Abstract
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is withdrawing the final rule "Designation of Product Categories for Federal Procurement" published April 1, 2013, at 78 FR 19393. The final rulemaking, which amended the Guidelines for Designating Biobased Products for Federal Procurement, to add eight sections to designate product categories within which biobased products will be afforded Federal procurement preference, was published prematurely due to an oversight in the development process.
