To further facilitate the information

conduct a public workshop as part of 

the RFI process. The goals of the 

workshop are: (1) Provide an overview 

of the planned mission requirements of 

the BDM; (2) Provide the proposed BDM 

design; (3) Review analogous current 

and planned biological countermeasure 

development initiatives; (4) Gauge 

industry interest in the utilization of the 

BDM to enhance collaboration. This 

workshop is designed to provide 

information on the NBAF BDM and how 

it fits within the broader context of 

countermeasure development for 

protecting U.S. agriculture. A panel 

discussion is scheduled to give industry 

an opportunity to share lessons learned 

and insights on BDM related operations. 

Due to sequestration, the BDM public 

workshop originally scheduled for 

March 22, 2013 will be postponed until 

further notice. DHS and USDA will 

continue to welcome and accept the 

written responses and ideas on how best 

to utilize the BDM during the period of 

the RFI. Notice regarding rescheduling
