Agenda

• Review January 23, 2024 notes

• 2026 Sunset: Fenbendazole (NPP) - discuss review

• 2026 Sunset: Moxidectin (KH) - finalize review

• Research Priorities (All) - discuss/finalize 

• Additional Items

• Adjourn

Discussion 

• January 23, 2024 notes were accepted as written.

• 2026 Sunset: Fenbendazole (NPP), Moxidectin (KH). The leads summarized the use of parasiticides. 

Both leads spoke with a couple of stakeholders/veterinarians to collect feedback about the use of these 

medicines and the current restrictions (annotations). The feedback they received is that in acute 

situations, moxidectin is a necessity for organic livestock; it should not be used as a routine practice. The 

annotation is robust. The LS supports re-listing as written and does not expect any controversy. A 

member mentioned that there is language in the Organic Livestock and Poultry Practices (OLPS) rule 

regarding parasite control plans, which will be implemented at the beginning of 2025. The LS will 

add/modify the questions and submit the final reviews for the Spring meeting.

• Research Priorities (All). The group reviewed the research priorities and the results of the prioritization

exercise. The LS will submit its top two priorities and three items that are ongoing priorities. 

• Additional Items. The Chair proposed a potential work request for the Food Technologists for a 

literature search/analysis on parasites across species and regions and will submit the request to the 

NOSB Chair and NOP. 

• The meeting was adjourned

Discussion 

• January 16, 2024 notes were approved with minor revisions. 

• 2026 Sunset: DL-Methionine (NPP). The LS reviewed the questions to stakeholders in the draft review, 

made some modifications, and discussed how to add some of the topics to Research Priorities. The lead 

will submit the review for the Spring meeting. 

• 2026 Sunset: Atropine (FQ). The lead summarized atropine, which is a naturally occurring substance 

produced from plants in the nightshade family. It is used in humans as well as livestock, and it is used 

only on the recommendation of a licensed veterinarian. There are restrictions about post-use handling 

of animals, so risks are low. The lead summarized international acceptance, and human and 

environmental health, and the group discussed classification. To glean more information, members 

suggested questions to stakeholders, and the LS will submit the review for the Spring meeting. 

• 2026 Sunset: Hydrogen peroxide (FQ). The lead summarized the review and noted the ancillary 

substances. Hydrogen peroxide is Generally Regarded as Safe (GRAS), considered safe at low doses, and 

the breakdown products are benign. There we no questions to stakeholders. The lead will submit the 

review to the NOP for the Spring meeting. 

• 2026 Sunset: Xylazine + Tolazoline (NPP). The lead thanked the previous lead for prior work, and 

summarized the two substances that are used in conjunction with each other in veterinary surgical 

procedures for livestock. Xylazine is used as a sedative, and tolazoline counteracts it. These substances 

are critical to humane livestock husbandry, and are controlled by veterinarians. The lead will complete 

the documents and submit them to the NOP for the Spring meeting. 

• Research Priorities (All). The lead gave a brief update on research priorities. He asked members to look 

at the current list and identify top 2 or 3 priorities out of the 7. The LS will complete the list on the next 

call. 

• Additional Items. None.

• The meeting was adjourned

Discussion 

• December 19, 2023 notes were accepted as written. 

• 2026 Sunset: Iodine (NL). The lead summarized the limited scope TR, and highlighted information 

regarding nonylphenol ethoxylates (NPEs). The TR was found sufficient, and the LS Chair will relay that 

information to the NOP. The lead also summarized the review for iodine, including its uses, 

manufacture, excipients, and human health and environmental issues. The LS finds iodine essential and 

is not proposing removal, however, they are interested in exploring an annotation to restrict the 

formulas to NPE-free versions. Members asked several questions about NPEs, and NOP pointed out 

previous work by the Crops Subcommittee on this topic: 

https://www.ams.usda.gov/sites/default/files/media/CSDDNPEApr2016.pdf. The lead will submit the 

review for the Spring meeting. 

• 2026 Sunset: Vitamins (BC). The lead summarized the review, noting the importance of vitamins in 

animal nutrition, and the fact that they are used in small amounts. The group discussed B vitamins 

specifically, and will include a question about the need/use. A member reminded the group about the 

terminology when talking about substances: For Crops and Livestock it’s “necessity”, and for Handling it 

is “essentiality”. The Chair will submit the final review for the Spring meeting. 

• 2026 Sunset: Moxidectin (KH). Deferred to later call. 

• 2026 Sunset: Fenbendazole (NPP). Deferred to later call.

• Research Priorities (All). Deferred to later call. 

• Additional Items. MET lead will provide the members will several questions by the end of the week for 

discussion on the next call. 

• The meeting was adjourned
