Sec. 372.1  Purpose.

    These procedures implement section 102(2) of the National 
Environmental Policy Act by assuring early and adequate consideration of 
environmental factors in Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service 
planning and decisionmaking and by promoting the effective, efficient 
integration of all relevant environmental requirements under the 
National Environmental Policy Act. The goal of timely, relevant 
environmental analysis will be secured principally by adhering to the 
National Environmental Policy Act implementing regulations (40 CFR parts 
1500-1508), especially provisions pertaining to timing (Sec. 1502.5), 
integration (Sec. 1502.25), and scope of analysis (Sec. 1508.25).
