"2. Field plots should meet the criteria specified in Appendix L-II-D: 
"Appendix L-II-D. Plants are grown in controlled access fields under 
specified conditions appropriate for the plant under study and the 
geographical location. Such conditions should include provisions for 
using good cultural and pest control practices, for physical isolation 
frcm plants of the same species outside of the experimental plot in 
accordance with pollination characteristics of the species, and for 
further preventing plants containing recombinant DNA frcm becoming 
established in the environment. Review by the IBC should include an 
appraisal by scientists knowledgeable of the crop, its production 
practices, and the local geographical conditions. Procedures for 
assessing alterations in and the spread of organisms containing recom- 
binant DNA must be developed. The results of the outlined tests must 
be submitted for review by the IBC. Copies must also be submitted to 
the Plant Working Group of the RAC. 
"Supporting data should include the following: 
"a. total area; 
"b. geographical location(s): where, hew many locations; 
"c. plot design: for example, replication, row spacing, nature of 
border rews ; 
"d. specify plant monitoring procedures: frequency; types of data to 
be obtained, including leaf, seed, fruit, or root characteristics;
