The U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) approved an application from Monsanto to plant genetically engineered alfalfa seeds that resist Monsanto’s Roundup herbicide. Several environmental groups brought suit to stop the planting because the USDA did not complete an EIS in carving out an exception for genetically engineered crops. The fear is that the crops contain a bacterial gene that allows farmers to spray their fields for weeds without harming the alfalfa or other crops because the bacteria allows the crops to resist the weed spray. When is an EIS required? a. When an EIS is demanded by environmental groups. b. When a federal agency is taking action that could impact the environment. c. When animal life is affected by federal agency action. d. When a federal agency takes any action.
