dropped as a party to this venture.

activity of the group research project. Membership in this group 
research project remains open, and Spray Drift Task Force intends to 
file additional written notification disclosing all changes in 
membership.
    On May 15, 1990, Spray Drift Task Force filed its original 
notification pursuant to section 6(a) of the Act. The Department of 
Justice published a notice in the Federal Register pursuant to section 
6(b) of the Act on July 15, 1990 (55 FR 27701).
    The last notification was filed with the Department on November 1, 
2000. A notice has not yet been published in the Federal Register.
