Peru's INRENA new rule

[Greenthings]

Did the two labs you refer to as not being included actually file the parer work to request a permit? And then follow through with the long, completely ridiculous process INRENA has for granting any permit?

Not certain, but one of them may have. The point is that the initiative to use as many labs as are available should have come from the department charged with the conservation/preservation of endangered species, in this case INRENA. That did not happen; in fact they waited one full year(to May 2003)to do anything at all, even though they were reminded/urged in June 2002 to take action.
