	Regarding the problem in California for beekeepers near orchards that 
are now growing seedless citrus, I received the following response to my 
letter of concern to State Senator Carole Migden regarding AB 771, the 
Seedless Mandarin Protection Area Act sic). She says it is to "reduce 
the risk of contamination in seedless varieties of citrus while also 
providing reasonable and necessary access to citrus for CA beekeepers. 
You might be happy to know that recent amendments removed the 2 mile 
buffer zone."
	This legislation has not come up for a vote yet.
