Handling of Animals; Contingency
Plans
AGENCY
: Animal and Plant Health
Inspection Service, USDA.
ACTION
: Final rule.
SUMMARY
: The Animal and Plant Health
Inspection Service issued a final rule on
December 31, 2012, to establish
regulations under which research
facilities and dealers, exhibitors,
intermediate handlers, and carriers must
meet certain requirements for
contingency planning and training of
personnel. Implementation of the final
rule was stayed on July 31, 2013, so that
the agency could conduct additional
review to further consider the impact of
contingency plan requirements on
regulated entities. Since that time, we
have conducted such a review, and the
2021 Congressional Appropriations Act
has required us to propose to lift the
stay. We are therefore lifting the stay
and making minor revisions to the
requirements in order to update
compliance dates and clarify intent. The
lifting of the stay and proposed
revisions will better ensure that entities
responsible for animals regulated under
the Animal Welfare Act are prepared to
safeguard the health and welfare of such
animals in the event of possible
emergencies or disasters.
DATES
: Effective January 3, 2022.
