ANNUAL UPDATE FOR THE STATE AND FEDERAL COOPERATIVE BOVINE TUBERCULOSIS (TB) ERADICATION PROGRAM FISCAL YEAR(FY)2014

摘要

Development of Proposed Brucellosis/TB RegulationsAPHIS completed new regulations and supporting standards for the brucellosis and TB programs in FY2012. Under the proposed approach, the Code of Federal Regulations will provide the regulatory authority for the programs while the details of the programswill be described in a program standards document. These new regulations and supporting standards were under departmental review during FY2014. APHIS is hopeful that Proposed Rule and Program Standards will be published in early 2015. Upon publication, APHIS plans to provide an extended comment period of 90 days.
