| 03-31543 | Chronic Wasting Disease Herd Certification Program and Interstate Movement of Captive Deer and Elk | Proposed Rule | We are proposing to establish a herd certification program to eliminate chronic wasting disease from captive cervids in the United States. Participating deer and elk herds would have to follow program requirements for animal identification, testing, herd management, and movement of animals into and from herds. After 5 years of enrollment with no evidence of chronic wasting disease, a herd would be granted "certified" status. Owners of herds could enroll in a State program that we have determined has requirements equivalent to the Federal program, or could enroll directly in the Federal program if no State program exists. We are also proposing to establish interstate movement requirements to prevent the interstate movement of deer and elk that pose a risk of spreading CWD. These actions are intended to eliminate CWD from the captive deer and elk herds in the United States. | 2003-12-24 | 2003 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2003/12/24/03-31543/chronic-wasting-disease-herd-certification-program-and-interstate-movement-of-captive-deer-and-elk | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2003-12-24/pdf/03-31543.pdf | Agriculture Department; Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service | 12,22 | We are proposing to establish a herd certification program to eliminate chronic wasting disease from captive cervids in the United States.
