| 2016-01837 | Animal Welfare; Marine Mammals | Proposed Rule | We are proposing to amend the Animal Welfare Act regulations concerning the humane handling, care, treatment, and transportation of marine mammals in captivity. These proposed changes would affect sections in the regulations relating to variances and implementation dates, indoor facilities, outdoor facilities, space requirements, and water quality. We are also proposing to revise the regulations that relate to swim-with-the-dolphin programs. We believe these actions are necessary to ensure that the minimum standards for the humane handling, care, treatment, and transportation of marine mammals in captivity are based on current industry and scientific knowledge and experience. | 2016-02-03 | 2016 | 2 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2016/02/03/2016-01837/animal-welfare-marine-mammals | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2016-02-03/pdf/2016-01837.pdf | Agriculture Department; Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service | 12,22 | We are proposing to amend the Animal Welfare Act regulations concerning the humane handling, care, treatment, and transportation of marine mammals in captivity.
