| 2018-17554 | Conditions for Payment of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza Indemnity Claims | Rule | We are adopting as a final rule, with changes, an interim rule that amended the regulations pertaining to certain diseases of livestock and poultry to specify conditions for payment of indemnity claims for highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI). The interim rule provided a formula allowing us to split such payments between poultry and egg owners and parties with which the owners enter into contracts to raise or care for the eggs or poultry based on the proportion of the production cycle completed. That action was necessary to ensure that all contractors are compensated appropriately. The interim rule also clarified an existing policy regarding the payment of indemnity for eggs destroyed due to HPAI and required a statement from owners and contractors, unless specifically exempted, indicating that at the time of detection of HPAI in their facilities, they had in place and were following a biosecurity plan aimed at keeping HPAI from spreading to commercial premises. | 2018-08-15 | 2018 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2018/08/15/2018-17554/conditions-for-payment-of-highly-pathogenic-avian-influenza-indemnity-claims | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2018-08-15/pdf/2018-17554.pdf | Agriculture Department; Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service | 12,22 | We are adopting as a final rule, with changes, an interim rule that amended the regulations pertaining to certain diseases of livestock and poultry to specify conditions for payment of indemnity claims for highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI).
