| 2010-32371 | Brucellosis Class Free States and Certified Brucellosis-Free Herds; Revisions to Testing and Certification Requirements | Rule | We are amending the brucellosis regulations to reduce the amount of testing required to maintain Class Free status for States that have been Class Free for 5 or more years and have no Brucella abortus in wildlife. We are also removing the provision for automatic reclassification of any Class Free State or area to a lower status if two or more herds are found to have brucellosis within a 2-year period or if a single brucellosis-affected herd is not depopulated within 60 days. Further, we are reducing the age at which cattle are included in herd blood tests. We are also adding a requirement that any Class Free State or area with Brucella abortus in wildlife must develop and implement a brucellosis management plan approved by the Administrator in order to maintain Class Free status. Finally, we are providing an alternative testing protocol for maintaining the certified brucellosis- free status of dairy herds, which will give producers more flexibility for the herd certification process. These changes are necessary to refocus resources to control and prevent the spread of brucellosis and to protect and maintain the economic viability of the domestic livestock industry. | 2010-12-27 | 2010 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2010/12/27/2010-32371/brucellosis-class-free-states-and-certified-brucellosis-free-herds-revisions-to-testing-and | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2010-12-27/pdf/2010-32371.pdf | Agriculture Department; Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service | 12,22 | We are amending the brucellosis regulations to reduce the amount of testing required to maintain Class Free status for States that have been Class Free for 5 or more years and have no Brucella abortus in wildlife.
