## Abstract

We are amending the regulations by adding Denmark to the list of regions where bovine spongiform encephalopathy exists because the disease has been detected in a native-born animal in that region. Denmark has been listed among the regions that present an undue risk of introducing bovine spongiform encephalopathy into the United States. Therefore, the effect of this final rule is a continued restriction on the importation of ruminants that have been in Denmark and meat, meat products, and certain other products of ruminants that have been in Denmark. This final rule is necessary in order to update Denmark's disease status regarding bovine spongiform encephalopathy.
