Abstract
On November 1, 2001, the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service published a direct final rule. (See 66 FR 55068-55071, Docket No. 01-055-1.) The direct final rule notified the public of our intention to amend the animal importation regulations by adding Rhode Island to the list of States approved to receive certain stallions and mares imported into the United States from regions affected with contagious equine metritis (CEM). We did not receive any written adverse comments or written notice of intent to submit adverse comments in response to the direct final rule.
