Abstract
We are amending the regulations that set out our procedures for recognizing the animal health status of regions. Specifically, we are requiring regions that have been granted status under the regulations to provide information, or allow us to access information, to confirm the regions' animal health status when we request it. This action is necessary to help prevent the introduction of foreign animal diseases into the United States.
