<div class="moz-cite-prefix">CRITICAL NEW INFORMATION. I HAVE BEEN
INFORMED JUST TODAY THAT THE END- AND HPAI-FREE CERTIFICATION OF
THESE EU COUNTIES <b>DOES NOT PERTAIN TO WILD BIRDS. <br>
</b><br>
According to Veterinary Services, your permits will now contain <i>*additional*
</i>restrictions for EU countries, including both those EU
countries that were considered to be END- and HPAI-free prior to
this new rule and those that were added to the END- and HPAI-free
list under this new rule. <br>
<br>
I have read and re-read the rule and I see NO BASIS WHATSOEVER for
this interpretation. And, in fact, the country disease status
website that I referred you to, below, makes no such distinction
and APHIS has never sent out a notice to this effect. This
information was communicated to me informally in an e-mail. In
fact, I'd actually made an inquiry prior to sending out the
notice, below, because the rule <i>*should</i>* actually remove
restrictions for the additional EU countries. I wanted to confirm
that. They never responded.<br>
<br>
I have protested to Veterinary Services that this interpretation
is not supported by its own regulation and will take it up the
chain of command as needed, but until it can get sorted out, this
means that for the EU countries, your choices are certificate of
origin (that it did not come from an END or HPAI country - and
these EU countries won't qualify for that status for wild bird
material) or treat.<br>
<br>
Again, I have lodged a protest but until such time as it is
resolved, you have no choice but to comply.<br>

Those who import birds/bird "stuff" (anything that was once part
of a bird) know that the permit conditions depend on the status
of your lab (are you USDA-certified as BSL2 or not) and the
origin of the bird/bird stuff.<br>
<br>
- Basically, USDA-certified BLS2 labs can import untreated
material from countries where there is END.<br>
- Labs that are not USDA-certified as BSL2 must treat material
from everywhere in the world except countries certified to be
free of both END and HPAI.<br>
- All labs, even those USDA-certified as BSL2, must treat
material from countries and regions where HPAI (any form, not
just H5N1) occurs.<br>
<br>
Treatment = USDA-approved treatment methods.<br>
<br>
The list of countries certified to be free of both END and HPAI
has now been expanded to include 25 EU countries:<br>
