Rescission of February 4, 2004, Order and Subsequent Amendments Prohibiting the Importation of Birds and Bird

Thu, Aug 13 2009 11:00:00 GMT

On January 21, 2009, CDC published a notice in the Federal Register (74 FR 3608) announcing its intent to rescind its February 4, 2004 order and subsequent amendments prohibiting the importation of birds and bird products from specified countries based on the threat that imports from such countries increases the risk that highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) may be introduced into the United States. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) has implemented and continues to enforce regulations to prohibit or restrict the importation of birds, poultry, and unprocessed birds and poultry products from regions that have reported the presence of highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 in poultry. While USDA/APHIS actions are based primarily on protecting the U.S. commercial poultry industry from the introduction of highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1, these actions have the added benefit of mitigating the risk of human exposure to the virus.

Request for Research Sites To Measure Composition of Sealed Area Atmosphere in Coal Mines

Tue, Apr 14 2009 11:00:00 GMT

The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), is seeking research sites to measure composition of sealed area atmosphere in coal mines.

NIOSH seeks to conduct scientific studies of the composition of sealed area atmospheres and the mechanisms of methane accumulation within sealed areas. Research questions to be addressed are: (1) Whether potentially explosive gas mixtures exist within sealed areas, (2) how extensive such mixtures might be, (3) how the gas composition changes over time, (4) whether methane layering exists, (5) the homogeneity of the atmosphere, and (6) how barometric pressure changes impact the sealed atmosphere. NIOSH will document measurements of the composition of the sealed area atmosphere over time, analyze the [[Page 17203]]

The Protocol, originally published in the Federal Register in 1999 (64 FR 14086) and revised in the Federal Register on March 14, 2008 (73 FR 13903), implements the requirement of the Comprehensive Smokeless Tobacco Health Education Act (CSTHEA) of 1986 (15 U.S.C. 4401 et seq., Pub. L. 99252) that each person
manufacturing, packaging, or importing smokeless tobacco products shall annually provide the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) with a specification of the quantity of nicotine contained in each smokeless tobacco product. CDC republished the notice in the Federal Register on June 23, 2008 (73 FR 35395) concerning the revision of the Protocol (1) To make a technical change to correct the date when the first report of information under the revised Protocol is due and (2) to solicit public comments concerning a change in the Protocol that increas
