Department of Agriculture (USDA) has called a meeting of pet-bird importers, their associations, and other interested persons to be held 10:00 a.m., Tuesday, Oct. 9, in Washington, D. C. Dr. Ernest E. Saulmon, deputy administrator of USDA’s Animal and Plant Health Insper'ion Service (APHIS) said the meeting is in response to industry comments on proposed regulations requiring com mercial bird importers to provide quarantine facilities before they may bring pet birds into the United States. (USDA press release 639-73). APHIS import-export officials and USDA legal officers will meet with the interested persons to consider criteria for the construction and use of such bird quarantine facilities. They ex plained that quarantine facilities are necessary to prevent the introduction of exotic New castle disease and other contagious diseases of poultry. A major consideration ex pressed in the industry com ments was the lack of quarantine facilities to serve small im porters, who cannot economically construct and maintain their own facilities. Birds must be kept isolated from domestic poultry and other birds for 30 days under conditions approved by USDA.
