WASHINGTON, D.C. - The next
drawing for quarantine space for
cattle to be imported from Brazil
and Europe through the U.S.
Department of Agriculture’s
Harry S Truman Animal Import
Center at Key West Fla., will be
held May 24.
“The lottery for cattle from
Brazil is scheduled to start at 9
a.m. in room 643 A, Federal
Building, 6505 Belcrest RD.,
HyattsvUle, Md.,” John Atwell,
deputy administrator of USDA’s
Animal and Plant Health In
spection Service, said. “The
drawing for European cattle will
follow immediately.”
The next importation of cattle
from Brazil should be aide to enter
the Truman center in August,
while cattle from Europe could
enter in December.
“The fees for importing cattle
from countries affected with foot
and-mouth disease through this
high-security, offshore quarantine
facility also have been revised,”
Atwell said.
“These charges will now be
divided into two parts,” he said.
“One part will apply to costs of
preliminary testing while cattle
are kept in on-farm isolation in the
country of origin. The second part
covers charges while the animals
are in quarantine at the USDA
approved port of embarkation and
while in quarantine at the Truman
center.
