We are proposing to amend the regulations pertaining to the importation of horses to establish standards for the approval of
permanent, privately owned quarantine facilities for horses. We are taking this action because demand for quarantine services for horses exceeds the space available at existing facilities. This proposed rule
replaces a previously published proposed rule, which we are withdrawing as part of this document, that contained substantially different restrictions on ownership and substantially different requirements for
the physical plant, operating procedures, and compliance date. We believe that allowing imported horses to be quarantined in permanent, privately owned quarantine facilities that meet these newly proposed
criteria would facilitate the importation of horses while continuing to protect against the introduction of communicable diseases of horses.
