Download as PDF mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES 6874 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 26 / Tuesday, February 9, 2016 / Notices chimpanzee and the social group in which the chimpanzee lives. Specifically, permissible research, as described in the ‘‘Standards of Care for Chimpanzees Held in the Federally Supported Chimpanzee Sanctuary System’’ at 42 CFR part 9, includes: • Visual observation; • Behavioral studies designed to improve the establishment and maintenance of social groups. These activities may cause stress as a result of novel interactions between chimpanzees and caregivers, but they are not considered invasive as long as they are intended to maximize the well-being of the chimpanzees; • Medical examinations as deemed necessary to oversee the health of the chimpanzees, in the least invasive manner possible. Collection of samples routinely obtained during a physical examination for processing during this time is also considered noninvasive since a separate event is not required; • Administration and evaluation of environmental enrichment used to promote the psychological well-being of the chimpanzees; and • Actions taken to provide essential medical treatment to an individual chimpanzee exhibiting symptoms of illness. This applies only to serious illness that cannot be treated while the chimpanzee remains within the colony. • Observational studies and collection of biomaterial in the wild without interfering with the chimpanzee is also permitted. These decisions apply to all new or competing renewals of grant applications, contract proposals, intramural protocols, and 3rd party projects. The NIH may issue future guidance about the permissible noninvasive research involving chimpanzees. Researchers are encouraged to contact their program officers for additional information or the Division of Program Coordination, Planning, and Strategic Initiatives at dpcpsi@od.nih.gov. The NIH’s decision to allow the support of noninvasive research involving the use of chimpanzees, as described in this notice, does not affect requirements for investigators and/or their institutions to obtain permits from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, if applicable, nor does it affect the responsibility to meet all applicable veterinary, colony, and husbandry obligations.
