E8–31369 Filed 1–2–09; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 3410–34–P DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service [Docket No. APHIS–2008–0144] Notice of Intent To Destroy Outdated Hog Cholera Vaccine Seed Stock AGENCY: Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, USDA. ACTION: Notice. production, vaccine manufacturers and farmer cooperatives involved in vaccine production and distribution were required to surrender vaccine seed stocks and remaining product inventory to the U.S. Department of Agriculture for safekeeping. This material has remained securely stored at the National Veterinary Services Laboratories (NVSL) in Ames, IA, since that time. All of this material is now outdated, and the most recent inventory of the stored product revealed a significant deterioration of packaging and labeling that makes accurate identification of the virus stocks difficult, and raises additional concerns regarding whether such material can continue to be safely stored given the deteriorating condition of its packaging. Thus, we are advising interested parties that, unless substantial issues are raised in response to this notice, APHIS intends to destroy all remaining seed stocks and other material collected from producers/ cooperators in response to the ban on hog cholera vaccine and serum production following the close of the comment period for this notice (see DATES above). The destruction of those materials will be accomplished by autoclaving and/or incineration on site at NVSL. Done in Washington, DC, this 23rd day of December 2008.
