SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DATES: mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES I. Background The Guide, first published in 1963, is a widely accepted primary reference on animal care and use. Recommendations in the Guide are based on published data, scientific principles, expert opinion, and experience with methods and practices that are determined to be consistent with high quality, humane animal care and use. The eighth edition of the Guide was published in January 2011 following a study by the Institute for Laboratory Animal Research of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS). The NAS study process began in 2008 and followed the requirements of Section 15 of the Federal Advisory Committee Act. The NAS study process is described at the NAS Web site: https://www.nationalacademies.org/ studyprocess/. Since 1985, the PHS Policy on Humane Care and Use of Laboratory Animals, authorized by Public Law 99– 158, 42 U.S.C. 289d, and incorporated by reference at 42 CFR 52.8 and 42 CFR 52a.8, has required that institutions receiving PHS support for animal activities base their animal care and use programs on the current edition of the Guide and comply, as applicable, with the Animal Welfare Act and other Federal statutes and regulations relating to animal activities. The PHS Policy is applicable to all PHS-conducted or -supported activities (including research, research training, experimentation, biological testing, or related purposes) involving live vertebrate animals. VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:18 May 10, 2011 Jkt 223001 The eighth edition of the Guide contains substantive changes and additions from the previous edition. To gain insight from institutions on the impact of changes to the Guide on their animal care and use programs, NIH seeks comments on whether it should adopt the eighth edition of the Guide. NIH simultaneously proposes an implementation plan for the eighth edition of the Guide and seeks comments on the proposed plan. The implementation plan proposed by NIH would require institutions to complete at least one semiannual program and facility evaluation, using the eighth edition of the Guide as the basis for evaluation, by March 31, 2012. For such an evaluation to be considered complete by NIH, it would need to include reasonable and specific plans and schedules for corrections of deficiencies where appropriate. II. Electronic Access The eighth edition of the Guide is available on the NIH Office of Laboratory Animal Welfare Web site at https://olaw.nih.gov. Dated: May 4, 2011. Francis S. Collins, Director, National Institutes of Health.
