Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service
Title: National Animal Health
Monitoring System; Cervid 2014 Study.
OMB Control Number: 0579–NEW.
Summary of Collection: Collection
and dissemination of animal health data
and information is mandated by 7
U.S.C. 391, the Animal Industry Act of
1884, which established the precursor of
the Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service (APHIS), Veterinary Services
(VS), the Bureau of Animal Industry.
Legal requirements for examining and
reporting on animal disease control
methods were further mandated by 7
U.S.C. 8308 of the Animal Health
Protection Act, ‘‘Detection, Control, and
Eradication of Diseases and Pests,’’ May
13, 2002. The National Animal Health
Monitoring System (NAHMS) will
initiate the first national data collection
for cervids through the Cervid 2014
study, focusing on cervid operations.
The study is designed to fulfill a critical
gap in NAHMS’ knowledge of the cervid
industry.
Need and Use of the Information:
APHIS will use the data collected to: (1)
Establish national statistics on
management and marketing for
producers, veterinary, and industry
references; (2) Address emerging issues
for cervid operations; (3) Plan for
response to animal disease events by
better understanding the needs and
management practices of cervid
operations; and (4) Provide input into
the design of surveillance systems for
specific diseases. If this type of
information is not collected, the U.S.’
ability to predict likely disease spread
scenarios and detect trends in
management, production, and health
status on cervid operations would be
limited.
