Abstract: Pursuant to the Animal Welfare Act (AWA), its Regulations (AWAR), and the Interagency Research Animal Committee (IRAC), any entity or institution that uses vertebrate animals for research, testing, or training purposes must have an oversight committee to evaluate all aspects of that institution’s animal care and use. To be in compliance, the NPS is responsible for managing and maintaining an Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) that has the experience and expertise necessary to assess and approve all research, testing, or training activities involving vertebrate animals on NPS managed lands and territories. All research, testing, or training projects involving animals taking place on NPS territories must be approved by the NPS IACUC prior to their commencement. Additional Issue for Comment: In coordination with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) the NPS proposes to utilize a new platform, Key Solutions eProtocol IACUC Software Module for Animal Subjects, to support the IACUC review and approval process. The eProtocol IACUC will help ensure that NPS staff and anyone else in any activities on NPS-managed lands and territories employ field methods that are consistent with current best practices that minimize discomfort, distress, and pain by facilitating effective and efficient communication between the IACUC and submitters and assisting with committee administration management. The NPS will jointly use the eProtocol IACUC platform to facilitate collaboration and coordination with the FWS AUC. The shared, but compartmentalized, FWS/NPS platform will allow the two bureaus to maintain separate committees and protocol submissions but share data and move VerDate Sep<11>2014 22:30 Oct 27, 2022 Jkt 259001 protocols and technical experts between the committees, as necessary.
