APHIS Posts New Animal Welfare Inspection Reports
US - APHIS is posting Animal Welfare inspection reports involving business entities that occurred after the Agency restricted the public’s access to the search tool for the Animal Care Inspection System on 3 February 2017, while the Agency conducts a comprehensive review of the information on its website.The newly posted inspection reports involve inspections that occurred between 10 January and 24 March 2017.
As part of the comprehensive review of information, APHIS is continuing to closely review animal inventories that accompany inspection reports.
For this reason, the newly posted inspection reports do not include animal inventories, though APHIS intends to make information regarding animal inventories available again in the future.
Consistent with the agency’s procedures for allowing time to consider and incorporate additional information, as appropriate, developed during appeals of inspection findings, inspections that occurred after 24 March 2017, are not yet ready for release.
