aphis/ourfocus/animalhealth/animaland-animal-product-importinformation/animal-health-status-ofregions/. This list is referenced in 93.308 of the regulations.
Section 93.308a2ii of the regulations states that APHIS will add a region to the list referenced in 93.308a2 upon determining AHS
exists in the region, based on reports APHIS receives of outbreaks of the disease from veterinary officials of the exporting country, from the World Organization for Animal Health OIE, or from other sources the Administrator determines to be reliable.
On March 27, 2020, the veterinary authorities of Thailand reported to the OIE the occurrence of AHS in that country. In response to that report, on March 31, 2020, APHIS added Thailand to the list of regions where AHS exists.
On that same date, APHIS issued an import alert notifying stakeholders that effective March 27, 2020, APHIS
imposed restrictions on importation of equine and equine-derived commodities from Thailand due to AHS. This notice serves as an official record and public notification of that action.
Pursuant to the Congressional Review Act 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs designated this action as not a major rule, as defined by 5 U.S.C. 8042.
