9 CFR Part 161

[Docket No. APHIS-2017-0065]
RIN 0579-AE40


National Veterinary Accreditation Program; Correction

AGENCY: Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, Agriculture (USDA).

ACTION: Correcting amendment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In a final rule that was published in the Federal Register on 
February 25, 2020, and effective on March 26, 2020, we amended the 
regulations governing the National Veterinary Accreditation Program by, 
among other things, replacing all instances of the term ``Veterinarian-
in-Charge'' with the term ``Veterinary Official.'' However, we 
inadvertently left two instances of the term ``Veterinarian-in-Charge'' 
in the regulations. This document corrects that oversight in the final 
rule.

DATES: Effective July 13, 2020.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dr. Todd Behre, Coordinator, National 
Veterinary Accreditation Program; National Animal Disease Traceability 
and Veterinary Accreditation Center, APHIS Veterinary Services; (518) 
281-2157; [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On February 25, 2020, we published in the 
Federal Register (85 FR 10562-10565, Docket No. APHIS-2017-0065) a 
final rule that amended the National Veterinary Accreditation Program 
regulations in 9 CFR parts 160, 161, and 162. Among other changes to 
these regulations, we replaced the term ``Veterinarian-in-Charge'' with 
the term ``Veterinary Official'' throughout. However, in Sec.  
161.1(e)(4), we inadvertently left two instances of ``Veterinarian-in-
Charge'' unchanged. This document corrects that error.
