SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to the provisions of the Privacy
Act of 1974, as amended, 5 U.S.C. 552a, the U.S. Department of
Agriculture (USDA, the Department) Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service (APHIS) is rescinding the system of records notice, National
Animal Health Laboratory Network (NAHLN), USDA/APHIS-5, and removing it
from its inventory. This system was used to support activities
conducted by the agency and maintain records pursuant to its missions
and responsibilities authorized by the Animal Health Protection Act (7
U.S.C. 8301-8317); Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness
and Response Act of 2002 (Pub. L. 107-188); Homeland Security
Presidential Directive-7; and Homeland Security Presidential Directive-
9.
The purpose of NAHLN was to coordinate and network USDA's National
Veterinary Services Laboratories with the capacity, facilities,
professional expertise, and support of State and university
laboratories. The network provides an extensive infrastructure of
facilities, equipment, and personnel that is geographically accessible
in the event of an animal health emergency.
The Department is rescinding this system of records because the
records previously maintained in the system are now maintained within
the system of records titled ``Animal Health, Disease, and Pest
Surveillance and Management System, USDA/APHIS-15,'' which supports
APHIS' mission of protecting and improving the health, quality, and
marketability of animals within the United States and response to
animal health emergencies.
Rescinding the National Animal Health Laboratory Network notice
will have no adverse impacts on individuals as the records are covered
by and maintained under the Animal Health, Disease, and Pest
Surveillance and Management System, USDA/APHIS-15. This notice hereby
rescinds the National Animal Health Laboratory Network (NAHLN) system
of records notice as identified below.
SYSTEM NAME AND NUMBER:
National Animal Health Laboratory Network (NAHLN), USDA/APHIS-5.
HISTORY:
National Animal Health Laboratory Network (NAHLN), USDA/APHIS-5,
was published as a new system on August 18, 2010, in its entirety in
the Federal Register (75 FR 50987-50990; Docket No. APHIS-2008-0125).
There were no other published modifications.
Done in Washington, DC, this 16th day of October 2024.
Michael Watson,
Administrator, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service.
