运载牲畜车辆清洗规则改变计划令人担忧

　　CANADA -Western Canadian pork producers are encouraged to contact their federal MPs to express concern over planned changes in washing requirements for livestock vehicles returning from the US, writes Bruce Cochrane. Canadian Food Inspection Agency regulations require trucks and trailers that visit US swine farms to be washed and disinfected in the US before re-entering Canada. However, an exemption introduced as part of a pilot project in Manitoba in 2014, to reduce the risk of spreading PED, allows vehicles to be sealed at the border and taken to a certified truck wash in Manitoba. As of October 1, that exemption will end.

　　加拿大——西部加拿大猪肉生产商被鼓励联系他们的联邦议员，对计划要从美国回来的运载牲畜车辆洗涤要求改变表示担忧，布鲁斯·科克伦写道。加拿大食品检验署条例要求，去过美国农场的卡车和拖车在重新进入加拿大之前要在美国清洗和消毒。然而，豁除了对作为一个试点项目的曼尼托巴省的要求，2014年为了减少PED病毒蔓延的风险，允许车辆在边境密封，并带到马尼托巴省的一个经认证的地方进行清洗。10月1日该豁免将结束。
