# §85.6. Interstate movement of pseudorabies vaccinate swine, except swine from qualified negative gene-altered vaccinated herds, not known to be infected with or exposed to pseudorabies.


Pseudorabies vaccinate swine, except swine from qualified negative gene-altered vaccinated herds, not known to be infected with or exposed to pseudorabies shall only be moved interstate in accordance with the following provisions:

- (a) **Movement of pseudorabies vaccinate swine, except swine from qualified negative gene-altered vaccinated herds, for slaughter.** Pseudorabies vaccinate swine, except swine from qualified negative gene-altered vaccinated herds, not known to be infected with or exposed to pseudorabies shall be moved interstate for slaughter only if:
  - (1) The swine are moved directly to a recognized slaughtering establishment or directly through one or more slaughter markets and then directly to a recognized slaughtering establishment;
  - (2) The swine are accompanied by a permit or owner-shipper statement and such permit or owner-shipper statement is delivered to the consignee; and
  - (3) **The swine are moved to destination in one continuous movement without unloading enroute.**
- (b) **Movement of pseudorabies vaccinate swine, except swine from qualified negative gene-altered vaccinated herds, to a quarantined herd or quarantined feedlot.** Pseudorabies vaccinate swine, except swine from qualified negative gene-altered vaccinated herds, not known to be infected with or exposed to pseudorabies shall be moved interstate directly to a quarantined herd or quarantined feedlot only if:
  - (1) The swine are accompanied by a permit and such permit is delivered to the consignee; and
  - (2) The permit in addition to information described in [§ 85.1](/cfr/9/85.1.md) states: (i) The pseudorabies status of the herd; (ii) the identification of the swine required by [§ 71.19](/cfr/9/71.19.md) of this chapter; (iii) the date of the vaccination for pseudorabies; and (iv) that approval for the interstate movement has been issued by the State animal health official of the State of destination prior to the interstate movement of the swine.
- (c) **General movements.** Swine vaccinated for pseudorabies with a glycoprotein I (gpI) deleted gene-altered pseudorabies vaccine and not known to be infected with or exposed to pseudorabies, but that are not from a qualified negative gene-altered vaccinated herd, may be moved interstate to destinations other than those set forth in paragraphs [(a)](#a) and [(b)](#b) of this section only if:
  - (1) The swine are accompanied by a certificate and such certificate is delivered to the consignee; and
  - (2) The certificate, in addition to the information described in [§ 85.1](/cfr/9/85.1.md), states:
    - (i) The identification required by [§ 71.19](/cfr/9/71.19.md) of this chapter;
    - (ii) That each animal to be moved was vaccinated for pseudorabies with a gpI-deleted gene-altered pseudorabies vaccine;
    - (iii) That each animal to be moved was subjected to a gpI enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) or a gpI Particle Concentration Fluorescence Immunoassay (PCFIA) approved differential pseudorabies test no more than 30 days prior to the interstate movement and was found negative;
    - (iv) The date of the gpI ELISA or the gpI PCFIA approved differential pseudorabies test; and
    - (v) The name of the laboratory that conducted the gpI ELISA or the gpI PCFIA approved differential pseudorabies test.
