(1) Lime-sulphur dip, other than proprietary brands thereof, made in the proportion of 8 pounds of unslaked lime (or 11 pounds of commercial hydrated lime, not airslaked lime) and 24 pounds of flowers of sulphur or sulphur flour to 100 gallons of water.

(2) Nicotine dip, other than proprietary brands thereof, containing not less than five one-hundredths of 1 percent of nicotine.

(3) Dip made from specifically permitted proprietary brands of wettable powders containing 25 percent lindane (gamma isomer of benzene hexachloride) as the active ingredient and maintained throughout the dipping operation at a concentration between 0.05 and 0.06 percent. Animals treated with such dip should not be slaughtered for food purposes until the expiration of such period as may be required under the Meat Inspection Act (21 U.S.C. 71 et seq.). The length of this required period shall be specified on each certificate issued by the Division or State inspector or accredited veterinarian who supervises the dipping with such dip.

(4) Toxaphene dip, specifically permitted proprietary brand emulsions, made and maintained at a concentration of 0.5 percent. Animals treated with such dip should not be slaughtered for food purposes until the expiration of such period as may be required under the Meat Inspection Act (21 U.S.C. 71 et seq.). The length of this required period shall be specified on each certificate issued by the Division or State inspector or accredited veterinarian who supervises the dipping with such dip.

(b) Proprietary brands of toxaphene, lindane, lime-sulphur, or nicotine dips may be used in official dipping only after specific permission therefor has been issued by the Division."

(c) The dipping bath for the limesulphur and nicotine dips must be used at a temperature of 95° to 105° F., and must be maintained at all times at a strength of not less than 11⁄2 percent of "sulphide sulphur" in the case of the lime-sulphur dip, and not less than five one-hundredths of 1 percent of nicotine

2 Names of such brands may be obtained from the Division or a Division inspector.

in the case of the nicotine dip, as indicated by the field tests for such baths approved by the Division. The dipping bath for toxaphene emulsions must be kept within a temperature range of 40°80° F., and at a concentration between 0.5 and 0.6 percent during dipping operations. The dipping bath for lindane wettable powders must be constantly agitated by means of compressed air injected along the bottom and sides of the vat from a suitable air compressor that delivers sufficient air volume to cause bubbling of the vat contents along the entire length of the vat. The air compressor shall be connected by means of a hose or other satisfactory plumbing connections to a 14-inch pipe containing two rows of holes directed downward and outward. The holes shall be 116 inch in diameter and be spaced on 5-inch centers, and the pipe shall be situated along the center of the vat floor extending the entire length of the lowermost portion of the vat.

(d) Before a dip, other than those specified in this section, is approved as a permitted dip for the eradication of scabies in sheep, the Division will consider, among other things whether the strength of the bath prepared therefrom may be satisfactorily determined in the field by a practical portable testing outfit, and whether, under actual field conditions, the dipping of sheep in a bath of definite strength will effectually eradicate scabies infection without injury to the animals dipped.

The field test for lime-sulphur dipping baths is described in U.S. Department of Agriculture Bulletin 163, for sale by the Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402, at 5 cents a copy. A field test outfit at present approved by the Division for nicotine-dipping baths is that designated for the purpose of identification as "Field test outfit N-3." (Description available on application to the Department.)

Care must be exercised in dipping animals and in maintaining the bath at the standard concentration when using any permitted dip. Detailed instructions will be issued for the guidance of employees who may be called upon to to use them in the scabies eradication program.

§ 76.2

Notices relating to existence of hog cholera; prohibition of movement of virulent virus; spread of disease through raw garbage; regulations; quarantines; eradication States; and free States.

(a) Notice is hereby given that hog cholera exists in swine in each State except those designated in paragraphs (f) and (g) of this section.

(b) Notice is hereby given that the Administrator has determined that the prohibition of the interstate movement of virulent hog cholera virus, with the exceptions as specified in § 76.4, is necessary in order to effectuate the eradication of hog cholera.

(c) Notice is hereby given that there is reason to believe raw garbage is one of the primary media through which the contagion of hog cholera, swine erysipelas, trichinosis, tuberculosis, or other contagious, infectious, or communicable diseases of swine is disseminated, and that one or more of such diseases exists in each State. Notice is hereby given that there is reason to believe that if certain foreign diseases, such as footand-mouth disease and African swine fever, gain entrance into the United States, the contagion of such diseases may be spread through the medium of raw garbage. Therefore, the regulations in this part are deemed necessary in order to more effectually prevent, suppress, and extirpate such diseases, to prevent the interstate spread thereof, and to guard against the dissemination of diseases from foreign countries.

(d) Notice is hereby given that in order to effectually suppress and extir

pate hog cholera and other contagious, infectious, and communicable diseases of swine, to prevent the spread and dissemination of the contagion thereof and to protect the livestock of the United States, the regulations in this part are promulgated to govern the interstate movement of swine and swine products.

(e) There are no areas presently quarantined under the regulations in this part because of hog cholera or other contagious, infectious, or communicable disease of swine.

(f) Notice is hereby given that there is no clinical evidence that the virus of hog cholera exists in swine in the following States, that systematic procedures are in effect to detect and eradicate the disease should it appear within any of such States, and that such States are hereby designated as hog cholera eradication States:

(g) Notice is hereby given that a period of more than 1 year has passed since there has been clinical evidence that the virus of hog cholera exists in the following States, that more than 1 year has passed since systematic procedures were placed in effect to exclude the virus of hog cholera and to detect and eradicate the disease should it appear within any of such States, and that the virus of hog cholera has been eradicated from such States and such States are hereby designated as hog cholera free States:

(a) In specific cases and under such conditions as he may impose, the Director of the Animal Health Division may authorize the interstate movement of stated quantities of virulent hog cholera virus for particular purposes, if he determines that such movement will not endanger swine or impair the hog cholera eradication program. Such movements shall be accompanied by a permit from the appropriate official of the State of destination and a certificate issued by the Animal Health Division specifying any such conditions imposed regarding the specific shipment.

(b) In specific cases and under such conditions as he may impose, the Director of the Veterinary Biologics Division may authorize the interstate movement of stated quantities of virulent hog cholera virus for export, research, or biologics production, if he determines that such movement will not endanger swine or impair the hog cholera eradication program. Such interstate movements for purposes other than export shall be accompanied by a permit from the appropriate official of the State of destination and all such movements shall be accompanied by a certificate issued by the Veterinary Biologics Division specifying any such conditions imposed regarding the specific shipment.
