2 ADT Report Assessment of ADT Framework Update on Traceability Performance Measures (TPM) Data related to program disease traces Successes & challenges Next priorities - where do we go from here? APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 2

3 ADT Key Principles Maintain and expand traceability infrastructure as disease programs are updated Administered by States & Tribal Nations Integrate strengths, expertise of States, Tribes & producers Effective solutions that minimize cost Support advanced technologies Basic bookend system Priority on cattle & bison sectors APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 3

4 General Requirements Livestock moved interstate, unless exempt, must: Be officially identified Have ICVI or other documentation 4 APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 4

5 ADT Assessment Report 5 APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 5

6 Key to Successful Traceability Timely retrieval of complete and accurate information APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 6 6

7 Traceability Performance Measures National baselines established in FY 2013 cooperative agreement period 1 st Comparison 2014 Cooperative agreement period Report compiled September 2015 Significant improvement in both hours & % successfully completed 2 nd Comparison 2015 Cooperative Agreement period Review key results in next slides APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 7

8 Traceability Performance Measures (TPM) Two key factors for each TPM: The elapsed time it takes to answer four specific questions defined by the TPMs The % of successfully completed TPMs APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 8

9 Traceability Performance Measures 1. In what State was an imported animal officially identified? Measures: Time it takes to determine the State/Tribe where an imported animal was officially identified APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 9

10 Traceability Performance Measures 2. Where in your State was the animal officially identified? Measures: Time it takes to determine the physical location in the State where the animal was officially identified APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 10

11 Traceability Performance Measures 3. From what State was an animal shipped? Measures: Time it takes to determine the State an imported animal was moved from when it moved interstate into the State APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 11

12 Traceability Performance Measures 4. From what location in your State was an exported animal shipped? Measures: Time it takes to determine the physical location an exported animal was shipped from when it moved interstate APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 12

13 Tuberculosis traces from Slaughter Unofficial Identification Total cases by identification type Successful Trace Traced Indirectly Unable to trace No Identification Official Identification Total APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 13

14 Compliance & Enforcement 9 CFR Part 86 Enforcement Actions Consultation Letters of Info. (or Equiv.) Cases Initiated with IES Producer Dealer Market Accredited Vet Slaughter Plant Other Sectors Trace Regs Outside Part 86 N/A 9 N/A 193 N/A 4 Total Part APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 14

15 How are we doing? The ADT program has been very successful in the context of the framework for covered livestock: Improved administration of official ID devices Improved quality of ICVI data Increased volume of electronic records Significant gaps exist in current framework APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 15

16 ADT Challenges Official identification requirement limited to interstate movements Potential for multiple points of congregation & local spread of disease prior to moving interstate. Records may not exist How do you trace a black cow with no identification? APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 16

17 ADT Challenges Official identification requirement limited to interstate movements Exemptions are confusing! Impossible to monitor & enforce compliance Moved intrastate Official ID or backtag Direct to slaughter ICVI Moved interstate APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 17

18 ADT Challenges Reliance on low-cost technology (visual only tags) Inability to read official identification at the speed of commerce Transcription of official identification on movement documentation o May mean the animal is handled multiple times o Issues with legibility & transcription errors APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 18

19 ADT Challenges Exclusion of beef feeder cattle in the official identification requirement Feeder cattle are not isolated from disease (face exposure through management, marketing & long-distance movement) Trade implications o Lack of full traceability domestically APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 19

20 ADT Challenges Requirements for collection of all identification devices & correlation to the carcass through final disposition Inconsistently applied due to: Inability to collect all identification at the speed of commerce Procedural issues at plants Turnover of plant personnel & lack of education APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 20

21 Outreach Next Steps Discussion on ADT Framework including: - What s working well - Gaps in traceability - Revisions to current framework - Long-tem objectives APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 21

22 Outreach Next Steps 1. Conference calls with State & Federal Animal Health Officials 2. Grassroots feedback at local levels obtained by State & Federal Animal Health Officials 3. Regional stakeholder meetings 4. State/Federal Working Group 5. National ADT Forum APHIS-VS APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 22 22

23 ADT Regional Public Meetings The public meetings will be held from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the following locations: April 11: Oklahoma City, OK April 13: Riverdale, MD April 20: Nashville, TN May 2: Bloomington, MN May 4: Denver, CO May 11: Rancho Cordova, CA May 24: Billings, MT 23 APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 23

24 ADT Regional Public Meetings Review ADT Framework Report on ADT Assessment Stakeholder Panel Open Microphone Session Breakout Group Discussions - Official Identification - Movement documents - Beef feeder cattle - Short & Long-term traceability goals 24 APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 24

25 2017 ADT Working Group Objective: To evaluate gaps in the initial traceability framework & provide options for advancing traceability in the future. Utilize the feedback from ADT 2017 outreach activities to develop a report with recommendations on the next phase for ADT. 25 APHIS-VS Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) 25
