Section 361 of the Public Health Service Act (42 USC 264) (Attachment 1) authorizes the Secretary of Health and Human Services to make regulations necessary to prevent the introduction, transmission, or spread of communicable diseases from foreign countries into the United States. Existing regulations governing quarantine activities (42 CFR 71.53) (Attachment 2) provide for the registration of importers of nonhuman primates by the Director, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), contingent upon the importers meeting certain recordkeeping, reporting, and disease control requirements to be established by the Director. Those recordkeeping, reporting, and disease control requirements are approved under OMB Control No. 0920-0134 (Foreign Quarantine Regulations).
