Nonsubstantive Change

ICR 0579-0327


April 14, 2020


VS Form 1-65 and 1-66 were merged into an updated and revised VS Form 1-64 to become one form. The revised form, when used in conjunction with the new Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) Program Standards Guide, simplifies the identification device approval process without adding any additional burden on respondents.


The revised VS Form 1-64 also corrects an error with the previous version which mistakenly required Full ICAR certification for identification devices.  There are different levels of certification for identification and only a few tags in the world that meet the Full ICAR standard; full ICAR certification is expensive and unnecessary.  The revised form removes this requirement and replaces it with the appropriate level of testing and certification.


The form and the standard guide were undergoing a Congressional Review which did not conclude until this month.
