The Federal Select Agent Program (FSAP) is pleased to announce two updates to the APHIS/CDC Form 2, Request to Transfer Select Agents and Toxins, in the electronic Federal Select Agent Program (eFSAP) information system.
- The update removes question 4 regarding the PPQ permit number. The U.S. Department of Agriculture/Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service/Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ) has determined that a PPQ 526 permit (Permit to Move Live Plant Pests, Noxious Weeds, Soil, and Prohibited Plants) is no longer required for the importation or interstate/intrastate movement of the PPQ select agents listed in 7 CFR 331.3.
- The update also removes the block for the transfer extension from the APHIS/CDC Form 2, as the regulations do not support transfer extension.
