| LSA Document # | 26-302 | |
| Subject Matter | The proposed rule updates Indiana’s brucellosis and pseudorabies regulations for swine. Both diseases have progressed from eradication to surveillance phases, making many outbreak‑related provisions unnecessary. The rule repeals outdated sections, makes technical corrections, and updates USDA standards for pseudorabies. It retains voluntary herd status programs that may benefit producers in the marketplace. These changes also support Executive Order 25‑17 by reducing regulatory requirements. | |
