Title: ●Branding Requirements for Bovines Imported Into the United States From Mexico 
Abstract:

This rulemaking would amend the regulations regarding the branding of bovines imported into the United States from Mexico. We are taking this action at the request of the Government of Mexico to address issues that have arisen with the branding requirement for these bovines. The changes we are proposing would help prevent inconsistencies in branding that can result in bovines being rejected for import into the United States.
