Proposed SRM Disposal Permitting Process,Natalie Bragg,D.V.M.,M.Sc.,Animal Health and Production Canadian Food Inspection Agency,2,SRM Disposal,Intent of regulatory enhancementsminimize the risk of BSE transmission associated with the adulteration or cross-contamination of ruminant feeds during manufacture and distribution and misuse of feed on farmremoving SRM from feed and fertilizer suppliescontrolling the disposal of SRMs,3,Proposed Regulations,Except in accordance with a permit issued by the Minister,no person shallremove,receive,process,use,export or destroy SRM in any form;or remove,receive,process,use,export or destroy the carcasses of cattle that died or that were condemned before slaughter for human consumption.,4,Proposed Regulations,The Minister shall not issue a permit for the destruction of SRM or carcasses unless the destruction is to be by:incineration;or another method,that will ensure that the SRM or carcass will not be used as food for humans or animals and will not enter the environment in such a way that it could contaminate any water or food supply.,5,Proposed Regulations-Exemptions,Permits would not be required for on-farm disposal of SRM or dead stockdoes not apply in respect of specified risk material that was removed from cattle slaughtered on a farm or ranch.Or was removed from or is contained in,the carcasses of cattle that die on a premises,if neither any of the carcasses nor any part of any of the carcasses is removed from the premises.,6,Proposed Regulations-Exemptions,Consideration being given to exemption of SRM taken as laboratory specimens and being sent to a laboratory of appropriate biosecurity.,7,CFIA Working Policy on Assumed Acceptable Methods,Methods of disposal for SRM will include:Methods of treatment or containment that have been assessed by CFIA science branch to present negligible to very low risk of transmission of BSE to domestic ruminants,8,Scope of Disposal Risk Assessments,The scope is to evaluate the risk associated with new cases of BSE arising in cattle and other domestic ruminants emanating from various disposal methods of raw and/or rendered SRM.They provide:An evaluation of risks arising from BSE via Release and Exposure pathways,in connection with domestic ruminant population only.,Please note that wild animals have not been considered.Also,no other potential implications on public health,animal health and the environment posed by these disposal methods were considered.,9,Risk Estimate,The qualitative range used in the estimation of risk reflects the uncertainties associated with the BSE agent throughout the process.,BSE AGENT,UNCERTAINTIES IN HAZARD AND IN EXPOSURE,10,Probability Definitions,11,Risk Reduction Options and Assumptions,DISPOSAL OPTIONS,ALKALINE

Methods Approval/Permitting Process-Proposed,Premises receiving SRM for containmentapplication by operator of site for permit to receive SRMinspection by CFIA staffsite parameters must be similar to those in risk assessmentPermit to receive SRM may be issued by CFIA to the operator of the siteSRM remains SRM therefore no product is allowed to move from the site unless authorized by further permits.,18,Mass Composting,Worst case assumption of“no reduction in infectivity”usedcurrent lack of scientific dataresults in mass composting being considered as an intermediate processing of SRM,similar to rendering.Mass centralized facility vs on farmpermanent facilityoperating parameters controlled and monitoredcompliance with regulations,19,Mass Composting,Mass composting facility must apply for permit to receive SRM Facility will be inspected by CFIACFIA will have to satisfied that the facility can adequately contain the product received and the product leaving the facility Permit to receive and to process SRM may be issuedPermits to receive SRM will be required by recipients of compost and conditions will limit use to non agricultural applications.,20,Mass Composting Site Inspection Proposal Only,SeparationDomestic ruminants must not have contact with composting site and/or SRM on siteCompost to be covered(tarp,non-organic substrate)SignageStating site receives SRM as per Health of Animal RegulationsCleaningEquipment to be cleaned and disinfected or dedicated to SRM composting site,21,Mass Composting Site Inspection Proposal Only,Site PreparationImpermeable base?Sloping standard as per provincial regulationRun off collection systemLeachate Control SystemCompost requires a permit to leave site,22,On-Farm Disposal,On farm disposal of SRM is exempt from proposed CFIA permit requirements On farm burialOn farm compostingRisk estimate of BSE transmission from on farm burial is negligible.,23,On-Farm Composting,Due to worst case assumption that composting does not reduce infectivity,risk estimate of on farm composting is negligible to moderate.CFIA recommends on farm composting is not a preferred approachhowever:if on farm composting of SRM is undertaken in contained areaend product is not used on land to which ruminants have accessPermits would be required if end product left farm,as it is still considered to be SRM.,24,Permitting
