9 C.F.R. § 162.10 Summary suspension of accreditation of veterinarians.
Title 9 - Animals and Animal Products
In any situation where the Administrator has reason to believe that any veterinarian accredited under the provisions of 9 CFR parts 160 and 161 of this subchapter has not complied with the “Standards for Accredited Veterinarian Duties” set forth in §161.3 of this subchapter, and deems such action necessary in order to prevent the introduction into the United States or the spread from one State to another of a contagious, infectious, or communicable disease of animals, or to insure that animals intended or offered for export to foreign countries are free from disease, the Administrator may suspend the accreditation of such veterinarian pending final determination in the proceeding, effective upon oral or written notification, whichever is earlier. In the event of oral notification, a written confirmation thereof shall be given to such veterinarian pursuant to §1.147(b) of the Uniform Rules of Practice (7 CFR 1.147(b)) as promptly as circumstances permit. Such suspension shall have no relevance with respect to the final determination in the proceeding.
