THEY SERVE AS A CRITICAL RESOURCE FOR STREAMLINED CONTROL AREA SURVEILLANCE WHEN AN H5 OR H7 DETECTION OCCURS. THEY WILL MAINTAIN PRODUCER GROWER AND COMPANY CONTACT INFORMATION, WHICH IS SHARED WITH EMRS FOR ACCURATE AND RAPID PLANNING IN RESPONSES. THEY MAINTAIN AND UPDATE ALL REVISIONS OF THE INITIAL STATE RESPONSE AND CONTAINMENT PLAN (ISRCP), WHICH SERVES AS THE TEMPLAT E FOR RESPONSE WHEN A POULTRY DISEASE OUTBREAK OCCURS, AND PROVIDES FOR EDUCATION AND TRAINING OF INDUSTRY PARTNERS. DELIVERABLE AND EXPECTED OUTCOMES FOR THE COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT WILL CENTER AROUND FOUR OBJECTIVES, TO INCLUDE GENERAL AVIAN HEALTH SUPPORT, LABORATORY DIAGNOSTICS, TRAINING, AND PREPAREDNESS AND RESPONSE. GENERAL AVIAN SUPPORT WILL INCLUDE APPROXIMATELY 48 BIOSECURITY AUDITS THAT WILL ENSURE CODE OF REGULATION COMPLIANCE.
