Abstract: The ISIRP supports meat and poultry slaughter and processing facilities in making facility improvements and carrying out other planning activities necessary to attain Federal inspection and allow for interstate shipment.

Emergency Justfication: The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 (CAA) directs the Secretary of Agriculture to make available $60 million for the period of fiscal years 2021 through 2023. Given the limited time remaining in this fiscal year, meat and poultry slaughter and processing facilities are mandated by the CAA to develop appropriate grant applications for the 2021 fiscal year program and the Department is mandated to adequately evaluate these new proposals and obligate the funds. Accordingly, we request emergency approval of the information collection, so that the Department can allocate the grant funds as required by the CAA.
