to animal activities. The PHS Policy is 

applicable to all PHS-conducted or 

-supported activities (including 

research, research training, 

experimentation, biological testing, or 

related purposes) involving live 

vertebrate animals. 

The eighth edition of the Guide 

contains substantive changes and 

additions from the previous edition. To 

gain insight from institutions on the 

impact of changes to the Guide on their 

animal care and use programs, NIH 

seeks comments on whether it should 

adopt the eighth edition of the Guide. 

NIH simultaneously proposes an 

implementation plan for the eighth 

edition of the Guide and seeks 

comments on the proposed plan. 

The implementation plan proposed by 

NIH would require institutions to 

complete at least one semiannual 

program and facility evaluation, using 

the eighth edition of the Guide as the 

basis for evaluation, by March 31, 2012. 

For such an evaluation to be considered 

complete by NIH, it would need to 

include reasonable and specific plans 

and schedules for corrections of 

deficiencies where appropriate.
