Sec. 93.306  Inspection at the port of entry.

    (a) Inspection shall be made at the port of entry of all horses 
imported from any part of the world except as provided in Secs. 93.318 
and 93.323. All horses found to be free from communicable disease and 
not to have been exposed thereto within 60 days prior to their 
exportation to the United States shall be admitted subject to the other 
provisions in this part; all other horses shall be refused entry. Horses 
refused entry, unless exported within a time fixed in each case by the 
Administrator of Veterinary Service, and in accordance with other 
provisions he or she may require in each case for their handling shall 
be disposed of as the Administrator may direct in accordance with 
provisions of section 2 of the Act of July 2, 1962 (21 U.S.C. 134a), or 
the provisions of section 8 of the Act of August 30, 1890 (21 U.S.C. 
103). Such portions of the transporting vessel, and of its cargo, which 
have been exposed to any such horses or their emanations shall be 
disinfected in such manner as may be considered necessary by the 
inspector in charge at the port of entry, to prevent the introduction or 
spread of livestock or poultry disease, before the cargo is allowed to 
land.
