Sec. 93.207  Inspection at the port of entry.

    Inspection shall be made at the port of entry of all poultry 
imported from any part of the world except as provided in Secs. 93.215 
and 93.220. All poultry found to be free from communicable disease and 
not to have been exposed thereto within 90 days prior to their 
exportation to the United States shall be admitted subject to the other 
provisions in this part; all other poultry shall be refused entry. 
Poultry refused entry, unless exported within a time fixed in each case 
by the Administrator, 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 poultry 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.
