• Dominican Republic is leading the ASF response. USDA is assisting with eradication and providing additional testing support.

• USDA is enhancing ASF mitigation efforts in Puerto Rico, including speeding up the 6-year plan to eradicate feral swine from the island.

• CBP is employing a layered approach, focused on cargo and people traffic, to monitor for potential ASF risk factors entering the U.S.   

• ASF in the Western Hemisphere creates unique challenges with smaller planes and boats and multiple ports of entry; CBP is working to mitigate these ports' risks.
