UPDATED JULY 2, 2007 *** |
With the beginning of 2007,
the Northwest Pilot Project
(NWPP) entered its final
phase. As of December 31,
2006, the temporary database
of the NWPP was closed to
additional data entry by
participants to allow for
analysis of final results
and tabulation of project
statistics. Final reports on
the findings of the project
are currently under
development to again
emphasize to USDA the issues
that are important to the
Northwest as the National
Animal Identification System
(NAIS) is further developed
and implemented.
Please note that the NWPP website (www.northwestpilot.org) officially closed July 1, 2007. Project participants are no longer able to access their uploaded entries.
In the documents section
below, you will find a copy
of the NWPP’s final
newsletter.
As the NWPP concludes during
the spring of 2007, please
contact the Idaho Cattle
Association (ICA) office in
Boise if you have questions,
comments, or need additional
information. The ICA can be
reached at (208) 343-1615 or
info@idahocattle.org.
