OutlineOutline• Background
• History of poultry database and identifying premises in 2004, 2005 AI
• Moving Forward- Premise ID initiative
• National Initiatives (CCIA/ CLIA/ traceability)
• Benefits
BackgroundBackground
• Emergency preparedness has become an important initiative for poultry industry (past AI events in FV, media coverage AI around world)
• Without a system in place to accurately map and identify poultry premises and barns in affected areas, emergency response would be ineffective and potential exists for much greater economic losses
• Estimated 2004 AI outbreak cost BC Poultry Industry over $63 million, estimated gross economic cost of $380 million
HistoryHistory
• A database of poultry premises was created during the 2004 AI for the Emergency Response Command Centre
• Database: poultry premises, testing, contact information etc.
• Took time to compile information as it was not previously available in 1 database
HistoryHistory
• After the outbreak, database given back to 4 poultry boards to maintain with current information on all producers
• 4 boards: Angela McKee became lead
• Basic contact information recorded (address, phone, contact name etc)
• 2005 AI event: database and how properties were identified needed to be improved

Moving Forward Premise ID Initiative
Moving Forward Premise ID Initiative
• National Premise ID
• Canadian Livestock Identification Agency (CLIA) - Mike Dexter
• Canadian Cattle Identification Agency (CCIA) – Brett McConkey
• Premises “geo-referenced” – can be mapped quickly
• Contact information in central database
TraceabilityTraceability
Traceability includes 3 main elements:
1.Animal identification
2.Premises identification
3.Movement tracking
CLIA developed national standards

Premise ID InitiativePremise ID Initiative
CCIA- Premise Location Allocator
Premise Attributes:
• Legal land description / Jurol
• Contact information
• Type of Premise (Farm, barn, hatchery, rendering plant etc)
• Location of barns (x,y) - orthophotos
Premise ID InitiativePremise ID Initiative
• Information secure• Access controlled
Premise ID InitiativePremise ID Initiative
• Industry-led initiative (government supported)
Goals:
• To accurately, efficiently and uniquely identify all regulated BC poultry premises and barns while working towards full chain traceability
• To instill confidence in our stakeholders regarding our preparedness in a foreign animal disease situation
Premise ID Initiative- ObjectivesPremise ID Initiative- Objectives• To have a central database that contains
accurate premise and barn identification and contact information for all regulated BC poultry premises and barns
• To ensure the process and database is concurrent with national initiatives (CCIA/ CLIA)
• To assign a national alpha-numeric ID to all premises and barns
• To physically identify the premises and barns with highly visible signage with the national Premise ID

Premise ID InitiativePremise ID Initiative
• BC Poultry Industry Biosecurity and Emergency Response Strategic Plan (2005-2007)
• Goal 2: the BC poultry industry has an emergency response management plan in place to handle an infectious disease outbreak, by 2007
• Requires all farms and other required locations to be included in a “database” by Dec 31, 2006
National InitiativesNational Initiatives
• Ontario / Quebec / Manitoba
• National Hog Identification and Traceability System
– once systems in place and functional, program will become mandatory in 2008
BC Poultry Premise ID InitiativeBC Poultry Premise ID Initiative
• Want to pursue opportunities to include Specialty birds / backyard flocks
• A complete poultry database is critical to reduce response time, key in limiting impacts of an animal disease outbreak
• Only as good as the “weakest link”
BenefitsBenefits
• Quicker mapping of quarantine area
• First 24 hrs are the most important
• Provides quick response to limit disease spread
• Provides timely testing to move birds to market
• Minimizes down time
• Other emergencies- floods, water quality issues
