(1) These rules may be called the Coastal Aquaculture Authority (Amendment) Rules, 2012. (2) They shall come into force on the date of publication in the Official Gazette. 2. In the Coastal Aquaculture Authority Rules, 2005, after Annexure-II, the following Annexure shall be added at the end, namely: “Annexure-II] Guidelines for Seed Production and Culture of Specific Pathogen Free (SPF) Penaeus monodon A. SPECIFIC PATHOGEN FREE STATUS OF BROOD STOCK REARING/NUCLEAR BREEDING FACILITY (1) — Shrimp that are maintained in the brood stock rearing facility or Nucleus Breeding Centre (NBC) should have a history of negative disease status documented through a surveillance programme, at least for the past two years.. (2) Specific Pathogen Free (SPF) implies that the facilities, operation and animals are free of the specifically listed pathogens {OIE (World Organisation for Animal Health) listed viruses and necrotizing hepatopancreatitis bacterium (NHPB)}; and the facility producing the Specific Pathogen Free stock should also have been certified for the Specific Pathogen. Free status by the designated agency of Government. B. QUARANTINE [art I ars 3(i)] AR BT UTA: STaTUITT (1) (2) (1) @) (3) (4) D. All the brood stock including post larvae (PL) meant for rearing into brood stock imported by hatcheries should undergo quarantine. This requirement is applicable to every stock brought into the country even if they are brought from the islands of Indian territory to the mainland. All the quarantine guidelines including biosecurity requirements, pre-border quarantine requirements, quarantine requirements, disinfection methods, etc. as provided for import of Specific Pathogen Free LZ. vannamei and as notified vide S.O. 2482 (E) dated 15" October, 2008. under the relevant provisions of Livestock Importation Act, 1898 (Act 9 of 1898) as amended from time to time shall be applicable in case of Specific Pathogen Free P. monodon too. IMPORT PERMIT AND PORT OF ENTRY The Coastal Aquaculture Authority (CAA) set up under the Coastal Aquaculture Authority Act, 2005 shall, (in consultation with Central Institute of Brackishwater Aquaculture (CIBA), Chennai, National Fisheries Development Board (NFDB), Hyderabad, Department of Animal Husbandry, Dairying and Fisheries (DAHD&F), Ministry of Agriculture, Government of India, Marine Products Export Development Authority (MPEDA), Kochi and All India Shrimp Hatcheries Association), decide the annual requirement of Specific Pathogen Free P. monodon brood stock if imported and shall grant permission for this purpose to the eligible hatcheries. The Technical Evaluation Committee consisting of representatives from Coastal Aquaculture Authority (CAA), National Fisheries Development Board (NFDB), Hyderabad, Department of Animal Husbandry, Dairying and Fisheries (DAHD&F) and Central Institute of Brackishwater Aquaculture (CIBA) shall shortlist the SPF P. monodon suppliers based on the SPF certification, genetic base and disease free status, etc. of the facilities and import of SPF P. monodon shall be permitted only from such suppliers. — The designated port of import of Specific Pathogen Free brood stock of P. monodon shall be Chennai. Suppliers of indigenously produced Specific Pathogen Free P. monodon brood stock shall also be approved by the Coastal Aquaculture Authority on the basis of the technical evaluation of the facilities and programme. SAFEGUARDS AND REGULATIONS FOR OPERATION OF HATCHERIES FOR SPF P. MONODON 1. Criteria for application to breed Specific Pathogen Free (SPF) P. monodon (1) Hatcheries engaged or intending to be engaged in shrimp seed production having the required biosecurity facilities as prescribed by Coastal Aquaculture Authority would be eligible to apply for registration with the Coastal Aquaculture Authority and for permission to import Specific Pathogen Free P. monodon brood stock or to acquire from 350d oer THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : EXTRAORDINARY [Parr II-—Sec. 3(i)] indigenous Specific Pathogen Free source and to produce and sell post larvae of Specific Pathogen Free P. monodon. (2) Approval of the hatchery for rearing Specific Pathogen Free P. monodon will be given by Coastal Aquaculture Authority after due inspection of the hatchery facilities by a team constituted by Coastal Aquaculture Authority for this purpose. (3) The hatchery facilities should have strict bio-security control through physical separation or isolation of the different production facilities which is a feature of good hatchery design. In existing hatcheries with no physical separation, effective isolation may also be achieved through the construction of barriers and implementation of process and product flow controls. (4) The hatchery facility should have a wall or fence around the periphery of the premises, ‘with adequate height to prevent the entry of animals and unauthorised persons. This will help to reduce the risk of pathogen introduction by this route, as well as improve overall security. 2. Sanitary requirement (1) Entrance to the hatchety should be restricted to the personnel assigned to work exclusively in this area and a record of personnel entering the facility should be maintained by the security personnel. (2) Hatchery staff should enter through a shower and dressing room, where they remove their street clothes and take a shower before entering another dressing room to put on working clothes and boots. At the end of the working shift, the sequence should be reversed. (3) There should be means provided for disinfection of vehicle tyres (tyre baths at the gate), feet (footbaths containing hypochlorite solution at >50 ppm active ingredient), and hands {bottles containing iodine, Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) (20 ppm and/or 70% alcohol)} to bé used upon entering and exiting the unit. 3. Water intake (1) Each functional unit of the hatchery should have independent water treatment facility and it should be isolated from all other water supply systems. Separate recirculation systems may be used for each functional unit of hatchery to reduce water usage and improve bio security, especially in high-risk areas. (2) Water for the hatchery should be filtered and treated to prevent the entry of vectors and pathogens that may be present in-the source water. This may be achieved by initial filtering through sub-sand well points, sand filters (gravity or pressure), or mesh bag filters into the first reservoir or settling tank. Following primary disinfection by chlorination, and after settlement, the water should be filtered again with a finer filter and then disinfected using ultraviolet (UV) light or ozone or both. [aT 117s 3(i) ] A Al UTA : ASTIN (3) The water supply system may include use of activated carbon filters, the addition of ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid (EDTA) and temperature and salinity regulation. 4. Water treatment and discharge of waste water. (1) The discharged water from the hatchery, should be held temporarily and treated with hypochlorite solution (20 ppm active chlorine for not less than 60 minutes) or other effective disinfectant prior to discharge. This is particularly crucial where the water is to be discharged to the same location as the abstraction point. (2) The seawater to be used in the facility must be delivered into a storage tank where it will be treated with hypochlorite solution (20 ppm active ingredient for not less than 30 minutes) followed by sodium thiosulphate (1 ppm for every ppm of residual chlorine) and strong aeration. (3) No waste water shall be released out of the hatchery without chlorination and dechlorination. Effluent Treatment System (ETS) should be designed to include this provision. 5. Disinfection of implements (1) Used containers and hoses must be washed and disinfected with hypochlorite solution (20 ppm) before further use. (2) Each brood stock holding tank should have a separate set of implements which must be clearly marked and placed near the tanks. Facilities for disinfection of all the implements at the end of each day's use should be available. 6. Brood stock in hatchery (1) Only Specific Pathogen Free brood stock cleared through the quarantine should be used in the hatchery tor seed production. (2) Use of brood Siok other than those certified as Specific Pathogen Free by the designated authority is strictly prohibited. (3) Hatcheries involved in Specific Pathogen Free P. monodon seed production should not use any other non-SPF species within the hatchery premises. 7. Seed Production and sale (1) Nauplii can be sold to other hatcheries only when permitted by the Coastal Aquaculture Authority. Only tested and certified post larvae should be sold. (2) Post larvae of Specific Pathogen Free P. monodon right from production to sale should be maintained at the SPF facility with proper biosecurity safeguards. I 16 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : EXTRAORDINARY [Part I-—Sec. 3(i)] (3) Post larvae should be sold only to the farmers who have registered with the Coastal Aquaculture Authority specifically for the culture of P. monodon since Specific Pathogen Free status cannot be retained at the farm level without the required biosecurity measures. A copy of the Certificate of Registration issued by the Costal Aquaculture Authority for culturing Specific Pathogen Free P. monodon should be retained by the hatchery operator for inspection. (4) Detailed record of the seed production as well as sale including the name and address of the buyer or farmer should be maintained. 8. Disease reporting and record maintenance (1) Any disease outbreak in the hatchery should be reported immediately to the Coastal Aquaculture Authority. (2) The hatcheries should maintain a record of the imported brood stock or indigenously certified brood stock of Specific Pathogen Free status with details of source, quantity imported or procured from indigenous sources, the number of mortality, eggs produced, naupli produced, post-larvae produced, post-larvae sold, name and address of the farmer to whom sold, date and number of the registration and permission certificate issued by the Coastal Aquaculture Authority and should report these in their quarterly compliance reports to be submitted to Coastal Aquaculture Authority as per the format given in Form-VI. 9. Inspection Coastal Aquaculture Authority authorised personnel shall visit peniokenily to check the status of the brood stock, the seed production and sale. 10. Destruction of stock at unauthorised hatcheries or farms During the inspection of hatcheries or farms by the inspection team of Coastal Aquaculture Authority, if any unauthorised seed production, sale of Specific Pathogen Free seed or culture of Specific Pathogen Free P. monodon is noticed, the Inspection Team should destroy such stock through application of any methods/means deemed fit. 11. Bank Guarantee The approved hatcheries will deposit a bank. guarantee for: Rs.5.00 lakhs (Rupees Five Lakhs) in favour of the Coastal Aquaculture Authority to ensure compliance of these Guidelines by them and in the event of any violation, the Bank Guarantee shall be invoked.
