Correction Issued on Effective Date for Delisted Facilities

Correction Issued on Effective Date for Delisted Facilities: Now June 14

Yesterday an announcement was posted stating that temporary restrictions imposed by Russia on U.S. establishments 244L and 244W would take effect June 15, meaning product from these facilities must be on a ship by that date. The announced date has been found to be in error, however, and is now posted as June 14. So any product bound for Russia from either of these facilities must be on a ship by June 14, rather than June 15.

An updated list of U.S. pork plants eligible to export to Russia can be found online.

Please contact Courtney Heller at 303-623-6328 or cheller@usmef.org if you have any questions.
