Trump delays new rules for farmers, guitarfish

President Trump’s regulatory moratorium captures new rules for farmers and protections for guitarfish in Thursday’s edition of the Federal Register.

Here’s what is happening:

Farmers: The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) will delay new rules for farmers.

The USDA issued requirements for organic livestock and poultry on Jan. 19, the day before President Trump’s inauguration. The rules include handling requirements and address the living conditions of these animals. 

To comply with Trump’s regulatory moratorium, the rules will be delayed until May 19.

Guitarfish: The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is delaying new protections for guitarfish.

The NMFS listed the blackchin guitarfish and common guitarfish as threatened species on Jan. 19, but the protections will not go into effect until March 21 to comply with Trump’s regulatory moratorium.

Hunting: The Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) is proposing new hunting regulations.

The bird hunting regulations will establish rules for the dates, times and number of birds that can be shot during the upcoming season.

The public has 30 days to comment.
