regulations to assure humane care,
treatment and transportation of animals. Copies of this

inspections of all campus facilities which house animals and
make recommendations, as appropriate.

Animals, 1996 . Copies are available from the Office
of Research and Sponsored Programs (ORSP).
ORSP must make acceptable assurances to NIH before any Public
Health Service project awards will be made.
