SECRETARY
The Secretary of the Maui Jim Horse Trials is Rick Dunkerton from Laurel, Mississippi, whom many of you know from his on-line entry service, EventEntries.com. We will be offering on line entry with or without credit cards as an option. Rick’s email address is rdunkerton@evententries.com

Entry permits are available by calling the Illinois Department of Agriculture, 217/782-4944 and are issued 24 hours a day, seven days a week. THERE IS NO CHARGE FOR OBTAINING AN ENTRY PERMIT FROM THE ILLINOIS DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE.

The following information will be required for the entry permit:

1. Name and mailing address of owner of the animal
2. Date of the EIA test
3. Location where the animal is going
4. Permit numbers are also available online at www.agr.state.il.us

For equine only: The entry permit is good for 30 days (the life of the health certificate). It is requested that if the health certificate is used for multiple entries (i.e. trail rides or shows on several weekends) that all events during the 30 day period be included on the health certificate. If an event is not listed on the health certificate, the owner is asked to call the Department, provide the permit number and provide the location of the additional event(s).

For equine sales: A blanket permit is available for out-of-state equine sales and auctions. For more information, please call the Bureau of Animal Health, 217/782-4944.

In accordance with the Illinois Diseased Animals Act (510 ILCS 50/1 and the regulations pertaining thereto 8 Ill. Adm. Code 85), violators are guilty of a business offense and shall be fined not less than $50 nor more than $1,000.

This registration is in addition to acquiring a passport or horse recording. All horses and riders must be registered with the FEI before competing in any 2006 competitions. The FEI horse and rider registration form is available on the USEF web site, www.usef.org. On the homepage, go to the menu on the left and select either "Competitions" or "High Performance." The downloadable form is highlighted in red in those areas.

FEI New Passport Application

FEI National Passport Application

1. All horses intending participate in FEI competition must have at least received an initial primary course of two vaccinations, given between 21 and 92 days apart. Thereafter, a third dose (referred to as the first booster) must be given within 6 months + 21 days after the date of administration of the second primary dose, with at least annual boosters given subsequently (i.e. within 365 days of the last dose).
2. All horses intending participate in FEI competition must have at least received an initial primary course of two vaccinations, given between 21 and 92 days apart. Thereafter, a third dose (referred to as the first booster) must be given within 6 months + 21 days after the date of administration of the second primary dose, with at least annual boosters given subsequently (i.e. within 365 days of the last dose).
3. No vaccination shall be given within 7 days of the day of arrival at the FEI event.
4. All horses that were certified as correctly vaccinated under the previous FEI equine influenza vaccination rule prior to 1st January 2005, do not need to start a primary course again provided that they have complied with the previous rule of primary course and annual re-vaccinations and the new rule of a booster vaccination within 6 calendar months + 21 days of the day of arrival at the FEI event.

• All proprietary equine influenza vaccines are acceptable to the FEI irrespective of the route of administration.
• All vaccines must be administered by a Veterinarian.
• The vaccination should be administered according to the manufacturer’s instructions (i.e. intramuscular injection or intranasal).
• The details of the vaccine, serial/batch number, the date and route of administration must be recorded in the FEI passport.
• Where vaccination details are to be entered into new FEI passports/recognition cards or duplicates, if the vaccination history of the horse is very long, the Veterinarian who completes the descriptive page of the passport/recognition card may use a specific statement to certify that the vaccinations have been administered in accordance with FEI regulations (for the extract of the wording see Veterinary Regulations, Annex XIV.I.11).

• Less than one week after the 3-week vaccination window: CHF 200
• Less than two weeks after the 3-week vaccination window: CHF 300
• Less than four weeks after the 3-week vaccination window: CHF 400
• More than four weeks after the 3-week vaccination window: CHF 500, and cancellation of the horse’s participation in the event

Provided the current passport contains a statement that the vaccination history of the horse has been checked and found to be correct (for exact wording see VR, Annex XIV.I.11), the lack of information available on the primary vaccination course need not lead to a penalty, and a repeat primary course is not required.
For horses starting vaccinations after 1st January 2005, when the first booster has not been given (6 months +/- 21 days after the second injection of the primary course), the horse should receive a new primary course followed by a booster vaccination 6 months (+/- 21 days) later. A warning should be written down in the passport. The horse may compete providing that it complies with the rules in every other way.

Any infringements of vaccination dates should be noted on the vaccination page in the passport so that it is not reported again at a future event. Please write in CAPITAL letters; remember that others will be dependent on the information that you have written in the passport. If possible, add a copy of the vaccination page with the infringement to your Vet Report to the FEI.
