Commissioners approved a resolution urging federal authorities to act swiftly against the looming threat of the New World screwworm fly. Precinct 4 Commissioner Mo Morrow reported that while no flies have been identified in Texas, the pest is within 650 miles and capable of traveling up to 12 miles a day. The resolution calls for expedited USDA and FDA approvals, emergency production of Ivermectin dry premix for livestock feed, and conversion of sterile fly facilities.
