华盛顿9月16日电（路透社）——美国农业部长布鲁克·罗林斯周三表示，因新螺旋锥蝇疫情关闭的新墨西哥州口岸，农业部准备下周重新开放该口岸以恢复牲畜贸易。
罗林斯在缅因州波特兰举行的全国州农业部门协会会议上发言时表示，她计划于周三晚间前往新墨西哥州。

“我们正准备下周重新开放新墨西哥州的这个口岸，”罗林斯说道。
由于担心螺旋锥蝇寄生虫的传播，美国农业部在数月的口岸关闭后，于8月底在亚利桑那州道格拉斯港启动分阶段重新开放计划，恢复了与墨西哥的跨境牲畜贸易。
据该机构透露，目前有两起活跃的螺旋锥蝇疫情，均发生在德克萨斯州，分别涉及一匹马和一只狗。
“过去20多天来，你们在道格拉斯港的行动证明，这种情况是可控且可行的，一旦我们认为存在新的威胁，我们会再次关闭口岸，”罗林斯说道。

WASHINGTON, Sept 16 (Reuters) – U.S. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins said on Wednesday that the Department of Agriculture is preparing to reopen a New Mexico port to livestock trade next week after it was closed because of New World screwworm.
Rollins said during remarks at the National Association of State Departments of Agriculture conference in Portland, Maine, that she plans to travel to New Mexico on Wednesday night.

“We’re getting ready to reopen that New Mexico port next week,” Rollins said.
The USDA in late August resumed cross-border livestock trade with Mexico under a phased port reopening that began in Douglas, Arizona, after months of closures due to concerns about the spread of the screwworm parasite.
According to the agency, there are currently two active screwworm infestations, both in Texas, one in a horse and one in a dog.
“What you all have proven for the last 20 plus days in Douglas is that this is manageable and doable, and the minute we believe there’s another threat, we shut it down again,” Rollins said.
