The land at Runnymede was taped off after the FMD outbreak in the Summer. The pastures on farms where FMD is confirmed can be restricted for up to 12 months after confirmation of disease.

However, if the farmers choose to undergo a process called sentinel restocking, restrictions can be lifted sooner.... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (thamesweb) http://theroyalwindsorforum.yuku.com/sreply/1616 Mon, 02 Jun 2008 15:06:16 GMT http://theroyalwindsorforum.yuku.com/reply/1614/t/Foot-and-Mouth-Disease.html#reply-1614 feeds@yuku.com (cranbourne) http://theroyalwindsorforum.yuku.com/sreply/1614 Mon, 02 Jun 2008 12:38:25 GMT http://theroyalwindsorforum.yuku.com/reply/1554/t/Foot-and-Mouth-Disease.html#reply-1554
Apparently not so. While at Runnymede the other day I noticed that there were cattle in the fields once more, yet the warning signs and tape remained across the gates.

Odd, I thought. ]]> feeds@yuku.com (thamesweb) http://theroyalwindsorforum.yuku.com/sreply/1554 Thu, 22 May 2008 10:19:13 GMT http://theroyalwindsorforum.yuku.com/reply/1175/t/Foot-and-Mouth-Disease.html#reply-1175

Once the restrictions are lifted, the local authorities are responsible for the removal of all signage and debris. Please contact them on this matter:

Thank you for your email about Foot and Mouth Disease restrictions in some farms in Surrey.

According to information from Animal Health and Surrey Country Council, there are about 30 parcels of land under restrictions following the Foot and Mouth Disease outbreak. The reason for these remaining restrictions is that it is not possible to cleanse and disinfect grazing... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (thamesweb) http://theroyalwindsorforum.yuku.com/sreply/1172 Fri, 14 Mar 2008 15:06:04 GMT http://theroyalwindsorforum.yuku.com/reply/1171/t/Foot-and-Mouth-Disease.html#reply-1171 feeds@yuku.com (cranbourne) http://theroyalwindsorforum.yuku.com/sreply/1171 Fri, 14 Mar 2008 05:07:58 GMT http://theroyalwindsorforum.yuku.com/reply/1170/t/Foot-and-Mouth-Disease.html#reply-1170
What is more to the point is that most visitors to the countryside will now almost certainly ignore the restrictions - they certainly did when the infection was at its peak - thinking that the matter is now history.

The main regulations it seems to me are the need to keep out of areas closed off by the red and white tape and closure notices, as well as the restrictions on animals and animal products such as milk.

Royal Borough councillors and trading standards officers have been working throughout the weekend to ensure farmers and the general public are kept up to date with information about the foot and mouth disease outbreak across the border in Surrey.

Local footpaths that fall inside the 3K protection zone have been signposted and closed and are now being patrolled regularly by police and trading standards officers to ensure people steer clear.
