      <abstract>This data is associated with the following layers: Chronic Wasting Disease Testing Sites - CDFW [ds3154] (https://apps.wildlife.ca.gov/bios6/?al=3154), Carcass Disposal Sites - CDFW [ds3156] (https://apps.wildlife.ca.gov/bios6/?al=3156), and Chronic Wasting Disease Surveys - CDFW [ds3157] (https://apps.wildlife.ca.gov/bios6/?al=3157). These layers include CWD Testing Sites, Participating Meat Processors and Taxidermists (MP and T), Carcass Disposal Sites, and comprehensive data on CWD surveillance spanning from 1999 to 2023. This compilation of layers provides a comprehensive view of CWD-related activities, facilitating informed decision-making and strategic planning for wildlife management and disease prevention efforts. To date, there has not yet been any cases of CWD detected in California and surveillance data will be updated regularly. For the latest information, please visit https://wildlife.ca.gov/CWD.</abstract>
      <purpose>Participating MP and T (Meat Processors and Taxidermists): These establishments are authorized to collect and submit CWD samples to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) for testing. Participating MP and T's operate during their regular business hours, providing hunters with accessible avenues to contribute to CWD surveillance while managing their game processing and taxidermy needs.</purpose>
