§ 10305 Brucellosis Control Areas

This law explains what a “brucellosis control area” is – a region the state sets up to meet USDA rules for getting rid of cattle disease called brucellosis.

Key Takeaways

•A control area is a specific region named by the department.
•It must meet the USDA’s certification standards for eradicating bovine brucellosis.
•The designation helps keep the disease from spreading to other cattle.

Example

A county where several cows test positive for brucellosis is declared a control area by the state animal health department.

Because the county is now a “brucellosis control area,” farmers there must follow special testing and movement rules to stop the disease, just like the law requires.

“Brucellosis control area,” means any area that has been so established by the department in order to qualify and maintain such area in accordance with certification standards of the bovine brucellosis eradication uniform methods and rules adopted by the United States Department of Agriculture. (Enacted by Stats. 1967, Ch. 15.)
