Sec. 9.
Certificate of tuberculosis-free herd.
The Department of
Agriculture shall establish rules for determining
when a herd of cattle, bison, goats, or cervids shall be considered as
tuberculosis-free. When any
herd meets such requirements the owner shall be entitled to a certificate
from the Department of Agriculture showing that the herd is a
tuberculosis-free accredited herd. Such certificate shall be revoked
whenever the herd no longer meets the necessary requirements for an
accredited herd, but the herd may be reinstated as an accredited herd upon
subsequent compliance with such requirements. "Herd" as herein used shall
include one or any number of cattle, bison, goats, or cervids.
