23 No person shall remove any such identification tag.
24 On receipt of such notice the Department of Agriculture
25 shall mail, or deliver to the owner of such reacting animal a
26 written quarantine notice to prohibit the movement of such
27 animal from the premises where found, except for direct
28 shipment to an approved stockyard or an approved slaughtering
29 establishment, and to further prohibit the movement from the
30 premises of any other animals in the herd except on written

33 letter box, or other receptacle erected and maintained for
-13- LRB9000173NTsbC
1 the receipt of mail is sufficient notice of such quarantine.
2 The Department may quarantine cattle, bison, sheep,
3 goats, antelope, or cervids suspected of being infected with
4 tuberculosis. Suspicion of tuberculosis infection in the herd
5 may be based upon, but is not specifically limited to, the
6 presence of lesions grossly indicative of Mycobacterium bovis
7 and confirmed by laboratory examination, revealed in an
8 animal at time of slaughter or autopsy with a subsequent
9 trace made to the herd of origin of the animal or, when
10 cattle, bison, sheep, goats, antelope, or cervids originating
11 from an infected herd have been sold or transferred to
12 another herd or, possible contact of cattle, bison, sheep,
13 goats, antelope, or cervids, either through physical or
14 mechanical means, with animals from an infected herd, or when
15 tracing and epidemiologic analysis indicate possible spread
16 from an infected herd. Such quarantine shall remain in effect
17 until official tests or autopsies fail to disclose the
18 presence of tuberculosis.
19 The owner of cattle, bison, sheep, goats, antelope, or
20 cervids under quarantine shall comply with all quarantine
21 measures which are considered necessary by the Department of
22 Agriculture and bear all expense connected with such
23 quarantine.
24 The Department of Agriculture may allow the sale and
25 transfer of cattle under quarantine subject to such
26 reasonable regulations as the Department may prescribe.

28 (510 ILCS 35/6) (from Ch. 8, par. 92)
29 Sec. 6. Appraisal and payment for animals destroyed. If
30 any cattle, bison, or cervids tested for tuberculosis under
31 this Act react to the test and are destroyed, the State of
32 Illinois shall pay to the owner of such cattle, bison, or
33 cervids an indemnity of $200 for any grade animal or $400 for
-14- LRB9000173NTsbC
1 any registered animal. The Department may, by regulation,
2 increase the indemnity payments to facilitate the program for
3 eradication of tuberculosis. No payment shall be made unless
4 the owner has complied with all lawful quarantine
5 regulations.
6 Before payment of indemnity, the owner shall present to
7 the Department the registration certificates covering animals
8 registered with an approved registry association, otherwise
9 indemnity payment shall be made as grade. A reasonable length
10 of time shall be allowed for the registration of eligible
11 animals that are under 3 years of age.
12 When the complete herd depopulation procedure is
13 followed, the State shall pay to the owner of cattle, bison,
14 or cervids destroyed the appraisal value of such cattle,
15 bison, or cervids, less any salvage value received and less
16 any indemnity received from the Federal Government, but in no
17 case shall the State indemnity payment exceed $200 for a
18 grade animal or $400 for a registered animal, except as
19 provided in Section 7 of this Act. All cattle, bison, or
20 cervids in a herd, regardless of test status, may be
21 destroyed when Mycobacterium bovis is confirmed in the herd.

23 (510 ILCS 35/7) (from Ch. 8, par. 93)
24 Sec. 7. Failure of U.S. government to cooperate; payment
25 for animals destroyed. If at any time the Congress of the
26 United States fails or refuses to make an appropriation to
27 assist in the eradication of tuberculosis and in the payment
28 for cattle, bison, or cervids destroyed under this Act, or if
29 for any other reason or in any other way the cooperation of
30 the United States Government is withdrawn, the State of
31 Illinois shall pay to the owner of any cattle, bison, or
32 cervids tested for tuberculosis which react and are destroyed
33 under this Act an additional indemnity of $200 for any grade
-15- LRB9000173NTsbC
1 animal or $400 for any registered animal. When the complete
2 herd depopulation procedure is followed and funds from the
3 United States Government are not available or are withdrawn,
4 the State shall pay to the owner of cattle, bison, or cervids
5 destroyed the appraisal value of such cattle, bison, or
6 cervids, less any salvage value received, but in no case
7 shall the State indemnity payment exceed $400 for any grade
