21    test shall, immediately upon  such  reaction,  be  marked  by
22    branding  on  the  left hip jaw with a letter "T". The letter
23    shall be not less than two nor  more  than  three  inches  in
24    length, and the animal shall be tagged in the left ear with a
25    special tag to be furnished by the Department of Agriculture.
26    It  is  the  duty of the veterinarian applying the tuberculin
27    test to immediately notify the Department of  Agriculture  of
28    such   reactors,  and  to  brand  and  tag  such  animals  as
29    prescribed in this Act.
30        No person shall remove any such identification tag.
31        On receipt of such notice the Department  of  Agriculture
32    shall mail, or deliver to the owner of such reacting animal a
33    written  quarantine  notice  to prohibit the movement of such
HB1177 Engrossed            -11-              LRB9000173NTsbC
 1    animal from the  premises  where  found,  except  for  direct
 2    shipment to an approved stockyard or an approved slaughtering
 3    establishment,  and to further prohibit the movement from the
 4    premises of any other animals in the herd except  on  written
 5    permit  from the Department, until the quarantine is released
 6    by the Department. Depositing such notice in any post office,
 7    letter box, or other receptacle erected  and  maintained  for
 8    the receipt of mail is sufficient notice of such quarantine.
 9        The  Department  may  quarantine  cattle,  bison,  sheep,
10    goats,  antelope, or cervids suspected of being infected with
11    tuberculosis. Suspicion of tuberculosis infection in the herd
12    may be based upon, but is not specifically  limited  to,  the
13    presence of lesions grossly indicative of Mycobacterium bovis
14    and  confirmed  by  laboratory  examination,  revealed  in an
15    animal at time of slaughter  or  autopsy  with  a  subsequent
16    trace  made  to  the  herd  of  origin of the animal or, when
17    cattle, bison, sheep, goats, antelope, or cervids originating
18    from an infected  herd  have  been  sold  or  transferred  to
19    another  herd  or,  possible contact of cattle, bison, sheep,
20    goats, antelope,  or  cervids,  either  through  physical  or
21    mechanical means, with animals from an infected herd, or when
22    tracing  and  epidemiologic analysis indicate possible spread
23    from an infected herd. Such quarantine shall remain in effect
24    until official  tests  or  autopsies  fail  to  disclose  the
25    presence of tuberculosis.
26        The  owner  of  cattle, bison, sheep, goats, antelope, or
27    cervids under quarantine shall  comply  with  all  quarantine
28    measures  which are considered necessary by the Department of
29    Agriculture  and  bear  all  expense  connected   with   such
30    quarantine.
31        The  Department  of  Agriculture  may  allow the sale and
32    transfer  of  cattle  under  quarantine   subject   to   such
33    reasonable regulations as the Department may prescribe.

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

32    United  States  fails  or refuses to make an appropriation to
33    assist in the eradication of tuberculosis and in the  payment
HB1177 Engrossed            -13-              LRB9000173NTsbC
 1    for cattle, bison, or cervids destroyed under this Act, or if
 2    for  any  other reason or in any other way the cooperation of
 3    the United States  Government  is  withdrawn,  the  State  of
 4    Illinois  shall  pay  to  the  owner of any cattle, bison, or
 5    cervids tested for tuberculosis which react and are destroyed
 6    under this Act an additional indemnity of $200 for any  grade
 7    animal  or  $400 for any registered animal. When the complete
 8    herd depopulation procedure is followed and  funds  from  the
 9    United  States Government are not available or are withdrawn,
10    the State shall pay to the owner of cattle, bison, or cervids
11    destroyed the appraisal  value  of  such  cattle,  bison,  or
12    cervids,  less  any  salvage  value  received, but in no case
13    shall the State indemnity payment exceed $400 for  any  grade
14    animal or $800 for any registered animal. The Department may,
15    by  regulation, increase the indemnity payments to facilitate
16    the program for eradication of tuberculosis. If at  any  time
17    the   State   of   Illinois  fails  or  refuses  to  make  an
18    appropriation for the  eradication  of  tuberculosis  and  in
19    payment  for  cattle,  bison,  or cervids destroyed under the
20    provisions of this Act, or if at any time  the  appropriation
21    made  by  the General Assembly of this State for such purpose
22    shall become exhausted, the  testing  of  cattle,  bison,  or
23    cervids  as provided for in this Act shall be suspended until

29    Department  of  Agriculture   shall   establish   rules   for
30    determining  when  a herd of cattle, bison, goats, or cervids
31    shall be considered as tuberculosis-free. When any herd meets
32    such  requirements  the  owner  shall  be   entitled   to   a
