    (510 ILCS 35/5) (from Ch. 8, par. 91)
    Sec.  5.   Branding  infected  animals;  quarantine.  All

shall be not less than two nor  more  than  three  inches  in
length, and the animal shall be tagged in the left ear with a
special tag to be furnished by the Department of Agriculture.
It  is  the  duty of the veterinarian applying the tuberculin
test to immediately notify the Department of  Agriculture  of
such   reactors,  and  to  brand  and  tag  such  animals  as
prescribed in this Act.
    No person shall remove any such identification tag.
    On receipt of such notice the Department  of  Agriculture
shall mail, or deliver to the owner of such reacting animal a
written  quarantine  notice  to prohibit the movement of such
animal from the  premises  where  found,  except  for  direct
shipment to an approved stockyard or an approved slaughtering
establishment,  and to further prohibit the movement from the
premises of any other animals in the herd except  on  written
permit  from the Department, until the quarantine is released
by the Department. Depositing such notice in any post office,
letter box, or other receptacle erected  and  maintained  for
the receipt of mail is sufficient notice of such quarantine.
    The  Department  may  quarantine  cattle,  bison,  sheep,
goats,  antelope, or cervids suspected of being infected with
tuberculosis. Suspicion of tuberculosis infection in the herd
may be based upon, but is not specifically  limited  to,  the
presence of lesions grossly indicative of Mycobacterium bovis
and  confirmed  by  laboratory  examination,  revealed  in an
animal at time of slaughter  or  autopsy  with  a  subsequent
trace  made  to  the  herd  of  origin of the animal or, when
cattle, bison, sheep, goats, antelope, or cervids originating
from an infected  herd  have  been  sold  or  transferred  to
another  herd  or,  possible contact of cattle, bison, sheep,
goats, antelope,  or  cervids,  either  through  physical  or
mechanical means, with animals from an infected herd, or when
tracing  and  epidemiologic analysis indicate possible spread
from an infected herd. Such quarantine shall remain in effect
until official  tests  or  autopsies  fail  to  disclose  the
presence of tuberculosis.
    The  owner  of  cattle, bison, sheep, goats, antelope, or
cervids under quarantine shall  comply  with  all  quarantine
measures  which are considered necessary by the Department of
Agriculture  and  bear  all  expense  connected   with   such
quarantine.
    The  Department  of  Agriculture  may  allow the sale and
transfer  of  cattle  under  quarantine   subject   to   such
reasonable regulations as the Department may prescribe.
(Source: P.A. 83-760.)
    (510 ILCS 35/6) (from Ch. 8, par. 92)
    Sec.  6.  Appraisal and payment for animals destroyed. If
any cattle, bison, or cervids tested for  tuberculosis  under
this  Act  react  to the test and are destroyed, the State of
Illinois shall pay to the owner of  such  cattle,  bison,  or
cervids an indemnity of $200 for any grade animal or $400 for
any  registered  animal.  The  Department may, by regulation,
increase the indemnity payments to facilitate the program for
eradication of tuberculosis. No payment shall be made  unless
the   owner   has   complied   with   all  lawful  quarantine
regulations.
    Before payment of indemnity, the owner shall  present  to
the Department the registration certificates covering animals
registered  with  an approved registry association, otherwise
indemnity payment shall be made as grade. A reasonable length
of time shall be allowed for  the  registration  of  eligible
animals that are under 3 years of age.
    When   the   complete   herd  depopulation  procedure  is
followed, the State shall pay to the owner of cattle,  bison,
or  cervids  destroyed  the  appraisal  value of such cattle,
bison, or cervids, less any salvage value received  and  less
any indemnity received from the Federal Government, but in no
case  shall  the  State  indemnity  payment exceed $200 for a
grade animal or $400  for  a  registered  animal,  except  as
provided  in  Section  7  of  this Act. All cattle, bison, or
cervids  in  a  herd,  regardless  of  test  status,  may  be
destroyed when Mycobacterium bovis is confirmed in the herd.
(Source: P.A. 83-760.)

    (510 ILCS 35/7) (from Ch. 8, par. 93)
    Sec. 7.  Failure of U.S. government to cooperate; payment
for animals destroyed. If at any time  the  Congress  of  the
United  States  fails  or refuses to make an appropriation to
assist in the eradication of tuberculosis and in the  payment
for cattle, bison, or cervids destroyed under this Act, or if
for  any  other reason or in any other way the cooperation of
the United States  Government  is  withdrawn,  the  State  of
Illinois  shall  pay  to  the  owner of any cattle, bison, or
cervids tested for tuberculosis which react and are destroyed
under this Act an additional indemnity of $200 for any  grade
animal  or  $400 for any registered animal. When the complete
herd depopulation procedure is followed and  funds  from  the
United  States Government are not available or are withdrawn,
the State shall pay to the owner of cattle, bison, or cervids
destroyed the appraisal  value  of  such  cattle,  bison,  or
cervids,  less  any  salvage  value  received, but in no case
shall the State indemnity payment exceed $400 for  any  grade
animal or $800 for any registered animal. The Department may,
by  regulation, increase the indemnity payments to facilitate
the program for eradication of tuberculosis. If at  any  time
the   State   of   Illinois  fails  or  refuses  to  make  an
appropriation for the  eradication  of  tuberculosis  and  in
payment  for  cattle,  bison,  or cervids destroyed under the
provisions of this Act, or if at any time  the  appropriation
made  by  the General Assembly of this State for such purpose
shall become exhausted, the  testing  of  cattle,  bison,  or
cervids  as provided for in this Act shall be suspended until
such time as money shall be available for payment of  cattle,
bison, or cervids destroyed under this Act.

    (510 ILCS 35/9) (from Ch. 8, par. 95)
    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.

rules for  its  distribution  and  use.  Only  an  accredited
veterinarian  or a veterinarian employed by the United States
Department of Agriculture or any successor agency shall apply
a tuberculin test to cattle, bison, sheep,  goats,  antelope,
or cervids in this State.
