BY AGRICULTURAL AFFAIRS COMMITTEE
1 AN ACT
2 RELATING TO INSPECTION AND SUPPRESSION OF DISEASES AMONG LIVESTOCK; AMENDING
3 CHAPTER 2, TITLE 25, IDAHO CODE, BY THE ADDITION OF A NEW SECTION 25-212A,
4 IDAHO CODE, TO PROVIDE FOR DEFICIENCY WARRANTS FOR DISEASE CONTROL.
5 Be It Enacted by the Legislature of the State of Idaho:
6 SECTION 1. That Chapter 2, Title 25, Idaho Code, be, and the same is
7 hereby amended by the addition thereto of a NEW SECTION, to be known and des-
8 ignated as Section 25-212A, Idaho Code, and to read as follows:
9 25-212A. DEFICIENCY WARRANTS FOR DISEASE CONTROL. Whenever the director
10 declares an emergency, as provided in section 25-212, Idaho Code, the director
11 shall cause the disease to be controlled and eradicated, using such funds as
12 have been appropriated or may hereafter be made available for such purposes;
13 provided, that whenever the cost of disease control and eradication exceeds
14 the funds appropriated or otherwise available for that purpose, the state
15 board of examiners may authorize the issuance of deficiency warrants against
16 the general fund for up to five million dollars ($5,000,000) in any one (1)
17 year for such disease control and eradication. The director, in executing the
18 provisions of this chapter insofar as it relates to disease control and eradi-
19 cation, shall have the authority to cooperate with federal, state, county and
20 municipal agencies and private citizens in disease control and eradication
21 efforts; provided, that the state funds shall only be used to pay the state's
22 share of the cost of the disease control and eradication efforts. Disease con-
23 trol and eradication costs may include costs for inspection, diagnosis of dis-
24 ease, indemnity paid to owners for infected, exposed or disease susceptible
25 animals purchased and destroyed by order of the director, costs associated
26 with burial or disposal of animal carcasses, and costs for cleaning and disin-
27 fecting of infected premises. Such moneys as the state shall thus become lia-
28 ble for shall be paid as a part of the expenses of the department of agricul-
29 ture out of appropriations which shall be made by the legislature for that
30 purpose. In all appropriations hereafter made for expenses of the department
31 of agriculture, account shall be taken of and provision made for this item of
32 expense.
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS 11789
The purpose of this proposed legislation is to authorize the Board
of Examiners to issue deficiency warrants against the General Fund
for up to five million dollars ($5,000,000). The Board of Examiners
may authorize the issuance of warrants only after the Director of
Agriculture has declared an emergency regarding the outbreak of
disease in Idaho’s livestock resources.
These monies may be used to cover the cost of inspection, diagnosis
of disease, indemnity paid to owners of infected, exposed, or
disease susceptible animals purchased and destroyed by order of
the director, cost associated with burial or disposal of animal
carcasses, and cost for cleaning and disinfecting of infected
premises.
FISCAL IMPACT
A fiscal impact may occur to the General Fund only when an
emergency is declared by the Director of Agriculture and the State
Board of Examiners authorize the issuance of deficiency warrants.
