Universal Citation: MT Admin Rules 32.4.1304

Current through Register Vol. 6, March 22, 2024

(1) Additions to a cervid herd (interstate and intrastate) may alter the monitored herd status of the recipient herd as follows:

(a) If the added cervid is from a CWD monitored herd status equal to or greater than the recipient herd, the CWD monitored herd status of the recipient herd will remain the same.

(b) If the added cervid is from a herd with a CWD monitored herd status less than the recipient herd, the CWD monitored herd status of the recipient herd will be reduced to the status of the lowest status cervid added.

(c) A newly assembled herd, on premises where CWD has never been diagnosed, retains the CWD monitored herd status of the cervids purchased. If cervids are from different monitored status herds, the newly assembled herd has the CWD monitored herd status of the lowest status animal.
