Section 27-6 - Centers of Infected and Dangerous Zones
Any area in the State in which bees are found to be infected with any disease is declared to be the center of an infected and dangerous zone. Such zone shall extend for two miles in every direction from the center, and all bees and fixtures within this zone are declared to be exposed to the disease. The movement of bees into or within such zone and the removal therefrom of bees and fixtures, is prohibited except as authorized by the Commission or unless a current certificate (60 days), issued by the Commission, indicates they are apparently free from disease. Primitive box or other types of hives which do not allow the ready removal of all frames and combs for the purpose of inspection are prohibited within these zones.
