345 Ind. Admin. Code 3-4-3

Current through October 23, 2024
Section 345 IAC 3-4-3 - Official health certificate required for sale

Authority: IC 15-17-3-21

Affected: IC 15

Sec. 3.

(a) As long as Indiana maintains a validated brucellosis-free state status, Indiana swine in intrastate commerce are not required to be tested and found negative for brucellosis before:
(1) sale;
(2) offer for sale;
(3) lease;
(4) barter; or
(5) exchange.

Interstate swine must satisfy the swine brucellosis requirements of the state of destination. If Indiana loses the validated brucellosis-free state status, the requirements in subsection (b) apply.

(b) No person shall sell, offer for sale, lease, barter, or exchange any swine for breeding purposes in Indiana unless the transaction is accompanied by an official certificate of veterinary inspection that meets the requirements in 345 IAC 1-1.5 and that indicates the swine are individually identified under 345 IAC 1-2.6 and negative to brucellosis within the thirty (30) days preceding the date of sale, lease, barter, or exchange, except as follows:
(1) Swine originating directly from the owner's currently validated brucellosis-free herd.
(2) Swine under six (6) months of age.
(3) Swine consigned for immediate slaughter.
(4) Barrows.
(5) Swine exempted by the board.
