S.D. Admin. R. 12:68:24:09
The herd owner, the owner's veterinarian if requested, and the state veterinarian shall develop a plan for eradicating brucellosis in each affected herd. The plan must be designed to reduce and then eliminate brucellosis within the herd, to prevent spread of the disease to other herds, and to prevent reintroduction of brucellosis after the herd is free of the disease. The herd plan must be developed and signed within 30 days after the determination that the herd is affected.
The herd plan must address herd management, testing, and isolation of females during calving as well as cleaning and disinfection of the premises. The plan must be formalized as a memorandum of agreement between the owner and program officials and must be approved by the designated brucellosis epidemiologist.
