Alaska Statutes.

Title 3. Agriculture and Animals

Chapter 45. Diseased Livestock

Section 60. Procedure For Quarantine, Destruction, and Reimbursement.

AS 03.45.060. Procedure For Quarantine, Destruction, and Reimbursement.

(a) After inspection and test, the inspector described in AS 03.45.050 shall determine whether the animal inspected is subject to quarantine, slaughter, or destruction.

(b) If the inspector determines that the animal is subject to quarantine, the inspector shall prescribe the conditions and the length of time the animal is subject to quarantine.

(c) If the inspector determines that the animal should be slaughtered or destroyed, the inspector may condemn and have the animal slaughtered or destroyed in the manner the inspector determines. Reimbursement may be allowed for the slaughter or destruction of dairy cattle only. In such case, the inspector and the owner shall appraise the dairy cattle at a fair valuation without regard to the disease. Where they cannot agree as to the value of the animal, the owner and inspector may select a disinterested third party to aid in the appraisement. Where they cannot agree on the selection of a third party, a peace officer in the judicial district where the inspection is made may designate a third disinterested party to act with the inspector and owner to determine the value of the animal. The amount realized from the sale of the carcass of the slaughtered animal shall be paid to the owner of the animal and the inspector shall certify to the commissioner of environmental conservation the name and address of the owner, the date the animal was condemned, the appraised value of the animal, together with the net sum realized from the salvage thereof, or which could have been realized.
