(b) The grazing permit must have been issued to the person requesting its recognition and apply to the cattle desired to be transported into this state; and

(c) A written agreement must be in effect between this Department and the comparable agency of the state issuing the grazing permit, wherein reciprocal recognition is given to the grazing permits of the respective states and their administrative requirements and conditions for the issuance of the permits.

(3) An application for recognition of an out-of-state grazing permit shall be on a form prescribed by the Department, shall be submitted to the Department at least 14 days prior to the intended movement of the cattle herd, and shall be accompanied by a certified or duplicate-original copy of the out-of-state grazing permit issued to the applicant.
