Or. Admin. Code § 603-011-1110 - Import Requirements - Grazing Permit for Oregon Cattle
(1) In order to
qualify for the issuance of a Grazing Permit, the following conditions shall be
met:
(a) The cattle shall be a part of an
established breeding herd in this state which had been assembled (other than
births in the herd) more than four months prior to the submission of an
application for a grazing permit; and
(b) The out-of-state location for the grazing
or feeding of the cattle shall be owned or leased by the owner of the cattle
herd, and shall be so situated as to prevent the herd from commingling with
other cattle in the area.
(2) An application for a 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
include:
(a) The name and address of the
applicant, and the Oregon location of the cattle herd;
(b) The number, gender, breed, approximate
average age, and brand identification (if any) of the cattle in the
herd;
(c) The specific location and
state to which the cattle herd is to be moved, the description of conditions
that are intended to prevent commingling of the herd with other cattle, the
intended length of time before the herd would be returned to this state; and
intended date of movement to the out-of-state location; and
(d) The declarations, upon which the
Department is to rely, stating when the cattle herd had been finally assembled,
and stating the reasons the intended movement of the cattle herd should be
considered a usual part of the applicant's ranching operations.
(3) A Grazing Permit shall expire
six months after its date of issuance. Prior to the expiration date, a Grazing
Permit may be revoked or suspended by the Department if it determines that:
(a) Any of the evidence or declarations in
the application for a Grazing Permit was false or misleading;
(b) Any of the circumstances or conditions
specified in section (2) of this rule was non-existent or falsely stated;
or
(c) After the cattle herd has
been moved to the authorized out-of-state location, the cattle have thereafter
been moved to a location other than authorized in the permit, or cattle have
been added to or inserted as replacement in the herd, or the cattle in the herd
have been allowed to commingle with other cattle.
(4) The Grazing Permit may be revoked or
suspended by personally serving, or mailing by certified mail to, the permittee
a written determination and order, which order shall be effective immediately.
If the grazing permit is revoked or suspended while the cattle herd is out of
state, the cattle shall not be allowed re-entry into this state unless the
person having custody of the cattle complies with all of the regular
requirements for the importation of cattle into this state.
