Do not pass this regulation, this will place undo hardship on the small farm operators and hobby farmers and backyard poultry enthusiasts in the state. This shold be reserved for BIG Agribusiness concerns who import and export large quantities of livestock and poultry and have a much higher risk of propogating a disease.

 Have the Vet's tell you when the last breakout of something dangerous to livestock or humans occured from a small operator and then have them give you the same facts for the BIG operators.

 Thank you for your attention in this matter.
