FY 2016 Appropriation

The aim of the Animal Health program is to maintain the disease free status and promote the marketability of Utah animals and to protect public health. This benefits the animals, the livestock industry, and the public. The program administers various state and federal cooperative disease control programs. It monitors animal imports to the state, reviews all Certificates of Veterinary Inspection, contracts with local veterinarians for inspections, and inspects aquaculture facilities, slaughter plants, brine shrimp plants, dog food plants, etc. A staff of veterinarians and professionally-trained inspectors carries out most of the work. Homeland security is a significant aspect of the program. The law further provides quarantine powers to the Commissioner to prevent the spread of contagious or infectious deceases.

This program was moved from the Administration line Item to the Animal Health line item by the 2013 Legislature.
