Official statutory text

Oklahoma Statutes - Title 2. Agriculture Page 347

A. Upon an emergency declaration by the Governor pursuant to

the Animal Disease Outbreak Temporary Emergency Act, the State

Veterinarian may establish quarantine zones of control in any area

where a specific animal determined to be infected or is likely to be

infected with the disease be examined by a veterinarian authorized

by the Board or the State Veterinarian. This determination shall be

based on an actual veterinary examination or laboratory testing.

B. Quarantine zones of control shall be the smallest size

practicable to prevent the spread of the disease and must exist for

the shortest duration consistent with effective disease control. A

quarantine zone of control shall not extend beyond a radius of three

(3) miles from an animal determined to be infected or is likely to

be infected with the disease, unless the Board orders that control

of a specific disease requires a larger quarantine zone of control

based upon epidemiological evidence.
