Commissioners for the Texas
Animal Health Commission
(TAHC), meeting in Austin in
December, gave TAHC personnel
broader authority to test cattle
herds suspected to be at high risk for
catching brucellosis from infected
herds nearby. Brucellosis is an
incurable contagious, bacterial
disease that can cause cows to abort,
deliver weak calves or produce less
milk.
Texas is part of a nationwide
brucellosis eradication program and
must reach strict stand.u ds set by
the U.S. Department of Agriculture
(USDA) for “cleaning up’’ the
disease by October 1990
TAHC commissioners expanded

animals must be slaughtered (the
meat is safe to eat), and the other
cattle in the herd must remain under

In response to recent statutory
changes by the Texas Legislature,
TAHC Commissioners also clarified
the definition of cattle “dealers” and
their requirements for record description of each
keeping. A “dealer” is a person who including sex, age, color, breed,
buys or sells cattle in commerce on brand, and individual identification,

* quarantined pastures for
brucellosis-exposed heifers remain
vacant for two months after the
pasture permit expiration date. The
pastures are specially designated
only for heifers that come from
brucellosis-infected herds and who
are too young to send to a
quarantined feedlot.
Permits for quarantined pastures
will continue to be issued for eight-
month periods. However, before the
permit expires, the owner/operator
may reapply, and a representative
of the TAHC or USDA will make an
inspection of the premise and the
“S”-branded-( Brucellosis-exposed)
heifers still in the pasture before a
renewal of the permit is granted.
Heifers that weigh more than 500
pounds or that have permanent teeth
will be required to be moved from
the quarantined pasture to a
quarantined feedlot prior to the
permit reapproval.
The TAHC Commissioners made
changes in state entry
I requirements, regarding
I tuberculosis testing for dairy and
• registered beef breeding cattle.
These cattle that are parturient or
postpartirient, or 18 months or older,
are to be tested negative for
tuberculosis within six months prior
to entering Texas, with test results
recorded on the certificate of
veterinary inspection. Dropped
from the regulations are provisions
allowing dairy and registered beef
breeding cattle to come to Texas on
an entry permit and be quarantined
and tested within five days after
arrival.
