Section 603-029-0365 - Disposition of Condemned Meat Animals(1) Except as otherwise provided in this part, meat animals identified as Oregon Condemned shall be killed by the state-inspected establishment, if not already dead. Such meat animals shall not be taken into the state-inspected establishment to be slaughtered or dressed; nor shall they be conveyed into any part of the establishment used for edible products; but they shall be disposed of in the manner provided for condemned carcasses OAR 603-029-0800 to 603-029-0850. The official Oregon Condemned tag shall not be removed from, but shall remain on the carcass until it is disposed of as prescribed in OAR 603-029-0800 to 603-029-0850, at which time such tag may be removed by a Department employee only. The number of such tag shall be reported to the supervisor by the inspector who affixed it, and also by the inspector who supervised the disposition of the carcass.(2) Any meat animal condemned on account of ketosis, swine erysipelas, vesicular diseases, grass tetany, transport tetany, parturient paresis, anasarca, anaplasmosis, leptospirosis, listeriosis, or inflammatory condition including pneumonia, enteritis, and peritonitis may be set apart and held for treatment under supervision of a Department employee or official designated by the State Veterinarian. The Oregon Condemned identification tag will be removed by a Department employee following treatment under such supervision if the meat animal is found to be free from any such disease.(3) Meat animals previously affected with listeriosis, including those released for slaughter after treatment under section (2) of this rule, shall be identified as Oregon Suspect.(4) When a meat animal under the provisions of this rule is to be released for a purpose other than slaughter, the operator of the state-inspected establishment or the owner of the meat animal shall first obtain permission for the movement of such meat animal from the State Veterinarian.Or.
