Bill Summary
AN ACT RELATING TO LIVESTOCK; AMENDING SECTIONS OF THE LIVESTOCK CODE TO PROVIDE FOR AN OPTION FOR PRODUCERS TO OPT OUT OF THE COUNCIL ASSESSMENT.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Livestock Code to provide an option for producers to opt out of the council assessment, which is a fee imposed on all cattle involved in a transfer of ownership in New Mexico. The bill outlines the process for producers to opt out of the assessment, including submitting a written application to the council, which will then notify the New Mexico Livestock Board to stop collecting the assessment for that brand. The opt-out period is for three years, and producers can revoke the opt-out at any time by requesting it through the council. The bill also maintains the existing provision for producers to request a refund of the assessment they have paid.
