CDFA has the authority to issue violations to anyone not following regulations. If anyone is seen removing green tags placed by Brand or Livestock Inspectors on bulls without a negative trich test, the CDFA District Veterinarian In Charge (VIC) in that area should be notified. The VIC, in consultation with CDFA Headquarters veterinarians, may decide to issue a violation to the offender. Fines can be up to $500.00 per violation per day. Each bull that had a tag removed would be considered a violation.
