When will premises ID become mandatory for sale barns, slaughter houses, vet clinics?
IDOA believes Premises ID to be a valuable tool for the protection of animal health and certainly encourages everyone with livestock to register their premises. However, to require premises ID for these locations would take legislative action. Currently there has not been any movement in that direction. 29. Is one of the reasons IDOA is requiring fair exhibitors to register their premises because there were not enough who registered voluntarily? No. IDOA is requiring a premises ID for exhibition due the fact that exhibition is such a high risk movement. Animals are brought in from literally hundreds of locations, commingled with other animals as well as being exposed to large numbers of people and then are dispersed to hundreds of locations. If a major animal disease were to be introduced at one of the livestock shows, Premises ID would allow animal health officials to alert producers much faster and respond more effectively. There currently are approximately 11,000 premises in Illinoi
