California Code, Food and Agricultural Code (Formerly Agricultural Code) - FAC § 21289

The fee for the inspection of cattle which originated in any county or geographical area where a full point-of-origin inspection is maintained pursuant to Article 4 (commencing with Section 21141) shall be established by the director, upon recommendation of the Livestock Identification Advisory Board, in an amount sufficient to cover the actual costs incurred by the bureau in performing the inspection. A fee shall not be charged for any suckling calves which are accompanying their mothers if they are not shipped for sale or slaughter and no change of ownership is involved. Cattle moving out of a full point-of-origin area to a destination inspection point are exempt from the destination inspection fee. However, these cattle are subject to further inspection.
