Illinois Statutes Chapter 510. Animals § 50/6. Notice of quarantine; appeal

§ 6. Whenever quarantine is established in accordance with the provisions of this Act, notice shall be given by delivery in person or by mailing by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the owner or occupant of any premises so quarantined. Such notice shall be written or printed, or partly written and partly printed, with an explanation of the contents thereof. Such quarantine shall be sufficiently proved in any court by the production of a true copy of such notice of quarantine together with an affidavit, sworn to by the officer or employee of the Department who delivered or mailed such notice, containing a statement that the original thereof was delivered or mailed in the manner herein prescribed.

Every quarantine so established shall remain in effect until removed by order of the Department. Any person aggrieved by any quarantine may appeal to the Department which shall thereupon sustain, modify or annul the quarantine as it may deem proper. Quarantines will be removed when epidemiological evidence indicates that the disease or contamination threat to humans or other animals no longer exists.
