Establishes the crime of unlawful tampering of the milk supply in the first degree
This bill creates a new class D felony offense for intentionally damaging or tampering with raw milk supply with the intent to cause substantial harm or contamination, without legal authority. It directly affects dairy producers and milk suppliers by making such acts criminal and granting them the right to seek compensation for impaired milk. The law requires offenders to pay the fair market value of the damaged milk and shields owners from liability under this section. It aims to protect raw milk supply integrity through criminal penalties and civil remedies, without altering existing dairy regulations.
