Department of Agriculture rule relating to registration forms and tags for registration, taxation, and control of dogs
SB 312 authorizes the West Virginia Department of Agriculture to implement a specific rule (61 CSR 01B) governing dog registration forms and tags, which includes requirements for dog registration, taxation, and control. This rule was previously modified to address objections from the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee and is now formally authorized for use. The bill does not change the rule's content but ensures its legal validity for enforcement.
