SB 315 West Virginia Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Department of Agriculture rule relating to licensing of livestock dealers

SB 315 authorizes West Virginia's Department of Agriculture to implement a revised rule (61 CSR 11H) governing licensing requirements for livestock dealers. This procedural bill formally approves a rule that was previously modified after committee feedback and refilled in the State Register, without changing the rule's substance. It directly affects livestock dealers who must comply with the licensing standards outlined in the authorized rule.
