Sec. 73.5  Interstate shipment of undiseased cattle from quarantined area; when permitted.

    Cattle of any herd in any quarantined area, which herd is not 
diseased with scabies, may be shipped, transported, or otherwise moved 
interstate for any purpose upon inspection by an APHIS or State 
inspector within 10 days prior to the date of shipment and when 
accompanied by a certificate from such inspector showing the cattle to 
be free from such disease or exposure thereto. When it is determined by 
the Administrator that all cattle of all herds in any quarantined area 
have been inspected for scabies by an APHIS or State inspector, that all 
the infected or exposed herds have been identified, and that all the 
infected herds have been dipped twice, and all the exposed herds have 
been dipped in a permitted dip as prescribed in Sec. 73.10, under 
supervision of an APHIS or APHIS-approved inspector, cattle of herds in 
such area which are not diseased with or exposed to scabies may be moved 
interstate in accordance with this section, without further APHIS 
inspection or certification, directly to a slaughtering plant where 
Federal Meat Inspection is maintained: Provided further, that treatment 
with ivermectin may be used in lieu of dipping for a herd of cattle 
treated together if the herd is physically separated for 14 days 
following treatment from all cattle not a part of the herd treated 
together with ivermectin. Information may be obtained from an APHIS 
inspector whether a determination as required by this section is 
currently applicable to authorize such movement. Cattle moved interstate 
under this section shall not be diverted en route and must be 
accompanied by a waybill or similar document, or a statement signed by 
the owner or shipper of the cattle, stating: (a) That the cattle are not 
known to be infected with scabies or exposed thereto; (b) [Reserved]; 
(c) the purpose for which the cattle are to be moved; (d) the number of 
the cattle; (e) the point

from which the cattle are to be moved interstate; (f) that the cattle 
shall not be diverted en route; and (g) the name and address of the 
owner or shipper of the cattle.
