Sec. 50.20  Claims for payment.

    Claims for payment, other than for reimbursement of relocation 
expenses of the reverse osmosis dairy plant, must be presented on 
payment claim forms furnished by APHIS.\3\ On the claim form, the owner 
must certify that the animals or other property are, or are not, subject 
to any mortgage. If the owner states that there is a mortgage, the claim 
form must be signed by the owner and by each person holding a mortgage 
on the cattle or other property, who must agree that the person 
specified on the claim form may receive any payment due. The APHIS 
veterinarian in charge or the official designated by him or her will 
record on the claim form the amount of payment that appears to be due to 
the owner, and the owner will be furnished a copy of the APHIS payment 
claim form. The veterinarian in charge or official designated by him or 
her will then forward the APHIS payment claim form to the appropriate 
APHIS official for further action on the claim. The Department will not 
pay any costs arising from the holding of the cattle pending slaughter, 
or for trucking and other transportation costs, yardage, commission, 
slaughtering charges, or for any other costs related to having the 
cattle slaughtered. The owner of the reverse osmosis plant must submit 
copies of
