SB 89 Kansas Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Authorizing the animal health commissioner to adopt rules and regulations to administer the poultry disease control act and to establish an annual participation fee for participation in the national poultry improvement plan, a certification fee for persons performing testing and diagnostic services and a testing fee per visit to each location participating in the plan.

SB 89 authorizes Kansas' animal health commissioner to establish fees for the National Poultry Improvement Plan (NPIP), including an annual participation fee (up to $50) for producers, a certification fee (up to $50) for testing professionals, and a per-visit testing fee (up to $100). The bill requires all poultry shipped into Kansas to meet NPIP standards or equivalent disease control requirements and allows the commissioner to suspend participation for non-payment of the annual fee within a 60-day grace period. This affects Kansas poultry producers, hatcheries, exhibition flocks, and testing service providers who must comply with these fee structures and disease control protocols.
