The proposed bill establishes the State Action Poultry Flock Depopulation Grant Program within the Department of Finance and Administration, which will be administered by the Secretary of the Department. This program aims to provide financial assistance to eligible poultry growers whose flocks have been depopulated by the state, including those affected prior to the bill's effective date. The Secretary is tasked with awarding grants and developing rules for the program, which will outline the documentation required to demonstrate losses and the process for distributing grant funds.

Additionally, the bill mandates that the Department of Finance and Administration adopt initial rules for the program and file them with the Secretary of State by January 1, 2026, or as soon as practicable after necessary approvals. The proposed rules must also be submitted to the Legislative Council in advance to allow for their consideration before the deadline. This structured approach aims to ensure that the program is effectively implemented and that eligible poultry growers receive the support they need in a timely manner.
