The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 13.643, subdivision 6, to classify farmed Cervidae premises location data as private. It removes the previous provision that exempted this data from being classified as private, thereby ensuring that the location of premises where farmed Cervidae are kept is protected. The amendment also changes the language regarding the classification of animal premises data from plural to singular, indicating that the data is now considered as a single entity rather than multiple types.
Additionally, the bill allows the Board of Animal Health to disclose data related to animal premises if it determines that such access would assist in law enforcement or protect public or animal health and safety. The effective date of this amendment is set for the day following its final enactment.
