The bill amends and reenacts section 4.1-72-05 and subdivision f of subsection 2 of section 36-01-36 of the North Dakota Century Code, focusing on the administration of the animal premises identification program. It designates the North Dakota stockmen's association as the state administrator and allocator for the federally sponsored animal premises identification program specifically related to cattle, horses, and mules. The language changes include replacing "the" with "a" in the designation of the stockmen's association, clarifying its role.

Additionally, the bill modifies the language in subdivision f of subsection 2 of section 36-01-36, changing "pursuant" to "under" in the context of providing information to the North Dakota stockmen's association as required by section 4.1-72-05. These amendments aim to streamline the administration of the animal premises identification program and ensure clarity in the legal language governing the program's operations.
