1 37 b. The department shall provide that real or
1 38 personal property that is exposed to the poultry shall

1 40 the pathogenic virus. As part of the sanitation, the
1 41 department shall provide for the disposal of poultry
1 42 carcasses, eggs, or manure. Upon inspection, the
1 43 department shall certify that the sanitization has
1 44 been performed as required by this paragraph.
1 45 c. The department may utilize the procedures

1 50 d. The department shall be reimbursed by the owner
2 1 of the poultry or property for costs required to carry
2 2 out this subsection. However, if the enforcement
2 3 action is brought due to the activity of a law
2 4 enforcement officer of a political subdivision, the
2 5 political subdivision shall be reimbursed by the owner
2 6 of the poultry or property for those costs. The
2 7 department or political subdivision shall certify the
2 8 amount to the county auditor of any county in which
2 9 the owner is a titleholder of real property. The
2 10 amount shall be placed upon the tax books which shall
2 11 be a lien upon the real property, and collected with
2 12 interest and penalties after due, in the same manner
2 13 as other unpaid property taxes."
