By introducing disease testing and certification programs, the NPIP helped the poultry industry to grow, including expansion on the national level of both small-scale and commercial operations. ... Since 1945, Kansas has participated in the NPIP. ... SB 89 would enable KDA to assess a participant fee for any entity or person who wants to voluntarily participate in the NPIP program. This participation fee would not exceed 100 per location. The KDA would also continue to work with outside certified individuals who may elect to become a certified tester for pullorum-typhoid for a fee not to exceed $50. Once certified, an individual would be capable of performing poultry disease diagnostic services pursuant to the poultry disease control act. SB 89 would allow the agency to assess a fee for certifying anyone wanting to become a certified tester."
