Tuberculosis Accreditation Program

Kentucky became a Tuberculosis Free state in November 1987.  We continue to manage this voluntary program for those herd owners that wish to maintain a "tuberculosis accredited herd status".

This program is managed by our office, but the qualifying methods are mandated by USDA (listed in the UM&R, latest update 1/1/05).  The certification program is only available for cattle, bison or cervid herds.

For further information, please contact program staff.
