Quarantine establishment; revocation.
(1) If upon report of any officer, employee or deputy of the State Department
of Agriculture, the Director of Agriculture is of the opinion that any
locality, district, orchard or place is infested with fruit pests or infected
with disease injurious to trees, plants or fruits, and liable to spread to
other orchards or localities to their damage or injury so as to be a public
danger, the director shall, by an order entered in the records of the
department, declare such place to be under quarantine. The director shall give
notice thereof by posting a notice in writing in a conspicuous place upon the
premises, specifying with convenient certainty what place or premises are under
quarantine regulations and by delivering a copy of such notice to the owner or
person in charge of the premises, if the owner or person in charge may be found
thereon. Such place thereafter shall be subject to quarantine regulations of
the department.
(2) As soon as,
in the opinion of the director the danger from such quarantine locality has
ceased, the director may revoke the quarantine.
