Under current law, a court may order a defendant in a court action brought by or on behalf of DATCP to reimburse DATCP for specific costs that DATCP reasonably incurs to enforce laws under its jurisdiction. These costs are identified under current law as: the costs of expert witnesses who are not employees of DATCP; the costs of depositions, transcripts, or photocopying; and any investigation, study, analysis, engineering report, test, or project that the court finds necessary for the preparation of the action.
This bill eliminates the itemized list of costs and provides that DATCP may be reimbursed for reasonable, documented enforcement costs incurred by DATCP to prepare and prosecute the action.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:

2009 BILL
AN ACT ...; relating to: the budget.

agriculture
Under current law, DATCP charges a fee to persons seeking to be licensed by DATCP to operate an animal market or to operate as an animal dealer or animal trucker. The amount of the fees to be charged for these licenses are specified in the statutes, but DATCP is authorized to specify a different fee by rule. DATCP also charges a fee to persons registered to operate a fish farm or to keep farm-raised deer. The department is authorized to specify the amount of these registration fees by rule.
This bill eliminates the statutory license fees for animal markets, animal dealers, and animal truckers and instead requires DATCP to specify the amount of these license fees by rule. The bill also authorizes DATCP to charge a reinspection fee if DATCP conducts a reinspection of a fish farm, an animal market, an animal dealer operation, an animal trucker operation, or the premises at which farm-raised deer are kept because the department has found that the premises, facility, or operation violates state law or administrative rules.
Under current law, DATCP must inspect each fish farm when it is first registered with DATCP, and may inspect any fish farm at any other time. This bill eliminates the requirement that DATCP inspect each fish farm when it is first registered with DATCP.
