Minnesota HF4134 modifies rules for importing, stocking, and transferring fish eggs in aquaculture.

Minnesota HF4134 amends the state's aquaculture regulations to allow the transfer and stocking of fish eggs from certain disease-positive sources under specific conditions. Eggs with enteric redmouth, whirling disease, or furunculosis from sources testing positive for specific pathogens can be transferred between licensed facilities or stocked following approved treatment. Fish with bacterial kidney disease or viral hemorrhagic septicemia, or eggs from sources testing positive for Renibacterium salmoninarum, can be imported into areas where the disease pathogen is present.
