(1) The board of county commissioners of any
county, upon petition of at least fifty-one percent of the sheep growers of the county, shall
request the board to designate such county as a sheep inspection district. The board shall duly
authorize a brand inspector to inspect sheep moving from range to range, or any migratory
movement of sheep, through such counties.
(2) The authorized brand inspector shall inspect such transitory sheep for a brand or
earmarks, and the owner of sheep so inspected shall be given an inspection certificate stating the
time and place of inspection.
(3) Any sheep owner in a county designated as a sheep inspection district shall notify the
board, or its duly authorized inspector, seven days in advance of any movement of sheep from
one range to another. Such inspector shall then designate a corral, convenient to the route to be
taken by such band of sheep, where inspection shall be made.
