1. It is unlawful for the owner of any
legally recorded brand, recorded under the provisions of this chapter, to use
the brand on any position, on any animal, or in any area, other than that
authorized in writing at the time the brand was recorded, or subsequent
thereto, by the Department. The Department may, on the written application of
the owner of any legally recorded brand, authorize in writing a change of
position or a new position for the application of the brand, or change or
enlarge the area in which it may be used, if, in the opinion of the Department,
the change in position or area of use will not jeopardize or injure the rights
or property of the owner of any other brand remaining of legal record.
2. Any application for a change in position
or a new position or a change in the area of use as provided in subsection 1
must set forth a sufficient reason for the change, and the Department may
require such supporting evidence for the change as it deems necessary to
establish the facts.
3. It is unlawful for any person to
obliterate, disfigure, extend, deface or remove from any animal a brand that is
recorded pursuant to the provisions of this chapter.
