Article 3. Prevention Of Pest Dissemination By Movement Of Appliances of California Food And Agricultural Code >> Division 4. >> Part 1. >> Chapter 8. >> Article 3.

To prevent the dissemination of pests through the agency of appliances, the director may from time to time publish a list of such pests which may be carried through such agencies and designate any treatment which in his opinion would prevent their dissemination.

Except as otherwise provided in Section 5744, it is unlawful for any person to ship or move any used appliances unless there is furnished to the commissioner of the county of destination such proof as he may require that the appliances either:
  (a) Have not been exposed to infestation or infection by any pests.
  (b) Have been treated immediately prior to shipment or movement in the manner which is designated by the director.

The commissioner of the county of destination shall refuse entry of the used appliances until the proof required in Section 5742 is furnished.

The used appliances may be moved to a place which is designated by the commissioner for treatment under his supervision.
