B1.3. Obtain a declaration issued by the supplier that there have been no notifiable diseases (Livestock Disease Control Act 1994) or unexplained disease outbreaks at the source facility in the past 24 months (Appendix E); or
Obtain a certificate of stock health in accordance with Appendices F and G; or
Demonstrate that the receiver or the supplier participates in an ongoing stock health surveillance program that meets DPI requirements in accordance with Appendix D and there have been no unexplained disease outbreaks at the source facility in the past 24 months.
Pathway B2:

B4.1. Same requirements as Pathway B1.
Pathway B5:
Translocation of salmonid species or endemic fish that are not established in the potential receiving waters
B5.1. This translocation pathway is outside the scope of this protocol (a risk assessment will be required).
Pathway B6:
Translocation of endemic fish and salmonid species sourced from the wild
B6.1. This translocation pathway is outside the scope of this protocol (a risk assessment will be required).
Pathway B7:
Disposal of fish and remaining water following the translocation
B7.1. Disposal of water discharged during or following a translocation event must be undertaken in accordance with Appendix H; and
B7.2. Disposal of aquatic species during or following a translocation event must be undertaken in accordance with relevant legislation and Appendix H.
