(a) The owner of any property destroyed pursuant to section 22-324 may submit a claim to the Commissioner of Agriculture for compensation for such property. The commissioner may approve payment of the claim after the value of the property destroyed has been determined by the commissioner and the owner thereof. No compensation shall be paid and no premises restocked with poultry until such premises have been inspected and approved by the commissioner. No owner shall be compensated by the state if such owner is compensated at full market value from any other source for property destroyed pursuant to section 22-324.
(b) The Commissioner of Agriculture shall adopt regulations in accordance with chapter 54 establishing procedures for determining the value of property destroyed pursuant to section 22-324. Such procedures shall include provisions for arbitration and appraisal by two appraisers, one chosen by the commissioner and one chosen by the owner.
(c) Any funds appropriated to the Department of Agriculture for the payment of compensation pursuant to this section shall not be expended for any other purpose.
