(2) No consignee shall accept a shipment of cattle unless they are accompanied by the shipping copy of the interstate certificate of veterinary inspection or owner shipper statement as required by this Part. The consignee shall retain the documents for at least five years and make them available for examination upon the request of any representative of the department or the U.S.D.A.
(c) Persons importing or moving cattle into the State shall transport them from the point of entry to the destination named in the interstate certificate of veterinary inspection or owner-shipper statement by the most direct practical route and shall not unload them at any other premises, unless otherwise directed by an authorized representative of the commissioner.
