2-14-45. Whenever bees, hives, or other equipment are
ordered destroyed pursuant to Code Section 2-14-44, the
Commissioner shall appraise the property to be destroyed. If the
Commissioner and the owner are unable to agree on the value, the
Commissioner and the owner shall each appoint one disinterested
appraiser. These two appraisers shall appoint a third disinterested
appraiser. The three appraisers thus appointed shall appraise the
property. When the property is destroyed, the Commissioner shall
pay any Georgia resident beekeeper whose property is destroyed a
sum equal to 50 percent of the appraised value of the property
destroyed from any funds appropriated for that specific purpose,
provided that in no event shall the compensation paid to any such
owner exceed $25.00 per colony. For the purposes of this Code
section, the term 'property' shall include bees, hives, frames, and
other equipment.
