Page 14, after line 35, insert:

"Sec. 23. Laws 2001, chapter 206, section 14, is amended to read:

Sec. 14. [EXEMPT ACREAGE IN LAND EXCHANGE.]

The city of Bird Island Renville county may exchange a parcel of land owned by it or acquired for it by a qualified intermediary, for a parcel of agricultural real estate that is owned by an individual exempt under Minnesota Statutes, section 500.221, based on ownership being lawfully acquired prior to June 1, 1981. Since there is no exception for

exchanged property under Minnesota Statutes, section 500.221, the exchange of the city's parcel would result in the loss of exemption for the exchanged property. Accordingly, this act provides that the agricultural land being exchanged for the parcel that is currently exempt shall also be exempt under Minnesota Statutes, section 500.221, as if it had been purchased by the owner prior to June 1, 1981. Such exchanged parcel shall have exactly the same rights under the statute as the parcel to be exchanged and the deeds used to effectuate the transaction may so state.

Section 23 is effective the day following final enactment."

Huntley moved to amend the Ozment amendment to H. F. No. 3183, the first engrossment, as amended, as follows:

Page 1, after line 4, insert:

"Subdivision 1. [FINDINGS.] Antibiotic-resistant bacteria cost American individuals and society at least four to five billion dollars annually. The use and misuse of antibiotics in animals and humans has been shown to promote the spread of resistant bacteria. Bacteria that have become resistant are able to transfer their resistance genes to unrelated bacteria of other species, magnifying the resistance problem. The effectiveness of antibiotics used in treating both sick humans and sick animals is being compromised. Any delay in taking steps to reduce misuse of antibiotic use in the United States will only heighten the public health risk since continued use promotes further development of resistance."

A roll call was requested and properly seconded.
