TX HB4932

Requires all chronic wasting disease (CWD) diagnoses in deer to be confirmed through testing conducted by the National Veterinary Services Laboratories within their standard timeframe

Limits the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's authority to restrict deer movement at breeder facilities or release sites to areas within 10 feet of the enclosure housing a CWD-positive deer

Mandates that movement restrictions be lifted once facility owners certify they have avoided commingling exposed deer, followed USDA decontamination procedures, and depopulated the affected enclosure, unless free-ranging deer infections resulted from willful failure to comply

Establishes a pilot program to breed and release CWD-resistant white-tailed deer into the wild, including DNA analysis to establish genetic baselines and breeding for the SS allele at codon 96, with releases limited to February 1 through April 15 annually

Allows the department to sell program-bred resistant deer to licensed deer breeders for up to $500, with the pilot program expiring December 31, 2029
