"New, emerging, or unusual animal diseases" means diseases in animals that have never or rarely been observed in Washington state (new or emerging); or appear in a new species; or show evidence of higher pathogenicity; or appear in a higher than expected number of animals clustered in time or space. Any of these diseases may or may not be of potential public health significance.
"Reportable disease list" means the list of diseases identified in Table 1 of WAC 16-70-020.

"WOAH notifiable disease list" means the diseases listed by the WOAH in the Terrestrial Animal Health Code (2022). The WOAH notifiable disease list may be found at https://www.woah.org/en/what-we-do/animal-health-and-welfare/animal-diseases/.
