Abstract
In early summer 1985 the Norwegian Veterinary Authorities authorized

the import of about 250.000 Atlantic salmon smolts

from a fish farm at the west coast of Scotland to the Namdal

region north of Trondheim. Immediately after arrival the smolts

came down with furunculosis, a disease that until then did not

occur in Norway. No special measures were taken and the disease

soon spread to Norwegian smolts previously stocked in the same

farms. Also farms that had not imported smolts became infected.

24 farms were affected by the disease, whereas restrictions were

imposed on all together 30 farms. In November of the same year

the Veterinary Authorities ordered the infected farms to slaugther

out all their fish before June 1st, 1986.
