Section 24949.1.

(a) For purposes of this part, the sale or exchange of livestock (other than poultry) held by a taxpayer for draft, breeding, or dairy purposes in excess of the number the taxpayer would sell if he or she followed his or her usual business practices shall be treated as an involuntary conversion to which Sections 24943 to 24949, inclusive, apply if the livestock are sold or exchanged by the taxpayer solely on account of drought, flood, or other weather-related conditions.

(b) (1) In the case of drought, flood, or other weather-related conditions described in subdivision (a) that result in the area being designated as eligible for assistance by the federal government, subdivision (b) of Section 24944 shall be applied with respect to any converted property by substituting "four years" for "two years."

(2) The Franchise Tax Board may extend the period for replacement under Sections 24943 to 24949, inclusive (after the application of paragraph (1)), for the additional time as the Franchise Tax Board determines appropriate if the weather-related conditions that resulted in the application of paragraph (1) continue for more than three years.
