(1) The per-head inspection fee for a certified
feedlot shall be fifteen cents less than the fee set by the board pursuant to section
35-41-104 for direct-to-slaughter cattle and seventeen cents less than such fee for
all other cattle. All such fees shall be due and payable to the board by the fifth day

days late shall result in the assessment of a penalty of ten percent of the amount
originally due, not to exceed fifty dollars per late payment, plus interest at the legal
rate specified in section 5-12-102 (1)(b), C.R.S., until paid.
