(a) Except as provided in subsection (b), a
distributor who is liable for the payment of the tonnage inspection fee
under section 30 of this chapter shall file quarterly tonnage reports
setting forth the number of net tons of commercial feeds distributed in
Indiana during the preceding calendar quarter. The distributor shall file
the reports not later than January 31, April 30, July 31, and October 31
of each year. Upon filing a report, the distributor shall pay the
inspection fee at the rate stated in section 30 of this chapter. Inspection
fees that are due and owing and have not been remitted to the state
chemist within fifteen (15) days after the due date shall be increased by
a penalty fee of ten percent (10%) of the amount due or fifty dollars
($50), whichever is greater. The assessment of this penalty fee does not
prevent the state chemist from taking other actions under this chapter.
(b) A resident of Indiana who only manufactures and distributes
customer formula feeds and has met the requirements of section 30 of
this chapter is exempt from filing quarterly feed tonnage reports.
(c) A distributor who is subject to the inspection fees for small
packaged pet and specialty pet foods distributed in containers of ten
(10) pounds or less under section 30 of this chapter shall do the
following:
(1) Before beginning distribution, file with the state chemist a
listing of small packaged pet and specialty pet foods to be
distributed in Indiana in containers of ten (10) pounds or less, on
forms provided by the state chemist. The listing under this
subdivision shall be renewed annually before January 1 of each
year and is the basis for the payment of the annual inspection fee
of fifty dollars ($50) per product. New products added during the
year must be submitted to the state chemist as a supplement to the
annual listing before distribution.
(2) If the annual renewal of the listing is not received before
January 16 or if an unlisted product is distributed, pay a late filing
fee of ten dollars ($10) per product in addition to the normal
charge for the listing. The late filing fee under this subdivision is
in addition to any other penalty under this chapter.
