operator, agency, and claimants may submit to the board evidence
related to outstanding charges against stored grain. If the evidence is
submitted, the agency shall determine the storage loss payable by the
board. However, the outstanding charges may not include uncollected
storage charges.
(b) Before a storage loss may be paid, the producer must provide to
the board evidence that storage fees were paid to the facility for the
time during which the grain was stored. The board shall use the
following minimum storage fees to determine the storage loss:
(1) Barley and barley seed: Five cents ($0.05) per month, per
bushel.
(2) Canola and canola seed: Five cents ($0.05) per month, per
bushel.
(3) Corn and corn seed: Five cents ($0.05) per month, per bushel.
(4) Lentils and lentil seed: Five cents ($0.05) per month, per
bushel.
(5) Oats and oat seed: Five cents ($0.05) per month, per bushel.

(c) A claimant who has incurred a financial loss due to the
revocation of a license of a grain buyer is entitled to be compensated
by the board from the fund for eighty percent (80%) of the loss incurred
less all credits and offsets and any producer premium that should have
been due on the sale of the grain. The board shall determine the loss
incurred in the following manner:
(1) For grain that has been priced, the loss shall be the value of
the priced grain less any outstanding charges against the grain.
(2) For grain sold to a grain buyer, where the title to the grain has
passed to the grain buyer, who is also a warehouse operator and
that has not been priced, the loss shall be established using the
price determined for the storage obligations.
(3) For grain sold to a grain buyer who is not a warehouse
operator and that has not been priced, the loss shall be established
using a price determined by the agency using the same procedures
used by the agency to determine the price at the warehouse.
(d) If a producer appeals under IC 4-21.5-3 an order issued by the
director under IC 26-3-7-16.5 that postpones the agency from notifying
the board of the amount of loss for proven claimants under IC 26-3-7-16.5(m), the board may issue partial payments to any claimants
who have not appealed their claims.
