§ 4.1-57-16 — Inspection of potatoes - Rights to demand certificate of inspection

1. When potatoes are ready for sale or are on their way to market, the owner, conveyor,
prospective buyer, or any other interested party may demand and is entitled to
inspection of the potatoes and to an inspection certificate as provided by law.
2. Whenever potatoes are shipped to or received by a wholesale potato dealer for
handling, purchase, or sale in this state and the wholesale potato dealer finds the
potatoes to be spoiled, damaged, unmarketable, in unsatisfactory condition,
mislabeled, or misrepresented in any way, unless both parties waive inspection before
sale or other disposition, the wholesale potato dealer shall cause the potatoes to be
examined by an inspector assigned by the seed commissioner for that purpose. The
inspector shall execute and deliver a certificate to the wholesale potato dealer stating
the day, the time, and the place of inspection and the condition of the potatoes. The
wholesale potato dealer shall mail or deliver a copy of the certificate to the shipper of
the inspected potatoes.
