A. 1. Each warehouseman, upon weighing commodities, shall issue a scale ticket to the person from whom the commodities are received on a form approved by the State Board of Agriculture. No scale ticket shall be issued unless the Board has approved the form. The scale ticket shall contain, but not be limited to, preprinted consecutive numbers and lines for entering the weight, grade, kind, test, and moisture of the commodity, the name and address of the owner, and the signature or initials of the licensed weigher and grader. The grade and the factors used to establish the grade shall be documented on each scale ticket. 2. Each warehouseman is required to have a licensed weigher and grader at each location to supervise the weighing and grading of commodities received and sign the scale ticket. 3. The scale ticket shall be nonnegotiable, but may singly or with others be exchanged for a state or federal negotiable warehouse receipt. A scale ticket has protection under the surety provisions of the Public Warehouse and Commodity Indemnity Act equal to a warehouse receipt. 4. No warehouseman shall store a commodity except in a state- chartered or federally licensed and bonded warehouse. B. The warehouseman, in the absence of some lawful excuse, shall immediately deliver the commodities stored upon a demand made either by the holder of a receipt for the commodities or by the depositor if the demand is accompanied by: 1. An offer to satisfy the warehouseman's lien; 2. An offer to surrender the receipt, if negotiable, with endorsements as necessary for the negotiation of the receipts; and 3. A readiness and willingness to sign an acknowledgment that the commodities have been delivered if a signature is requested by the warehouseman.
