(a) The director or his designee shall sample, inspect,
make analyses of and test commercial fertilizers, soil
conditioners and soil amendments distributed within this state
at any time and place and to the extent he deems necessary to
determine whether they are in compliance with this act. The
director or his designee may enter upon any premises or carriers
during regular business hours to have access to commercial
fertilizers, soil amendments or soil conditioners subject to the
provisions of this act and to the records relating to their
distribution.
(b) The methods of sampling analysis shall be those
adopted by the Association of Official Analytical Chemists
(AOAC). In cases not covered by such methods, or in cases where
methods are available in which improved applicability has been
demonstrated, the department may adopt such appropriate methods
from other sources.
(c) The department in determining whether any commercial
fertilizer is deficient in plant food shall be guided solely by
the official sample obtained and analyzed as provided for in
subsection (b) of this section.
(d) Official samples establishing a penalty for nutrient
deficiency shall be retained for a minimum of ninety (90) days
from issuance of a deficiency report. A deficiency in an
official sample of mixed fertilizer resulting from nonuniformity
is not distinguishable from a deficiency due to actual plant
nutrient shortage and is properly subject to official action.
(e) For purposes of this act, the results of official
analysis shall be final, unless it is determined by the director
that a resample is warranted. Should a distributor or registrant
request a resample of a fertilizer based upon the director's
findings of a deficiency, all costs associated with the
resampling and analysis shall be borne by the distributor or
registrant. If results of the resampling establish the results
of first analysis were invalid, the department shall bear the
costs associated with the resampling.
