The following shall apply with regard to permits for labeling:
(a) Each person who labels agricultural seed in accordance with KRS
250.041 shall obtain a labeling permit from the director and pay a
quarterly inspection fee unless labels attached to the seed containers
were issued by the Kentucky Seed Improvement Association, or
purchased from the director.
(b) Each person who labels vegetable seed, flower seed, or combination
mulch, seed, and fertilizer product shall obtain a labeling permit from the
director.
(c) Permit holders shall be assessed a yearly fee of twenty-five dollars ($25)
based on a calendar year or fraction thereof. The procedure for obtaining
a permit, the responsibilities of the permit holders, method to be used in
determining inspection fees, and the procedure for payment of inspection
fees by permit holders distributing agricultural seed shall be established
by administrative regulations promulgated by the director. Permits may be
revoked if the director determines that the permit holder is not complying
with the provisions of KRS 250.021 to 250.111.
(d) Labels for agricultural seed may be purchased from the director at a price
established by administrative regulation promulgated by the director.
Each person who distributes agricultural seed in containers of forty (40)
pounds or more at retail in Kentucky and each person, other than a certified
seed conditioner, who conditions agricultural seed for distribution in Kentucky
shall register with the director.
Certified seed growers and certified seed conditioners shall be registered with
the director by the Kentucky Seed Improvement Association at no additional
fee as a part of the certification process.
The yearly registration fee for retail agricultural seed dealers and for
noncertified custom seed conditioners shall be twenty-five dollars ($25). If a
person is required to both register and obtain a permit, the permit fee shall
apply, and if a person is required to register both as a retail agricultural seed
dealer and noncertified custom seed conditioner, only one (1) registration fee
shall be paid.
