§ 4-18-341. Testing generally.

When not otherwise provided by law, the Director of the Arkansas Bureau of Standards shall have the power to inspect and test to ascertain if all weights and measures kept, offered, or exposed for sale are accurate and correct. Within each calendar year, or less frequently if in accordance with a schedule issued by him or her or as otherwise determined, the director shall inspect and test to ascertain if all weights and measures commercially used in determining the weight, measurement, or count of commodities or things sold, offered, or exposed for sale on the basis of weight, measure, or count or in computing the basic charge or payment for services rendered on the basis of weight, measure, or count are accurate and correct. However, with respect to single-service devices designed to be used commercially only one (1) time and then to be discarded and to devices uniformly mass produced as by means of a mold or die and not susceptible to individual adjustment, tests may be made on representative samples of the devices. The lots of which the samples are representative shall be held to be correct or incorrect upon the basis of the results of the inspections and tests on the samples.
