§ 62702.1. It is recognized by the Legislature that the provisions for equalization of usage

It is recognized by the Legislature that the provisions for equalization of usages among producers and entry of new producers contained in the Gonsalves Milk Pooling Act, as originally enacted, and the pooling plan adopted thereunder, tended to achieve the purposes of that act; however, the provisions for more rapid equalization and additional new entry would more rapidly and effectively achieve the purposes of this chapter. It is also recognized that some holders of pool quota and production base initially issued under the Gonsalves Milk Pooling Act have waited for several years for equalization, and that equalized producers have for a number of years not shared in any of the benefits of new quota created by new usage. It is further recognized that it is necessary to promote and to attempt to assure more rapid equalization of the holders of pool quota issued subsequent to the initial allocation of production bases and pool quota pursuant to this chapter, and to provide for a program for entry and for equalization of new producers. It is the purpose of the amendments to this chapter to provide a reasonable and equitable mechanism to permit more accelerated equalization, to equalize the holders of pool quota and production base initially issued under the Gonsalves Milk Pooling Act and who are not yet equalized, and to legislatively allocate in a fair and reasonable manner a share of new pool quota created by new usage to existing pool quota holders who are not equalized, to new producers, and to equalized pool quota holders who have not shared in the benefits of the growth of new usage since the original enactment of the Gonsalves Milk Pooling Act and the pooling plan thereunder.
