§ 15-16-2-39. Official commercial fertilizer analysis; report
Sec. 39. If an official commercial fertilizer analysis conducted by the state chemist under section 38 of this chapter results in a determination that the registrant of a commercial fertilizer is subject to a penalty or other legal action under this chapter, the state chemist shall forward a report of the results of the analysis to the registrant at least thirty (30) days before the report is submitted to the purchaser of the commercial fertilizer.

Upon the registrant's request, the state chemist shall furnish to the registrant part of the commercial fertilizer sample analyzed by the state chemist to determine that the registrant is subject to a penalty or other legal action under this chapter.
