12:82:06:04Disposal inspection.

The department or the Department of Public Safety may conduct disposal verification inspections to verify that the lot is disposed of in a manner that renders the lot non-retrievable, non-ingestible, and unfit to enter the stream of commerce. The grower licensee or a key participant must be present at the inspection. A disposal inspection is not required for the disposal of industrial hemp lots damaged or destroyed due to pests, insects, weeds, disease, or poor stand, or destroyed by a natural disaster or the weather.
