South Dakota grain elevators and other businesses that measure moisture and protein in agricultural commodities must now have their measuring devices inspected annually by the Department of Public Safety to ensure accuracy. Devices that pass inspection will receive an official seal, while those that fail will be marked as defective and cannot be used for commerce. The bill establishes this new inspection requirement and authorizes the department to set and collect fees for conducting these inspections.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
