What it does

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

Current law requires operators of dairy plants to pay to the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP) monthly milk procurement fees based on the amount of milk they receive from dairy farmers. Under current law, the fees are due by the 18th of each month. This bill changes the due date for milk procurement fees to the 25th of each month.

Currently the statutes specify amounts of milk procurement fees, which apply unless DATCP specifies different amounts by rule. DATCP's current rules specify amounts for the fees that differ from those in the statutes. This bill eliminates the statutory language specifying the amounts of milk procurement fees.
