§ 1303.4 - Notices to producers.

Each handler shall furnish each producer from whom he receives milk the following information regarding the weight and butterfat test of the milk:

(a) Whenever he receives milk from the producer on the basis of farm bulk tank measurements, the handler shall give the producer at the time the milk is picked up at the farm a receipt indicating the measurement and the equivalent pounds of milk received;

(b) Whenever he receives milk from the producer on a basis other than farm bulk tank measurements, the handler shall give the producer within three (3) days after receipt of the milk a written notice of the quantity so received;

(c) If butterfat tests of the producer's milk are determined from fresh milk samples, the handler shall give the producer within ten (10) days after the end of each month a written notice of the producer's average butterfat test for the month. Such notice shall not be required if the handler has given the producer a written notice of the butterfat test for each of the sampling periods within the month; and

(d) If butterfat tests of the producer's milk are determined from composite milk samples, the handler shall give the producer within seven (7) days after the end of each sampling period a written notice of the producer's average butterfat test for the period.
