For the purpose of checking compliance with recordkeeping requirements and verifying reports filed by handlers, the Secretary and the Industry Committee through its duly authorized employees shall have access to any premises where peaches are held and, at any time during reasonable business hours, shall be permitted to examine any peaches held and any and all records with respect to matters within the purview of this part. Handlers shall furnish labor necessary to facilitate such examinations at no expense to the Industry Committee. All handlers shall maintain complete records which accurately show the quantity of peaches held, sold, and shipped. The Industry Committee, with the approval of the Secretary, may establish the type of records to be maintained. Such records shall be retained by handlers for not less than two years subsequent to the termination of each fiscal period.
