(c)

Those wholesale fish dealers or canners authorized to use the sampling procedure in subsection (5)(b) of this rule are subject to inspection for accuracy by the Department or by the Oregon State Police, at any time. Authorization for use of a sampling procedure may be withdrawn if, in the judgment of the Department, the procedure employed is likely to be inaccurate.
