Oregon Revised Statutes Chapter 632 § 632.960 — Appeal

Appeal to department for classification; fee. Whenever any quantity of any horticultural or agricultural product has been inspected under ORS 632.940 and 632.955 to 632.980 and a question arises as to whether the certificate issued therefor shows the true grade, classification, quality or condition of such product, any interested person, subject to such regulations as the State Department of Agriculture may prescribe, may appeal the question to the department. The department is authorized to cause such investigation to be made and such tests to be applied as it may deem necessary and to determine and issue a finding as to the true grade or classification of the product or the quality or condition thereof. Whenever any appeal is taken to the department under this section it shall charge and assess and collect, or cause to be collected, a reasonable fee, to be fixed by it, which shall be refunded if the appeal is sustained.
