§ 62072 Handler Service Charge Factors

In establishing minimum handler service charges under Section 62071, the director shall take into consideration all relevant factors, including, but not limited to, the following: (a) The reasonably necessary costs of providing such services, including overhead, as determined by impartial cost surveys, examination of books and records, or both, of such portions of those handlers within the marketing area as are reasonably determined by the director to be sufficiently representative to indicate such costs of all reasonably efficient handlers within such marketing area. (b) The relationship of the establishment of such minimum charges to the achievement and maintenance of the orderly marketing of market milk and to the effectuation of the purposes of this chapter.
