(a) After receiving the nursery license application, the Department or its representatives shall examine or inspect all plants, plant
material, or nursery stock located or grown on the business location or any other applicable location. Nurseries must maintain adequate
weed control so a thorough inspection of the nursery stock can be made.
(b) The Department shall conduct the aforementioned inspection or examination yearly or as directed by the Secretary, at such time as
it deems best, with or without notice. The Department reserves the right to conduct unannounced inspections as frequently as it deems
necessary to ensure compliance with all sections of this chapter.
(c) Upon the successful completion of an annual inspection, the Department shall issue a nursery inspection certificate to any business
licensed under § 1302 of this title. The nursery inspection certificate shall state:
The nursery stock of this location has been examined and is apparently free from dangerously injurious plant pests.
(d) The nursery inspection certificate issued by the Department shall be valid for a period of 1 year, beginning January 1 and ending
December 31 of the same year.
