or other method of facsimile reproduction reasonably available; and
(2) Used only under the direction and
supervision of the county treasurer whose signature it represents; and

reproduction is at all times kept securely locked, when not in use, in a

facsimile image or impression must be kept in a separate secure place
authorized by the county treasurer; and
(2) Any registered key, password or other
securing device or procedure is severable from the device or other method of
facsimile reproduction, the registered key, password or other securing device

a device or other method of facsimile reproduction authorized by the provisions
of this section must not be combined with the signature of another officer.
