A.  A purchaser shall render and have on file a report with the
Sheep and Wool Utilization, Research and Market Development
Commission by the fifteenth day of each calendar quarter following
any calendar quarter in which such purchaser has purchased five
hundred (500) or more sheep for slaughter, or in which such
purchaser has purchased five thousand (5,000) pounds of wool for
processing.  If less than five hundred (500) sheep or less than five
thousand (5,000) pounds of wool have been purchased in any calendar
quarter, the applicable fee may be reported and remitted with the
following quarter's return except that all fees collected must be
remitted at least once every six (6) months.
B.  In case any person, business or entity, public or private,
subject to the fee, fails to make a report and remittance when and
as required, the Sheep and Wool Utilization, Research and Market
Development Commission shall determine the amount of such fee
according to its best information and judgment, which amount so
fixed shall be prima facie correct.  A person having failed to make
the report shall, within ten (10) days after notice of the amount of
the fee fixed and computed by the Commission is mailed to the
person, pay such fee, together with a penalty of five percent (5%)
of the amount of the fee.  The person may dispute the fee as fixed
by the Commission.  The person may request the Commission to hold a
hearing to determine the amount of the fee and penalty to be
imposed.  No payment shall be made until the Commission enters its
order determining the amount of the payment.  If and when the
Commission determines the amount of the payment, such payment shall
be paid within ten (10) days of notice of the payment decision.
