The lessee, owner, or manager of a public grain warehouse which has furnished a bond and received a public grain warehouse license, shall receive for storage all grain offered for storage at the warehouse, which at the time of the offer are in suitable condition for storage, and which are tendered in the usual course of business. However, a warehouse operator may refuse to store grain if the capacity of the warehouse is exhausted or for other good cause. If requested, a warehouse operator that refuses to store grain shall provide the person requesting storage with the reason for the refusal in writing. The written notice of refusal shall state that the person being refused storage may file a complaint with the commission contesting the refusal. A violation of this section is a Class 1 misdemeanor.
