The Commissioner is authorized to prescribe physical standards for buildings and premises used for the receipt and/or storage of Carry-over tobacco.

The standards shall be such that in order to carry out the provisions of this Act to the end that any producer of carry-over tobacco being held for storage may be assured that the carry-over tobacco stored by him is maintained in as nearly the same status as practicable according to the grade, standard and condition as when stored. The Commissioner or his agent, is authorized to inspect the premises where the carry over tobacco is being stored as often as he shall deem necessary. Any condition of the storage building which presents a hazard to tobacco being stored shall be immediately abated and corrected, and such correction shall be subject to approval of an authorized representative of the Commissioner.
