When the condition of the food on which a stop order has been placed is such that immediate action is advisable, the commissioner shall endeavor to locate and inform the owner of such food of what action or disposal is contemplated. If the owner cannot be located, such notice shall be served upon the owner or manager of the warehouse in which such food is located and such service shall be deemed sufficient notice of such action. Unless the owner of the food, when so notified, shall immediately furnish the commissioner with notice of appeal for a hearing or unless such notice of appeal is made by the owner or manager of the cold storage warehouse in which such food is stored, the commissioner shall cause such food to be destroyed or otherwise disposed of, either in whole or in part and shall cause the stop order to be removed from such portion as may be found wholesome and fit for human consumption.
