Section 2735 - Supplemental Cottonseed Product Controls

This section supplements the control of cottonseed products to ensure that these products meet the tolerance for aflatoxins, established in Section 2734(a)(6).

(a) Each lot, or truck, railcar, ship, barge, container, air transport, or any other means of transportation of cottonseed products originating outside of California, as a condition of entry into California, shall be accompanied by the following:
(1) A completed form furnished by the secretary (Certificate of Movement of Cottonseed Products, Rev. 12-09), incorporated by reference, stating the origin and destination of the cottonseed products.
(2) An analysis certificate reporting the results of sampling and laboratory testing for aflatoxins, showing compliance with the aflatoxins tolerances stated in Section 2734(a)(6), the name of the testing laboratory, and the testing laboratory report number representing the lot of cottonseed products identified on the certificate.
(3) A label with guaranteed analyses that complies with Section 2694 and Section 2783.
(b) Shipment of cottonseed products, which do not meet the tolerance for aflatoxins established in Section 2734(a)(6), shall be refused entry into California, except for entry for transportation to a site operating under authority of the secretary for aflatoxin detoxification or oil extraction, with the exception of products intended for export or non-feed usage.
(c) Documentation for all shipments, originating outside of California, by railcar, truck, ship, barge, container, or air transportation, with the exception of products intended for export or non-feed usage, shall be mailed to the Department on or before the shipment date and documents shall be affixed to, or accompany the lot to the purchaser. All truck shipments shall submit to inspection at California border stations and a copy of all required documentation shall accompany the lot to the purchaser. Failure to obtain such document inspection, or diversion after document inspection, shall be grounds for seizure and quarantine of the shipment.
(d) Cottonseed products originating in Riverside and Imperial counties of California shall move only to a detoxification or oil extraction site approved by the secretary, unless the products are certified by laboratory testing showing that the product is within the tolerance for aflatoxins established in Section 2734(a)(6). Such laboratory certifications shall be affixed to, or accompany the lot to the purchaser.
