A public
hearing will be conducted at 1:00 p.m. on Friday, July 22, 2022, to consider
the adoption of proposed regulations that govern the administration of the
Kansas Grain Warehouse Law. The hearing will be held in person at the Kansas
Department of Agriculture at 1320 Research Park Dr. in Manhattan, as well as
via video conferencing system.
KDA is proposing
new regulations, amendments to existing regulations, and the revocation of some
existing regulations related to grain warehouses in Kansas. These changes are
proposed in order to implement the recent changes to the schedule of public
warehouse license fees set out in K.S.A. 34-228, as well as to implement
current industry policies and practices and to provide more detailed guidance for
grain warehouse requirements.
A copy of the
proposed regulations, as well as an expanded notice of public hearing, may be
accessed on the KDA website at agriculture.ks.gov/PublicComment. Anyone
desiring to participate via video conference must pre-register at that page to
be provided with a video link. Written comments can be submitted on the public
comment web page prior to the hearing or sent to the Kansas Department of
Agriculture, 1320 Research Park Dr., Manhattan, KS 66502.
Any individual with
a disability may request accommodation in order to participate in the public
hearing and may request a copy of the regulations in an accessible format.
