1600.4—Scheduling of meetings.
Reclaimed rosin is rosin that has been recovered or reclaimed by any means from waste or deteriorated material: Provided, That such reclaimed product may be graded as rosin under the act and the provisions in this part only if the concentration of rosin acids therein has not been reduced below the concentration normal for rosin, and any residual or contaminating component remaining from the waste material itself or from any article used in the recovery process is not sufficient to cause the physical or chemical properties of the reclaimed product to differ substantially from the normal properties of rosin.
Each applicant for a license shall be required to demonstrate his qualifications and competency to perform the duties of an official inspector at such time and place and in such manner as may be determined by the Administrator.
In a case of special urgency, and in the discretion of the Administrator, a temporary license may be issued without reference to § 160.40 upon presentation of satisfactory evidence by the accredited processor of the need therefor and the competency of the applicant for such temporary license. Such processor shall receive prompt notice of the issuance of any such temporary license. A temporary licensee shall be subject to all the provisions in this part. A temporary license shall be valid for a specified period not to exceed 30 days, except that if application is made for a permanent license by a person at the same time he applies for a temporary license, any temporary license issued to him shall not expire until a permanent license has been denied or granted.
The license issued by the Administrator to a licensed inspector of naval stores shall state the name of the processing plant or plants at which the licensee may perform the duties of an official inspector, and shall be countersigned by such official as may be designated and authorized.
No person who determines or controls sales policies or methods of distribution of an eligible processing plant, or the selling prices of the naval stores processed at such plant, shall be licensed as an inspector.
A licensed inspector may perform duties other than those of an official inspector, to the extent indicated by the accredited processor and not disapproved in writing by the Administrator: Provided, That such additional duties not pertaining to the official inspection work shall not be permitted to interfere with the proper performance of the duties of the licensee as an official inspector.
The work performed by licensed inspectors under the provisions in this part shall be supervised and reviewed by authorized representatives of the Administrator, who shall issue to such licensed inspectors instructions for taking, preserving, and identifying samples; marking and maintaining the identity of containers when filled; preparing, issuing, and disposing of certificates; the keeping of adequate inspection records; and such other procedures as may be necessary in carrying out the licensed inspection. The handling, sampling, grading, marking, and certification of naval stores at an eligible processing plant by a licensed inspector shall be conducted in accordance with such instructions and the provisions in this part.
Containers packed with naval stores which have been inspected, classified, graded, and certified by a licensed inspector at an eligible processing plant shall be marked to show the name and location or other acceptable identification of the plant, and the legend “U.S. Graded” or “U.S. Inspected”, and, in the case of rosin, the batch number indicating the date of production.
Any eligible processing plant may from time to time be re-inspected and any rosin produced by such plant may be graded or re-graded by any official inspector authorized to make such examinations. The results of such examinations shall be made known only to the affected processor, the licensed inspector, and to such employees of the Department officially authorized to receive such information.
The certificates issued under this part by licensed inspectors shall be on forms approved by the Administrator.
Certificate forms and other inspection record forms may be issued to an accredited processor, and the said processor shall be responsible for and accountable to the Department for all such material supplied to him. He shall require the licensed inspector to submit or otherwise make disposition of issued certificates in accordance with instructions received from the Administrator.
A decision to hold a meeting of the Board should be made as provided in the bylaws of the Bank and at least ten days prior to the scheduled meeting date in order for the Secretary of the Bank to give the public notice required by § 1600.5. Special meetings of the Board may be held on less than ten days notice if a majority of the Board determines by a recorded vote that Bank business requires that the special meeting be held on less than ten days notice. After public announcement of a meeting of the Board under the provisions of § 1600.5, the subject matter thereof, or the determination to open or close a meeting, or portion thereof, may only be changed if a majority of the Directors determines by a recorded vote that business so requires and that no earlier announcement of the change is possible.
