(3) A warehouseman not operating a warehouse the previous year may procure a license by paying the license fee based upon the total estimated pounds that the new warehouseman estimates he or she will market during the complete marketing season.

(4) A new warehouseman operating an old warehouse shall pay license fee based on sales of the preceding year by the previous warehouseman.

(5) The fees levied shall be based on official statistical data reported to the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services by the United States Department of Agriculture.

The insurance policy shall be written by an insurance company of the warehouseman’s choice authorized to transact business in this state, and such insurance coverage shall be approved in form by the Office of Insurance Regulation of the Financial Services Commission, and a copy of the insurance policy shall be filed with the director of the Division of Marketing and Development of the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.
