      2-2120.   Live plant dealer's license; application fees; sale of live plants, conditions. Every live plant dealer, before selling or offering for sale or delivering any live plants in this state, shall procure from the secretary a live plant dealer's license for each location and vehicle from which the live plant dealer offers such live plants for sale. Application for such license shall be made on a form furnished by the secretary, and the fee for each application shall be fixed by rules and regulations adopted by the secretary, except that such fee shall not exceed $60, and shall not apply to live plant dealers whose total annual retail live plant sales are less than $10,000. The application fee in effect on the day preceding the effective date of this act shall continue in effect until the secretary adopts rules and regulations fixing a different application fee under this section. The dealer's license shall expire on January 31, following date of issue, except that all valid certificates of nursery inspection and nursery dealer licenses issued by the secretary that are scheduled to expire in 2002 shall remain valid until January 31, 2003. A live plant dealer may sell only live plants which are in compliance with all quarantines and regulated nonquarantine pest freedom standards established by the secretary, or live plants accompanied by a valid certificate of inspection of a federal inspector or inspector of another state, stating that such live plants comply with all applicable quarantines and regulated nonquarantine pest freedom standards. Except where restricted by a quarantine, live plants transplanted on one contiguous property are exempt from the provisions of this act.
