-1195-that producers and elevators will bring more samples to the state grain laboratoryand should more than make up for the combined $700 per month loss.While these changes appear to result in a $700 per month loss to the state grainlaboratory, it would only take about 90 more samples per month to make up theapproximate $700 per month loss of revenue. That is calculated by taking 90samples x $8.00 = $720. During harvest, it might only take three farmers to send in30 samples each, which is not uncommon, to make up the loss of revenue. Oncethe word is out about the fee changes and visits are made to the elevatorsexplaining the changes, we expect this will generate more samples being graded bythe state grain laboratory. Overall, it is believed the financial impact will be anincrease in revenue, but the department is unable to accurately calculate it at thistime.In (3)(k), we are replacing the word qualitative with quantitative. The quantitativetest gives a more precise reading of parts per million which is what producers andelevators are requesting.In (5)(j)(i), due to the fact that some barley contracts require the 48 hour blotter or 72hour blotter, adding these will enable producers/elevators to utilize the state grainlaboratory. Since these are uncommon tests, we expect financial impact to beminimal.In (5)(j)(ii), chit determination was removed because the state grain laboratory is nolonger performing the test. Since chit determination is not a common test, we expectfinancial impact to be minimal.4.
