§ 3.1-340. (Repealed effective October 1, 2008) When special grades, marks, brands, etc., allowed

Any person desiring to pack, mark, and/or sell or offer for sale any agricultural product under any grade, trademark, brand, or other markings relating to grade, quality or size, not established and promulgated by the Director, may file with the Director a certificate setting forth the description of such special grade, trademark, brand, or other markings. For this purpose a brand, trademark or other markings may represent a grade. If, upon the filing of such certificate the Director, with the approval of the Commissioner, approves of the completeness of definitions of such special grade, trademark, brand, or other markings set forth in the certificate, such special grade, trademark, brand or other markings may thereafter be used by the person filing the certificate; provided, that such grade terminology, trademark, brand or other markings and/or definitions are in no way deceptive; and provided, further, that definitions used to describe grade, classifications, quality, condition, size, variety and/or other characteristics of agricultural products shall show clearly wherein they differ from the official grades.
