Bond or certificate of deposit; requisites; cancellation; forfeiture proceedings; preliminary injunction or restraining order
Status: in_force

Sec. 3. (a) Every person registered as a timber buyer shall file with the department an effective surety bond issued by a corporate surety authorized to engage in the business of executing surety bonds in Indiana.

(b) Instead of the bond required by subsection (a), the department may accept security in cash or a certificate of deposit under terms established by rule.

(c) The security required under subsection (a) or (b) shall be made payable upon demand to the director, subject to this chapter, for the use and benefit of the people of Indiana and for the use and benefit of any timber grower from whom the applicant purchased and who is not paid by the applicant or for the use and benefit of any timber grower whose timber has been cut by the applicant or registrant or the applicant's or registrant's agents, and who has not been paid for the timber.

(d) The security required under subsection (a) or (b) shall be in the principal amount of five thousand dollars ($5,000) for an applicant who paid timber growers ten thousand dollars ($10,000) or less for timber during the immediate preceding year, and an additional one hundred dollars ($100) for each additional one thousand dollars ($1,000) or fraction thereof paid to timber growers for timber purchased during the preceding year. However:

(1) before January 1, 2017, the security required may not be more than twenty thousand dollars ($20,000); and

(2) after December 31, 2016, the security required may not be more than fifty thousand dollars ($50,000).

If an applicant has not previously engaged in business as a timber buyer, the amount of the bond shall be based on the estimated dollar amount to be paid by the timber buyer to timber growers for timber purchased during the next succeeding year, as set forth in the application.

(e) The security required under subsection (a) or (b) shall not be canceled or altered during the period for which the certificate to the applicant was issued except upon at least sixty (60) days notice in writing to the department.

(f) Security shall be in a form and contain the terms and conditions as may be approved from time to time by the director, be conditioned to secure an honest cutting and accounting for timber purchased by the registrant, secure payment to the timber growers, and insure the timber growers against all fraudulent acts of the registrant in the purchase and cutting of the timber of this state.

(g) If a timber buyer fails to pay when due any amount due a timber grower for timber purchased, or fails to pay legally determined damages for timber wrongfully cut by a timber buyer or the timber buyer's agent, or commits any violation of this chapter, an adjudicative proceeding on the bond for forfeiture may be commenced, and notice of the proceeding shall be provided, under IC 4-21.5-3-6. A surety or person in possession of the security provided under subsection (a) or (b) is entitled to notification of the proceeding. If a final agency action is entered by the department under this subsection against the timber buyer, the surety or other person in possession of the security shall deliver the amount of the security identified in the order. A proceeding for forfeiture of a timber buyer's bond under IC 4-21.5 is the exclusive remedy under law for the forfeiture of the bond.

(h) An owner of property seeking a preliminary injunction or restraining order against a person, corporation, or other entity to prevent or stop the wrongful cutting of timber on the owner's property is relieved of the requirement to post a bond or other security with the court as a prerequisite to the issuance of the preliminary injunction or restraining order. However, this subsection does not apply to a property owner who seeks a preliminary injunction or restraining order to prevent or stop alleged wrongful cutting by a timber cutter or timber buyer with whom the property owner had contracted for the cutting or sale of timber.

The notice must inform the holder of the license or certificate of the need to renew the license or certificate and the requirement of payment of the renewal fee.

If the one hundred twenty (120) day period expires without action by the board, the license or certificate is automatically renewed at the end of the one hundred twenty (120) day period.

(k) The board's renewal of a license or certificate does not preclude the board from imposing sanctions on the licensee or certificate holder as a result of a complaint filed by the attorney general after renewal of the license or certificate.

(l) Notwithstanding any other statute or rule, the agency may stagger license or certificate renewal cycles. However, if a renewal cycle for a specific board or committee is changed, the agency must obtain the approval of the affected board or committee.

(m) An application for a license, certificate, registration, or permit is abandoned without an action of the board, if the applicant does not complete the requirements to complete the application within one (1) year after the date on which the application was filed. However, the board may, for good cause shown, extend the validity of the application for additional thirty (30) day periods. An application submitted after the abandonment of an application is considered a new application.

(a) Oversight

(1) The executive, legislative, and judicial branches of state government in each member state shall enforce this Compact and take all actions necessary and appropriate to effectuate the Compact's purposes and intent. The provisions of this Compact and the rules promulgated hereunder shall have standing as statutory law.

A cure of the default does not relieve the offending state of obligations or liabilities incurred during the period of default.

(3) Termination of membership in the Compact shall be imposed only after all other means of securing compliance have been exhausted. Notice of intent to suspend or terminate shall be given by the Commission to the governor, the majority and minority leaders of the defaulting state's legislature, and each of the member states.

(4) A state that has been terminated is responsible for all assessments, obligations, and liabilities incurred through the effective date of termination, including obligations that extend beyond the effective date of termination.

(5) The Commission shall not bear any costs related to a state that is found to be in default or that has been terminated from the Compact, unless agreed upon in writing between the Commission and the defaulting state.

(6) The defaulting state may appeal the action of the Commission by petitioning the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia or the federal district where the Commission has its principal offices. The prevailing member shall be awarded all costs of such litigation, including reasonable attorney's fees.

(c) Dispute Resolution

(1) Upon request by a member state, the Commission shall attempt to resolve disputes related to the Compact that arise among member states and between member and nonmember states.

(2) The Commission shall promulgate a rule providing for both mediation and binding dispute resolution for disputes as appropriate.

(d) Enforcement

(1) The Commission, in the reasonable exercise of its discretion, shall enforce the provisions and rules of this Compact.

(2) By majority vote, the Commission may initiate legal action in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia or the federal district where the Commission has its principal offices against a member state in default to enforce compliance with the provisions of the Compact and its promulgated rules and bylaws. The relief sought may include both injunctive relief and damages. In the event judicial enforcement is necessary, the prevailing member shall be awarded all costs of such litigation, including reasonable attorney's fees.

(3) The remedies herein shall not be the exclusive remedies of the Commission. The Commission may pursue any other remedies available under federal or state law.
