If the warehouse is owned or managed by a corporation, the name of the president, secretary, and treasurer of the corporation shall be stated. The application shall also state that the applicant is seeking a public grain warehouse license and shall contain financial information depicting the financial condition of the business at the time of the application. The application shall contain the affirmation statement set forth in § 22-29-9.1. The application shall be signed by the owner, managing partner, or chief executive officer of the applicant and shall be notarized.
If a warehouseman has more than one public grain warehouse in the same municipality, only one license is required for all the public grain warehouses.

49-43-5.9. Upon revocation, termination, or cancellation of a warehouse license, any claim against the warehouseman arising under this chapter shall be made in writing with the commission within six months after receiving notice of revocation, termination, or cancellation. Upon revocation of a warehouse license, the commission shall publish notice of the revocation once each week for two consecutive weeks in a newspaper of general circulation in each county in which the licensee maintains a business location and in a newspaper of general circulation within the state. The
commission shall also send notice of the revocation by certified mail to each grain storage receipt and scale ticket holder named in the audit prepared pursuant to § 49-43-5.8. The notice shall state the name and address of the warehouseman, the effective date of revocation, and the name and address of the surety on the warehouse bond. The notice shall also state that any claims against the warehouseman shall be made in writing and sent by ordinary mail to the commission within six months after receiving notice of revocation.
