A composite sample shall contain a preservative and it shall contain aliquot parts from each lot of milk collected. The preservative must be capable of keeping the composite sample in suitable condition for testing for a period of at least 30 days. Each composite sample shall be held in an airtight bottle, to be labeled with the name or number of the milk producer. (b) After the composite samples have been tested, their residues shall be held intact and in a suitable condition for retesting for a period of 15 days. (c) All milk producers shall be notified within 5 days after the close of the period giving such producer the results of the butterfat test on the composite sample.

If the composite sample should in some manner be destroyed during the period and it becomes necessary to use fresh samples as the basis of settlement at least 3 fresh samples shall be taken from 3 separate deliveries of milk. (e) Reports of all butterfat tests shall be made to the Department of Agriculture at the close of each testing period. If butterfat tests vary more than 0.02% from one testing period to the next testing period, a retest shall be made and reported.
