203C.11 Suspension or revocation for insufficient evidence of financial responsibility — notice.   1. The department shall proceed under section 203C.15 if it has cause to believe that a licensed warehouse operator does not provide for and carry an insurance policy as required in that section.   2. If the department determines that the net worth of a licensed warehouse operator is not in compliance with the requirements of section 203C.6, the department shall issue a notice to the warehouse operator and shall suspend the warehouse operator’s license if the warehouse operator does not provide evidence of compliance within thirty days of the issuance of the notice. The department shall inspect the warehouse at the end of the thirty-day period. If evidence of compliance is not provided within sixty days of the issuance of the notice, the department shall revoke the warehouse operator’s license, and shall again inspect the warehouse. If a license is revoked, the department shall give notice of the revocation to each holder of an outstanding warehouse receipt and to all known persons who have grain retained in open storage. The revocation notice shall state that the grain must be removed from the warehouse not later than the thirtieth day after the issuance of the revocation notice. The revocation notice shall be sent by ordinary mail to the last known address of each person having grain in storage as provided in this subsection. The department shall conduct a final inspection of the warehouse at the end of the thirty-day period following the issuance of the revocation notice.   3. When the department receives notice that a deficiency bond or irrevocable letter of credit is being canceled by the issuer, and determines that upon the cancellation the warehouse operation will not be in compliance with section 203C.6, the department shall suspend the warehouse operator’s license if a new deficiency bond or irrevocable letter of credit is not received by the department within sixty days of receipt by the department of the notice of cancellation. If a new deficiency bond or irrevocable letter of credit is not received by the department within thirty days following suspension, the warehouse operator’s license shall be revoked. When a license is revoked, the department shall notify each holder of an outstanding warehouse receipt and all known persons who have grain retained in open storage of the revocation, and shall further notify each receipt holder and all known persons who have grain retained in open storage that the grain must be removed from the warehouse not later than the thirtieth day following revocation. The notice shall be sent by ordinary mail to the last known address of each person having grain in storage as provided in this subsection.
