When delivery is made within thirty (30) days from date of demand, or as agreed upon in writing by all parties concerned, such delivery is deemed to comply with the provisions of this section. An extension of the delivery period may be granted by the department upon written request.
(3) A warehouseman shall not fail to deliver an agricultural commodity as provided in this section, and delivery shall be made at the warehouse or station where the agricultural commodity was received, unless otherwise agreed.

69-256. CREATION OF INDEMNITY FUND — USES. (1) There is hereby established within the dedicated fund a fund to be known as the commodity indemnity fund. The commodity indemnity fund shall consist of assessments remitted by producers pursuant to the provisions of this chapter and any interest or earnings on the fund balance.
(2) All assessments shall be paid to the department and shall be deposited in the commodity indemnity fund. Assessments shall be paid solely by producers who deposit or deliver a commodity with a warehouse or sell to a dealer or warehouse. A delivery of commodity between producers, none of which are commodity dealers or warehousemen, is exempt from the collection and payment of assessment. The state treasurer shall be the custodian of the commodity indemnity fund. Disbursements shall be on authorization of the director. No appropriation is required for disbursements from this fund.
(3) The commodity indemnity fund and accruing interest shall be used exclusively for purposes of paying claimants pursuant to this chapter and chapter 5, title 69, Idaho Code, and paying necessary expenses and costs of administering the commodity indemnity fund. Provided however, that each year, accrued interest for that year shall be applied to pay necessary expenses and costs of administering the fund, regardless of the amount, to the extent of available accrued interest. In the event the accrued interest is insufficient to pay the necessary expenses and costs of administering the fund in any particular year, then accrued interest shall first be applied to those costs and expenses. The remaining costs and expenses will be paid with principal from the commodity indemnity fund. In no event, however, shall payments from principal in any given year exceed the sum of two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000). The interest accumulated by the fund may be paid to the department and to the state treasurer to defray costs of administering the warehouse and dealer program and the commodity indemnity fund. The interest accumulated by the fund and, if necessary, a portion of the fund, may be used to defray the cost of reinsuring the fund at the discretion of the director. The state of Idaho shall not be liable for any claims presented against the fund.

(2) Except as provided in this subsection, the rate of the assessment shall be established by rules promulgated by the department.

69-258. COLLECTION AND REMITTANCE OF ASSESSMENTS — PRINCIPAL AMOUNT HELD IN TRUST — INTEREST EARNED — FAILURE TO COLLECT OR REMIT ASSESSMENTS CONSTITUTES A VIOLATION — INTEREST AND PENALTIES FOR UNPAID ASSESSMENTS. (1) The department shall promulgate rules to provide a procedure for the collection and remittance of the producer’s assessments. Any warehouseman or dealer who owes producers for the sale or transfer of a commodity, or have stored for withdrawal a commodity, shall be responsible for the collection of the producer’s assessments and the remittance of the assessments collected to the department.
(2) Warehousemen or dealers shall remit to the department assessments collected according to the provisions of this chapter. Payments will be made no later than the twentieth day of the month following the close of the calendar quarter on a form prescribed by the department. There are four (4) calendar quarters in the year, beginning on the first day of the months of January, April, July and October. Assessment reports shall be submitted even though assessments for the period have not been collected. Failure to do so will result in a penalty of one hundred dollars ($100).
(3) The principal amount of assessments paid by, or deducted from, payments to producers by warehousemen or dealers, are held in trust for the commodity indemnity fund immediately upon collection by any warehouseman or dealer and are not property of the warehouseman or dealer.
(4) Interest earned on assessments prior to remittance to the department belongs to the warehouseman or dealer.
(5) If a warehouseman or dealer fails to collect or remit assessments as required, it shall be considered a violation of this chapter and shall subject the warehouseman or dealer to suspension or revocation of any license issued to the warehouseman or dealer under the provisions of this chapter.
(6) The department shall collect, on assessments unpaid within the time limits specified in this chapter, interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum until the assessments are remitted together with a penalty of five percent (5%) each month on the unpaid assessment due until the maximum penalty of twenty-five percent (25%) is reached.

The department may, when it has reason to believe that a licensee does not have the ability to pay producers for commodities purchased, or when it determines that the licensee does not have a sufficient net worth to outstanding financial obligations ratio, require from the licensee the posting of a bond or other additional security in an amount to be prescribed by rule. The additional security may exceed the maximum amount set forth in this chapter. Failure of the licensee to timely post the additional bond or other security constitutes grounds for suspension or revocation of a license issued under this chapter. The licensee may request a hearing regarding the decision to increase the amount of security required or the revocation or suspension of a license pursuant to this section and may appeal such decisions pursuant to the procedure set out in section 69-246, Idaho Code.
