STATE MILK COMMISSION

AGENCY SUMMARY

The State Milk Commission is broadly authorized to supervise, regulate, and control the production, transportation, processing, storage, distribution, delivery, and sale of milk. It has specific authority to license distributors; fix prices paid to producers; establish minimum and maximum wholesale and retail prices; define marketing areas; promulgate accounting systems for distributors; levy assessments for administrative expenses and collect the same from distributors; inspect books and records and require reports; act as a mediator; cooperate with other authorities; make, adopt, and enforce rules, regulations, and orders; take depositions and administer oaths; and issue subpoenas. The general powers granted by the statute are not qualified by these grants of specific powers, but the commission may fix minimum retail prices only where necessary to prevent market disruption.
