(a) The board establishes the following schedule of license fees to be paid by licensees:

(1) Each licensed producer shall pay a license fee of 1.263 per cent of the gross value on all milk which the licensed producer delivers to a distributor or producer-distributor for processing;

(2) Each licensed distributor or producer-distributor shall pay a license fee of 1.263 per cent of the gross value on all milk which the licensed distributor or producer-distributor receives from licensed producers for processing;

(3) Each licensed producer-distributor shall pay a license fee of 2.527 per cent of the gross value on all milk produced by the licensed producer-distributor's dairy which the licensed producer-distributor processes;

(4) Each licensed distributor or producer-distributor who processes any recombined, reconstituted, or filled milk shall pay a license fee that is equivalent to the percentage value established in paragraph (2) converted to hundredweight on all the milk processed; and

(5) Each licensed distributor or producer-distributor who receives milk produced elsewhere in the State of Hawaii from any source other than a licensed producer or producer-distributor shall pay a license fee of 1.263 per cent of the gross value on all whole milk received from the source or sources for processing or distribution.

(b) Within any milk shed, the board may suspend the collection of license fees or lower the license fee rate on the fifteenth day or at the end of any given month for the remainder of the current fiscal year if the board finds that the action will result in license fee collections sufficient to meet the expenditures necessary to administer chapter 157, HRS, within that milk shed for that fiscal year.
