Permit to Report the Tonnage of Commercial Fertilizers

The Permit to Report the Tonnage of Commercial Fertilizers is required for All Fertilizer Registrants (IC 15-16-2-34).

All registrants selling commercial fertilizer in packages greater than 12 pounds or in bulk in the State of Indiana are required to obtain a Permit to Report Tonnage from the Office of Indiana State Chemist.

This permit authorizes registrants to report the tonnage of commercial fertilizer sold within the state and to pay an inspection fee of $0.45 per ton based on those sales. The inspection fee supports the enforcement of Indiana fertilizer laws under Indiana Code IC 15-16-2-34 and allows OISC to be a self-funded agency.
