Section 75111.

(a) Within 90 days after the effective date of this chapter, the director shall establish a list of handlers subject to the provisions of this chapter and who are otherwise eligible to vote on implementation of this chapter. In establishing this list, the director may require handlers, county agricultural commissioners, and others to submit the name and mailing address of, and the volume, if known, handled by each handler. The request for this information shall be in writing. The information required by the director shall be filed within 30 days following receipt of the written notice.

(b) Any handler, whose name does not appear upon the director's list of handlers affected, may have his or her name included on the list by filing with the director a signed statement identifying himself or herself as a handler. Failure to be on this list does not exempt the handler from paying assessments under this chapter.

(c) Additionally, the director may use other sources of information necessary to secure that information to establish the list.
