§ 160.61 Kinds of certificates issued.

A certificate as provided for by section 4 of the act shall be issued to the interested person in duplicate covering naval stores examined at his request, and additional copies, if desired, may be obtained from the inspector. The kind of certificates issued are as follows:

§ 160.62 When a certificate may be issued.

A certificate showing the results of any analysis, classification, or grading shall be issued on any naval stores which conform with a United States Standard as to kind and grade and which have been sampled by or under the direction and supervision of an official inspector in accordance with the provisions in this part. The certificate shall be valid only so long as the naval stores described therein shall remain under seal or in the identical condition obtaining at the time of their examination.

§ 160.63 When a certificate may not be issued.

No certificate shall be issued for naval stores unless the naval stores have been packed, sampled, marked, and identified as required by the provisions in this part, and otherwise conform with the act and such provisions. The results of the examination of such naval stores or anything offered as such may be covered by a written report, which in no case shall be construed as a certificate.

§ 160.64 Issuance of loan and sale certificate.

On request of the owner, a “Loan and Sale Certificate for United States Graded Rosin” (designated “L. S. Certificate” in this part) may be issued to cover any rosin for which a Rosin Classification and Grade Certificate has previously been issued by an official inspector, and which remains in the original container. No inspector shall issue and L. S. Certificate until he has made certain that the rosin had previously been officially inspected and certified. The request for such certificate may be made to the nearest inspector.

§ 160.65 Prior certification required.

If an L. S. Certificate is desired for a quantity of rosin, a part of which has not been previously classified and graded by an official inspector and covered by a certificate, such part shall be so inspected, classified, graded, marked, and certified, as provided by the provisions in this part.
