Extends the dairy inspection program in Washington until June 30, 2031.

The bill amends existing law to extend the dairy inspection program in Washington until June 30, 2031. It levies an assessment on all milk processed in the state, not exceeding fifty-four one-hundredths of one cent per hundredweight. The collected funds support the inspection program to ensure compliance with the pasteurized milk ordinance. Milk processing plants with monthly assessments under $20 are exempt from the assessment. The director determines the assessment amount, which includes contributions from the general fund.
