1. (1) Each dairy farm, milk plant, receiving station, transfer station and milk distributor whose milk or milk products are intended for consumption within Missouri or its jurisdiction and each milk hauler who collects samples of raw milk for pasteurization, for bacterial, chemical or temperature standards and hauls milk from a dairy farm to a milk plant, transfer station or receiving station and bulk milk pick-up tanker and its appurtenances shall be inspected by the regulatory agency prior to the issuance of a permit. Following the issuance of a permit, each bulk milk pickup tanker, milk hauler, dairy farm, milk distributor and transfer station shall be inspected at least once every six (6) months.
