1. 1. No person shall operate or conduct a laboratory in this state for the purpose of making agglutination tests, nor shall any person make such tests, without first securing from the department a permit to do so. The application for such permit shall be on a form prescribed by the department and shall set forth the name of the applicant and, if a corporation, the names of its principal officers, the location where such laboratory will be conducted, such tests made and the records thereof kept, a brief description of the training and experience of the applicant or the person in charge of making such tests, and such other information as the department may require to enable the department to determine the responsibility, qualifications and ability of the applicant to make agglutination tests.
2. 2. If the department finds that the applicant is responsible and appears to be qualified to make such tests, it shall issue a permit to the applicant. Such permit shall be issued for the period ending on the following June thirtieth, and shall be renewable from year to year on like application.
3. 3. Each person holding a permit to conduct such a laboratory and make such tests shall keep a record of all tests so made, including the name and address of the person for whom the tests were made, and shall report to the department the results of all tests made for persons or upon cattle located in this state. Such reports shall be made upon forms to be provided by the department and at such times as are required by sections 267.470 to 267.550 or by rules and regulations of the department.
4. 4. If the department finds that any applicant for permit is not responsible or is not qualified to make tests, it may refuse to issue a permit or to renew a permit. If the department finds that any person holding a permit is not correctly reporting the results of the tests made by such persons or if such persons shall fail to report the results of the tests made to the department, as herein required, the department may revoke such permit or may refuse to renew any such permit.
