Summary

Existing law defines a weighmaster as any person, who, for hire or otherwise, weighs, measures, or counts any commodity and issues a statement or memorandum of the weight, measure, or count which is used as the basis for either the purchase or sale of that commodity or charge for service. Existing law requires weighmasters to obtain a license. Existing law specifies certain persons who weigh and measure commodities but are not weighmasters, such as retailers weighing commodities for sale in retail stores in the presence of consumers, newspaper publishers weighing newspapers for sale to dealers, and recycling centers weighing salvage materials for specified purposes. This bill, until January 1, 2017, would provide that facilities handling medical waste and that report net weights, and not estimates, to the generator of the medical waste and to the State Department of Public Health, are not weighmasters, as specified.
