(a) In order to carry out this part, the Commissioner or his designated agent may enter into or upon any place during reasonable business hours where dimension lumber is being sold or offered for sale to determine if this part is being complied with.

(b) The Commissioner may issue and enforce written or printed stop sale, stop use, or removal orders to the owners or custodians of any dimension lumber, ordering them to hold the same at a designated place, when the Commissioner finds such dimension lumber being offered for sale in violation of this part, until the law has been complied with and such dimension lumber has been released, in writing, by the Commissioner or the violations have been otherwise legally disposed of by written authority. The Commissioner shall release the dimension lumber when the requirements of this part have been complied with.

(c) Any dimension lumber not in compliance with this part shall be subject to seizure on the complaint of the Commissioner to the superior court of the county in which the dimension lumber is found. If the court finds the dimension lumber to be in violation of this part and orders its condemnation, the dimension lumber shall be disposed of in any manner consistent with its quality, the interests of the parties, and the laws of this state, provided that in no instance shall the disposition of the dimension lumber be ordered by the court without first giving the claimant an opportunity to apply to the court for release of the dimension lumber in such manner as to bring it into compliance with this part.
