Sec. 15. (a) An individual who acts as the agent of a timber buyer must have an agent's license and carry the agent's card that verifies the license.
(b) An agent's license may be granted only:
(1) to qualified individuals;
(2) at the written application of the timber buyer who the agent is to represent; and
(3) under that timber buyer's registration certificate.
(c) The application for an agent's license must contain the agent's full name, address, and other information as required by the department on forms supplied by the department. Each timber buyer is responsible for all of the agent's activities performed while acting under the timber buyer's registration certificate as they pertain to this chapter.
(d) An application fee of twenty dollars ($20) for each agent shall be charged for the license and agent's card.
(e) An agent's license may be revoked by the department under IC 4-21.5 if the agent does not comply with this section.
(f) An agent may have a license to represent only one (1) timber buyer. However, upon surrendering the agent's card and license under one (1) timber buyer, an individual may be licensed as an agent of another timber buyer.
(g) A timber buyer may not be licensed as an agent except as the principal agent of that timber buyer.
(h) A timber buyer may not effect or attempt to effect a purchase except through an agent.
(i) A timber buyer may terminate an agency relationship by notifying in writing the agent and the department. Termination of an agency relationship revokes the agent's license.
(j) A person who acts as an agent without a license commits a Class B misdemeanor.
