B. the total acres treated which are under the control of the land user assessed;
C. the total amount of state funds expended in the control district for the extermination program; and
D. the amount assessed against the land user. Assessments by local control committees shall be subject to the same delinquency period, discounts, penalties and interest as are applied to the collection of ad valorem taxes.
