Under current law an assessment is levied on all milk processed in the state not to exceed fifty-four one-hundredths of one cent per hundredweight. WSDA collects approximately $297,000 each year from this assessment. The assessment is set to expire June 30, 2020.

 

House Bill 1429 would extend the assessment for five more years, to June 30, 2025. We assume the amount of cash receipts will continue at the current level.
