2-1222.   Issuance of stop sale or stop use orders.
(a) The secretary or a duly authorized representative of the
secretary,
acting as the enforcing officer, may issue and enforce a written or printed
stop sale or stop use order to the owner or custodian of any facility or
equipment used for the storage, handling or transportation of anhydrous ammonia
which the secretary or duly authorized representative determines is not in
compliance with the provisions of K.S.A. 2-1212 through 2-1220, and amendments
thereto, or any rules and regulations adopted thereunder. The stop sale or
stop
use order shall prohibit the sale of anhydrous ammonia or prohibit further use
of such facility or equipment for the handling, storage or transportation of
anhydrous ammonia, except on approval of the enforcing officer, until the
enforcing officer has evidence that the law and rules and regulations have been
complied with and issues a release from the stop sale or stop use order. Any
stop sale or stop use order issued pursuant to this subsection is subject to
review in accordance with the act for judicial review and civil enforcement of
agency actions. The provisions of this subsection shall not be construed as
limiting the right of the enforcement officer to proceed as authorized by other
provisions of the statutes contained in article 12 of chapter 2 of the Kansas
Statutes Annotated, and amendments thereto.

     
(b)   This section shall be part of and supplemental to the provisions of
K.S.A. 2-1212 through 2-1220, and amendments thereto.
