ATCP 90.09(1)(a) (a) Except as provided under par. (b), no person may sell any commodity in a package containing a net quantity of that commodity which is less than the net quantity declared on the package label.

ATCP 90.09(1)(b) (b) A shortage in an individual package does not violate par. (a) if both of the following apply:

ATCP 90.09(1)(b)1. 1. The shortage is a result of unavoidable variations in quantity that occur despite good packaging and distribution practices.

ATCP 90.09(1)(b)2. 2. The shortage is not an unreasonable shortage.

ATCP 90.09(1)(c) (c) If a shortage is found in a package that is part of an enforcement sample that violates sub. (3) (a), it is rebuttably presumed that the shortage in that individual package does not qualify for exemption under par. (b).

ATCP 90.09(2) (2) Enforcement sample and inspection lot.

ATCP 90.09(2)(a) (a) The department or a municipal sealer may determine the net contents of packaged commodities in an inspection lot based on an enforcement sample collected from that inspection lot.

Unless otherwise specified by NIST Handbook 133, the inspection lot shall be determined according to par. (b).

ATCP 90.09(2)(b) (b) The department or municipal sealer shall determine the scope of an inspection lot before collecting an enforcement sample from that lot under par. (a). An inspection lot may consist of any group of identically labeled packages found at the same manufacturing, wholesale, or retail premises. An inspection lot may include packages from different manufacturing or production lots, and from different wholesale shipments or deliveries.

ATCP 90.09(2)(c) (c) For purposes of par. (b), packages are identically labeled if they are of the same size and if they bear the same declaration of product identity under s. ATCP 90.02, the same declaration of responsibility under s. ATCP 90.03, and the same declaration of net quantity under s. ATCP 90.04, regardless of any other differences in label content or format.

ATCP 90.09 Note Note: A copy of the NIST Handbook 133, Checking the Net Contents of Packaged Goods, is on file with the department and the legislative reference bureau.

ATCP 90.09(3) (3) Enforcement sample tests short; order prohibiting sale of inspection lot.

ATCP 90.09(3)(a) (a) In any enforcement sample under sub. (2) (a), the average net quantity per package may not be less than the net quantity declared on the package label.

ATCP 90.09(3)(b) (b) If an enforcement sample violates par. (a), the department or a municipal sealer may issue an order prohibiting the sale of the entire inspection lot from which that enforcement sample was collected.

ATCP 90.09(4) (4) Unreasonable shortages; order prohibiting sale.

ATCP 90.09(4)(a) (a) If, in any enforcement sample under sub. (2) (a), the number of unreasonable shortages in individual packages exceeds the number specified for an enforcement sample of that size in the NIST Handbook 133, the department or a municipal sealer shall issue an order prohibiting the sale of the entire inspection lot from which that enforcement sample is collected.

ATCP 90.09(4)(b) (b) The department or a municipal sealer may prohibit the sale of any individual package having an unreasonable shortage, regardless of whether that package is part of an enforcement sample under sub. (2) (a).
