Grain settlements/disposition of grain:  There will be a 10-day grace period from first day of unload, unless there is a contract to apply to. If no disposition is given during the grace period, the grain will go to storage, subject to additional dry/shrink and storage charges.

Contracted grain:  Grain delivered will be applied to oldest contract first.  No early delivery of contracted grain is allowed without prior approval.  If grain is delivered early, payment will be made at the originally contracted time.

Treated grain:  Any load that has treated grain either in the probed sample or found at the dump pit will be rejected. 

Plugged loads:  Loads with obvious grade differences that are observed at unloading are subject to re-inspection and possible rejection.
