Rule 1301:3-3-01 | Bedding lab fees.
In accordance with division (C) of section 3713.04 of the Revised Code, the fees for the following tests and laboratory analyses performed by the bedding laboratory of the division of industrial compliance of the Ohio department of commerce shall be as follows:
(A) Percentage charge: For the calculation by weight of component percentages, in which each component is separated and weighed to the gram on certified scales, the fee shall be fifty-five dollars.
(B) Fibers and other natural and man made materials: For the testing and analysis of the percentage of fibers and other natural and man-made materials, the fee shall be fifty-five dollars.
(C) Macroscopic evaluation: For the visual inspection to obtain information on the distinctive characteristics of the specimen and to determine if additional tests are required, the fee shall be fifty-five dollars.
(D) Microscopic analysis: For the examination under magnification, including the mounting of a specimen on a slide, to note the longitudinal and cross-sectional appearance and comparison to known fibers, the fee shall be fifty-five dollars for each fiber type.
(E) Man-made fiber identification: For the examination under high magnification of man-made fibers, including the mounting of a specimen on a slide, the fee shall be sixty dollars. The fee for man made fiber identification shall not include chemical analyses.
(F) Fiber composition: For the qualitative and quantitative identification of fiber type which shall be obtained by subjecting a specimen to a series of numerical sequenced chemical solubility tests, the fee shall be ninety dollars for each fiber type.
(G) Chemical and microscopial analysis: For the analysis of a specimen under the microscope, at low and high magnification, and, if necessary, by means of a chemical solubility test, to determine the composition of a sample, the fee shall be one hundred ten dollars per fiber.
(H) Feather and fiber separation: For the quantitative chemical and/or mechanical analysis to determine the percentage of feathers and fiber in an identified blend, the fee shall be one hundred ten dollars.
(I) Down and fiber separation: For the quantitative chemical and/or mechanical analysis to determine the percentage of down and fiber in an identified blend, the fee shall be one hundred ten dollars.
(J) Content without species identification: For the quantitative analysis done by hand separation using forceps to determine the percentage of feathers and own in a sample, the fee shall be one hundred fifty dollars.
(K) Content and species: For the qualitative and quantitative analysis done by hand separation using forceps and a microscope, and the mounting of feathers and plumage specimens for comparison to reference standards, the fee shall be two hundred dollars.
