The
Division of Weights and Measures is mandated by
state law to protect the interests of the buyer and
seller to ensure honesty and integrity of everyday business
transactions. This protection is accomplished through
the enforcement of the laws of the State of California
and various federal statutes.
Most
transactions involving the exchange of goods, property,
and service involve some form of weighing and measuring.
Protection is provided by the continuous, systematic
inspection and testing for accuracy of weighing and
measuring devices used in trade in Ventura County, as
well as the checking of packaged commodities for quantity
and labeling. |
