In this event, the permittee shall notify the department in writing within 10 (ten) days of the transaction. In addition, the permittee shall be responsible for informing the new owner of, or party assuming legal control over that water body, that triploid grass carp have been stocked therein. For the remaining term of the existing permit, said permit shall be transferred to the new owner of, or party assuming legal control over said water body, provided that said party agrees in writing to comply with the terms and conditions specified in this section. After expiration of the existing permit, the party assuming permittee status shall be required to renew the grass carp permit pursuant to subsection 238.6(e)(3)(B).
(2) Grass carp programs approved by the department on or before June 1, 1995 shall be exempt from the provisions of this section.
