It shall be unlawful to store or sell fireworks, designed or intended to be used for agricultural purposes as pest-control bombs in connection with the raising of crops, without first obtaining from the Commissioner of Labor a permit to store or sell such fireworks.
The Commissioner of Labor is authorized to issue such permits subject to rules and regulations to be prescribed by him and upon the payment of the required fees.
The rules and regulations shall be such as will reasonably protect the safety of the public by limiting the quantities to be stored in any one place and by providing safeguards against the danger of explosion and damage thereby to persons and property.
In prescribing the rules and regulations, the commissioner shall consult and co-operate with the State Department of Agriculture.
The fee for issuing any such permit shall be fixed by the commissioner according to a scale of quantities and locations prescribed by him, but in no case shall such fee exceed $100.00.
