Responsibilities associated with keg registration seal.
Oxford Code of Ordinances § 14-91
in effectSec. 14-91. - Responsibilities associated with keg registration seal.
(a) The keg registration seal affixed to the keg may serve as the purchaser's receipt. Upon return of a properly registered keg from a purchaser, the retail licensee shall remove and obliterate the keg registration seal from the keg and note such action on the possessor's permit to be retained by the retail licensee on the licensed premises. Kegs made of disposable packaging do not have to be returned to the retail licensee. The retailer shall indicate on the possessor's permit that the keg was not returnable due to its disposable packaging.
(b) For the purpose of tracing the kegs and purchaser responsibility, it shall be the responsibility of the seller to affix the properly completed and signed keg registration seal to the keg prior to the keg leaving control of the seller.
(c) Except in accordance with this section, no persons shall remove, alter, deface, or obliterate the registration seal affixed the keg. Throwing away empty kegs made of disposable packaging shall not constitute obliterate of the registration seal. If any nonlicensee is in possession of a keg containing beer or light wine commencing 30 days from the effective date from which this section is derived, and which keg does not bear the registration seal, or upon which keg the registration seal has been altered, defaced or obliterated, the container and its contents shall be deemed contraband and subject to seizure and forfeiture, and further penalty for violation of this article as provided.
