The director, by regulations, shall do all of the following: (a) Adopt germination standards for vegetable seed. (b) Adopt tolerances to be applied in all enforcement procedure required by this chapter. (c) Prescribe methods of procedure in the examination of lots of any agricultural or vegetable seed, and in securing samples of such lots.

Every standard or tolerance which is adopted pursuant to this chapter shall be as nearly as practicable to that which is established under the Federal Seed Act (7 U.S.C., Sec. 1551, et seq.).
