If you notice violations please send the details to nutrition@levitas.com. It will be the county environmental health department that has the authority to fine the specific establishment.

State or local agency? I see that the verbage says local governments can impose fines on such establishments; so why aren't they all over this in order to bring in increased "revenue" while at the same time ensuring consumers are informed of how crappy their food really is? Certainly I prefer informing a local government agency so that the fines will contribute to the local economy and not disappear at the state level... Who do we report violators of this new law too?
