(4) Producer class qualifications shall ensure that the largest number of producers constitute the small producer class, and that the smallest number of producers constitute the large producer class.
(5) The board shall review the OFRI Voter Registration List on an annual basis to identify any necessary changes to meet the criteria described above.
