(a) If the department has reason to believe that a pesticide is in violation of any provision of this chapter, the department may issue and enforce a written or printed order to stop the use or distribution of the pesticide or requiring the pesticide to be removed and secured from further distribution. The department shall present the order to the owner or custodian of the pesticide. The person who receives the order may not sell, distribute, or use the pesticide until the department determines that the pesticide:
(1) is in compliance with this chapter; or
(2) does not present a hazard to the public health, safety, or welfare.
(b) This section does not limit the right of the department to proceed as authorized by another section of this chapter.
