Every five years, commencing with the 2011-2012 marketing season, the secretary shall hold a hearing to determine whether the operation of this chapter should be continued. If the secretary finds, after the hearing, that a substantial question exists among eligible persons regarding whether the operation of this chapter should be continued, the secretary shall submit the chapter to a reapproval referendum. If a reapproval referendum is required, the operation of this chapter shall continue in effect if the secretary finds that a majority of the eligible producers voting in the referendum voted in favor of continuing this chapter and a majority of the eligible vintners voting in the referendum voted in favor of continuing this chapter. In finding whether the commission is continued pursuant to this article, the vote of any nonprofit agricultural cooperative marketing association that is authorized by its member to so vote, shall be considered to be the approval or rejection by the individual members thereof, or the individual stockholders therein. No bond or security shall be required for any referendum required by this chapter however, this shall not apply to advance deposit of funds required by the department to cover the actual cost of a referendum.
