1. In addition to procedures provided for in subsections 3 and 4, the Director may amend or terminate any stabilization and marketing plan, after notice and public hearing as prescribed in NRS 584.550, 584.555 and 584.565, if it finds that the plan is no longer in conformity with the standards prescribed in, or will not tend to effectuate the purposes of, NRS 584.325 to 584.670, inclusive.

2. The hearing may be held upon the motion of the Director and must be held if a proper petition is filed. The Director shall hold the hearing in the marketing area to which the plan applies.

3. If producers wish to abandon an existing stabilization and marketing plan and establish a Federal Milk Marketing Order or other similar type of milk marketing order, the Director may continue a marketing and stabilization plan in effect for any given area, insofar as wholesale and retail provisions are concerned, whenever it appears that 55 percent of the distributors in any given area, whose major interest in the fluid milk and fluid cream business consists of at least 55 percent of the fluid milk and fluid cream distributed within the area by volume, desire that the wholesale and retail provisions, including price regulations, be continued.

4. Areas which are nonproducing may terminate a stabilization and marketing plan which affects wholesale and retail prices if 55 percent of the licensed distributors delivering 55 percent of the products to that area wish to terminate the plan after notice and public hearing as prescribed in NRS 584.550, 584.555 and 584.565.
