REVISOR'S NOTE: Subsection (a) of this section is new
language derived without substantive change from the
introductory clause of the first sentence of former
Art. 43, § 401, which section was the original source
law from which former HE § 9-221(a). was derived. This
subsection is revised to clarify that a source of ice
supply that was harvested or manufactured for sale or
sold to the public on or before April 16, 1914 is
exempt from the provisions of this section.
