The Auditor is the Sealer of Weights and Measures for the entire County as an agent of the Ohio Department of Agriculture, thus protecting the general public and businesses from the possible loss which may occur from faulty measuring devices, such as scales and pumps. The Auditor is charged with the responsibility of insuring that all State laws relating to weights and measures are strictly enforced.

Sealers perform "spot-checks" on pre-packaged items to test the weight of the contents. County sealers are certified by the Ohio Department of Agriculture.

Content testing such as octane rating or other substances in gasoline will be performed in the near future.

If you have a Weights and Measures concern, please Direct inquiries to Weights and Measures Inspector David Finck at (740)652-7027 or E-mail him at dfinck@co.fairfield.oh.us .
