(2) The thing may be moved to another place for examination for not longer than 72 hours.

(5) If a thing is moved to another place under this section, the conservation officer must, if practicable— (a) tell the occupier of the premises the address of the place where, and time when, the examination or processing will be carried out; and (b) allow the occupier or the occupier’s representative to be present during the examination or processing. (6) The provisions of this part relating to the issue of search warrants apply, with any necessary changes, to the giving of an extension under this section.
