(2) The goods shall be retained in the custody of the Board at the Board's designated storage or godown or warehouse stations at the risk and expense of the owners of the goods until such lien is discharged and godown or storage rent shall be payable by the party entitled to such goods for the time during which they may be so retained.
(3) Upon the production, before any officer appointed by the Board in that behalf, of a document purporting to be a receipt for, or release from, the amount of such lien, executed by the person by whom or on whose behalf such notice has been given, the Board may permit such goods to be removed without regard to such lien, provided that the Board shall have used reasonable care in respect to the authenticity of such document.
