  • Any  police  officer  shall  have  authority to execute any warrant to
      search for and seize any  sewage  system  cleaners  or  additives  sold,
      distributed  or  offered  or  exposed  for  sale in violation of article
      thirty-nine.  Such  cleaners  or  additives  shall   be   held   pending
      proceedings  in any court of competent jurisdiction, and upon conviction
      or upon the entry of a judgment restraining the  sale,  distribution  or
      offer  or  exposure for sale of said cleaners or additives on the ground
      that said items were sold, distributed or exposed or offered for sale in
      violation of article thirty-nine, the seized items  shall  be  forfeited
      and,   upon   forfeiture,   destroyed   under  the  supervision  of  the
      commissioner. Where property has been seized pursuant to the  provisions
      of  this  article  from  a person who was not convicted of an offense or
      subject to a restraining  order,  a  notice  of  the  institution  of  a
      forfeiture  proceeding  shall  be  served on that person, and the person
      shall be allowed to appear and shall be given an opportunity to be heard
      at the forfeiture proceeding.
