Title 21 › Chapter CHAPTER 10— - POULTRY AND POULTRY PRODUCTS INSPECTION › § 467e
States, territories, and the District of Columbia cannot make rules for official establishments that add to or conflict with the federal rules about buildings, equipment, or operations. They also cannot set extra or different rules on marking, labeling, packaging, ingredients, or on storage and handling if the Secretary says those rules would unduly block poultry moving in commerce. They may set recordkeeping and similar rules under paragraph (b) of section 460 if those rules match the federal law. States, territories, and D.C. can join with the federal government to stop adulterated or misbranded food from being sold for people to eat once it is outside an inspected establishment, or for imported food after it enters the United States. They may also make other requirements that agree with the federal rules for matters covered by this chapter.
