Subpart A General Provisions
Sec. 108.19 Establishment of requirements for exemption from section 404 of
the act.
(a) Whenever the Commissioner finds after investigation that the
distribution in interstate commerce of any class of food may, by reason
of contamination with microorganisms during the manufacture, processing,
or packing thereof in any locality, be injurious to health, and that
such injurious nature cannot be adequately determined after such
articles have entered interstate commerce, he shall promulgate
regulations in Subpart B of this part establishing requirements and
conditions governing the manufacture, processing, or packing of the food
necessary to protect the public health. Such regulations may be proposed
by the Commissioner on his own initiative or in response to a petition
from any interested person pursuant to part 10 of this chapter.
(b) A manufacturer, processor, or packer of a food for which a
regulation has been promulgated in subpart B of this part shall be
exempt from the requirement for a permit only if he meets all of the
mandatory requirements and conditions established in that regulation.
