198.10 Rules.
1. The secretary may adopt rules for commercial feeds and pet foods as specifically authorized in this chapter and other reasonable rules necessary in order to carry out the purpose and intent of this chapter or to secure the efficient enforcement of this chapter.
2. The secretary may adopt rules to do all of the following:
a. Regulate the movement of cottonseed into this state or within this state, even if the cottonseed would otherwise be exempt as whole seed under section 198.3. The secretary may adopt rules prescribing standards for cottonseed consistent with regulations prescribing the quality and uses of cottonseed as promulgated by the United States food and drug administration.
b. Regulating the advertisement of commercial feed, including but not limited to labeling commercial feed as specifically provided in this chapter.
3. In the interest of uniformity the secretary shall adopt any rule based on regulations promulgated under the authority of the federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, 21 U.S.C. §301 et seq., provided the secretary has the authority under this chapter to adopt the rule. However, the secretary is not required to adopt such a rule if the secretary determines that the rule would be inconsistent with this chapter or not appropriate to conditions which exist in this state.
4. Before the issuance, amendment, or repeal of a rule authorized by this chapter, the secretary shall publish the proposed rule, amendment, or notice to repeal an existing rule in a manner reasonably calculated to give interested parties, including all current licensees, adequate notice, and shall afford all interested persons an opportunity to be heard, orally or in writing, within a reasonable period of time. After consideration of all views presented by interested persons, the secretary shall take appropriate action to issue the proposed rule or to amend or repeal an existing rule. However, if the secretary adopts rules based on regulations promulgated under the authority of the federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, any amendment or modification adopted by the United States secretary of health and human services shall be adopted automatically under this chapter without regard to publication of the notice required by this subsection, unless the secretary by order specifically determines that an amendment or modification shall not be adopted.
