§1057.2. Regulations declaring aerosol products; variations and exemptions; judicial review of determinations
A. Whenever in the judgment of the secretary such action will promote the objectives of this Chapter by avoiding or resolving uncertainty as to its application, the secretary may by regulation declare such aerosol product to be a hazardous aerosol, for the purposes of this Chapter.
B. If the secretary finds that the requirements of R.S. 40:1057.1(11) or R.S. 40:1057.3(a) are not adequate for the protection of the public health and safety in view of the special hazard presented by any particular hazardous aerosol, he may by regulation establish such reasonable variations or additional label requirements as he finds necessary for the protection of the public health and safety, and any such hazardous aerosol product intended or packaged in a form suitable for use in the household or by children, which fails to bear a label in accordance with such regulations, shall be deemed to be a misbranded hazardous aerosol.
C. If the secretary finds that, because of the size of the package involved or because of the minor hazard presented by the substance contained therein or for other good and sufficient reasons, full compliance with the labeling requirements otherwise applicable under this Part is impracticable or is not necessary for the adequate protection of the public health and safety, the secretary shall promulgate regulations exempting such substance from these requirements to the extent he determines to be consistent with adequate protection of the public health and safety.
D. If the secretary finds that the hazard of an article subject to this Chapter is such that labeling adequate to protect the public health and safety cannot be devised or that the article presents an imminent danger to the public health and safety, the secretary may declare such article to be a banned hazardous aerosol and require its removal from commerce.
