A commercial feed is adulterated: (a) If it bears or contains any poisonous or deleterious substance which may render it injurious to health; but in case the substance is not an added substance, the commercial feed shall not be considered adulterated if the quantity of the substance in such commercial feed does not ordinarily render it injurious to health. (b) If it bears or contains any poisonous, deleterious or non-nutritive ingredient that has been added in sufficient amount to render it unsafe within the meaning of Section 406 of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, other than one which is a pesticide chemical in or on a raw agricultural commodity or a food additive. (c) If it is, bears or contains any food additive which is unsafe within the meaning of Section 409 of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. (d) If it is a raw agricultural commodity and it bears or contains a pesticide chemical which is unsafe within the meaning of Section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, provided, that where a pesticide chemical has been used in or on a raw agricultural commodity in conformity with an exemption granted or a tolerance prescribed under Section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and the raw agricultural commodity has been subjected to processing, such as, canning, cooking, freezing, dehydrating or milling, the residue of the pesticide chemical remaining in or on the processed feed shall not be deemed unsafe if such residue in or on the raw agricultural commodity has been removed to the extent possible by good manufacturing practices as adopted and the concentration of the residue in the processed feed is not greater than the tolerance prescribed for the raw agricultural commodity, unless the feeding of the processed feed will result or is likely to result in a pesticide residue in the edible product of the animal, which is unsafe within the meaning of Section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. (e) If it is, bears or contains any color additive which is unsafe within the meaning of Section 706 of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. (f) If it contains a drug and the methods used in, or the facilities or controls used for, its manufacture, processing, or packaging do not conform to current good manufacturing practice regulations promulgated by the Director to assure that the drug meets the requirements of this Act as to safety and has the identity and strength and meets the quality and purity characteristics which it purports or is represented to possess. In promulgating these regulations, the Director shall adopt the current good manufacturing practice regulations for Type A medicated articles and Type B and Type C medicated feeds established under authority of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, unless he determines that they are not appropriate to the conditions which exist in this State. (g) If any valuable constituent has been in whole or in part omitted or abstracted therefrom or any less valuable substance substituted therefor. (h) If its composition or quality falls below or differs from that which it is purported or is represented to possess by its labeling. (i) If it contains weed seeds in amounts exceeding the limits established by regulation. (Source: P.A. 87-664.)
