Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 14, July 15, 2024
(a) Variations from the declared net weight, measure or count shall be permitted when caused by unavoidable deviations in weighing, measuring, or counting the contents of individual packages that occur in good packaging practice, but such variations shall not be permitted to such extent that the average of the quantities in the packages of a particular commodity, or a lot of the commodity that is kept, offered, or exposed for sale, or sold, is below the quantity stated, and no unreasonable shortage in any package shall be permitted, even though overages in other practices in the same shipment, delivery, or lot compensate for such shortages. Variations above the declared quantity shall not be unreasonably large.
(b) Variations from the declared weight or measure shall be permitted when caused by ordinary and customary exposure to conditions that normally occur in good distribution practice and that unavoidably result in change of weight or measure, but only after the commodity is introduced into intrastate or interstate commerce; provided that the phrase "introduced into intrastate or interstate commerce" as used in this subsection shall be construed to define the time and the place at which the first sale and delivery of a package is made within the State, or within any other state, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, or any territory or possession of the United States, but shall not include exports to foreign countries, the delivery being either:
1. Directly to the purchaser or to his agent; or
2. To a common carrier for shipments to the purchaser, and this paragraph shall be construed as requiring that, so long as a shipment, delivery, or lot of packages of a particular commodity remains in the possession or under the control of the packager or the person who introduces the package into intrastate or interstate commerce, exposure variations shall not be permitted.
