(a) If the proposed
				  source is from an existing approved public water supply system, the provisions
				  of Paragraphs (b), (c), and (d) of this Rule shall not apply.

				  (d) of this Rule shall apply.
(3)
				  If the investigation reveals factors set forth in this Rule which warrant
				  further investigation, the Department of Environmental Quality may require, as
				  a condition for continued investigation, evaluation of the site or specific
				  factors influencing the site by a geologist or engineer licensed to practice in
				  North Carolina. If the Department of Environmental Quality determines that the
				  investigation and report illustrate that the questionable factors do not hinder
				  the suitability of the site to produce a safe water source, the provisions of
				  Paragraph (d) of this Rule shall apply.

(a) No flavor
				designation shall be used on a pet food label unless the designated flavor is
				detectable by a recognized test method, or is one the presence of which
				provides a characteristic distinguishable by the pet. Any flavor designation on
				a pet food label must either conform to the name of its source as shown in the
				ingredient statement or the ingredient statement shall show the source of the
				flavor. Distributors of pet food employing such flavor designation or claims on
				the labels of the product distributed by them shall, upon request, supply
				verification of the designated or claimed flavor to the Commissioner of
				Agriculture.
(b) The designation
				"100 percent" or "all" or words of similar connotation shall not be used in the
				brand or product name of a pet food if it contains more than one ingredient.
				However, for the purpose of this provision, water sufficient for processing,
				required decharacterizing agents and trace amounts of preservatives and
				condiments shall not be considered ingredients.
(c) The term "meat" and "meat by-products"
				shall be qualified to designate the animal from which the meat and meat

				swine, sheep, and goats. For example, "horsemeat" and "horsemeat
				by-products."

				pet food shall not be derived from one or more ingredients of a mixture to the
				exclusion of other ingredients and shall not be one representing any components
				of a mixture of a pet food product unless all components or ingredients are
				included in the name except as specified by (a), (e), or (f) of this Rule;
				provided, that if any ingredient or combination of ingredients is intended to
				impart a distinctive characteristic to the product which is significant to the
				purchaser, the name of that ingredient or combination of ingredients may be
				used as a part of the name of the pet food if the following occur:
(1) The ingredient or combination of
				ingredients is present in sufficient quantity to impart a distinctive
				characteristic to the product;
(2)
				It does not constitute a representation that the ingredient or combination of
				ingredients is present to the exclusion of other ingredients; and
(3) It is not otherwise false or
				misleading.

(a) The
				sliding scale method of expressing a guaranteed analysis (for example, "protein
				15-18 percent") is prohibited.
(b)
				Pet foods containing five percent or more mineral ingredients, shall include in
				the guaranteed analysis the minimum and maximum percentage of calcium (Ca) and
				salt (NaCl), and the minimum percentages of phosphorus (P) and iodine (I), if
				added. Minerals, except salt (NaCl), when quantitatively guaranteed shall be
				stated in terms of percentage of the element. The label of the pet food which
				is formulated as and represented to be a mineral supplement shall include a
				guarantee of all the minerals contained in the ingredient statement.
(c) The label of the pet food which is
				formulated as and represented to be a vitamin supplement, shall include a
				guarantee of the minimum content of each vitamin declared in the ingredient
				statement. Such vitamin guarantees shall be stated in units or milligrams per
				pound or ppm, as provided herein; vitamin E in USP or International Units;
				vitamin A, other than precursors of vitamin A, in USP Units; vitamin D in USP
				units: all other vitamins as true vitamins, not compounds, except pyridoxine
				hydrochloride, choline chloride, and thiamine; oils and concentrates containing
				vitamin A or vitamin D or both may be additionally labeled to show vitamin
				content in units per gram; and providing that the term "d-pantothenic acid" be
				used in stating the pantothenic acid guarantee.
(d) The vitamin potency of pet food products
				distributed in containers smaller than one pound may be guaranteed in approved
				units per ounce.
(e) If the label
				of a pet food does not represent the pet food to be either a vitamin or a
				mineral supplement but does include a table of comparison of a typical analysis
				of the vitamin, mineral, or nutrient content of the pet food with levels
				recommended by a recognized animal nutrition authority, such comparison may be
				stated in the units of measurement used by recognized authority. The statement
				in a table of comparison of the vitamin, mineral, or nutrient content shall
				constitute a guarantee, but need not be repeated in the guaranteed analysis.
				Such table of comparison may appear on the label separate and apart from the
				guaranteed analysis.

(b) Each ingredient of the pet food shall be
				listed in the ingredient statement, and names of all ingredients in the

(a) Urea and other
				non-protein nitrogen products defined in the Official Publication of the
				Association of American Feed Control Officials are acceptable ingredients only
				in commercial feeds for ruminant animals as a source of equivalent crude
				protein and are not to be used in commercial feeds for other animals and

(b) If the commercial feed
				contains more than 8.75 percent of equivalent crude protein from all forms of
				non-protein nitrogen, added as such, or the equivalent crude protein from all
				forms of non-protein nitrogen, added as such, exceeds one-third of the total
				crude protein, the label shall bear adequate directions for the safe use of
				feeds and a precautionary statement which reads as follows:
"CAUTION: USE AS DIRECTED"
The directions for use and the caution statement shall be in
				  type of such size so placed on the label that they will be read and understood
				  by ordinary persons under customary conditions of purchase and use.
(c) The labeling of all feeds
				containing non-protein nitrogen ingredients, additional to other required feed
				labeling, shall bear the caution statement "Feed Only To Ruminants"; provided
				that, on labels such as those for medicated feeds which bear adequate feeding
				directions and/or warning statements, the presence of added non-protein
				nitrogen shall not require a duplication of the feeding directions or the
				precautionary statements as long as those statements include sufficient
				information to ensure the safe and effective use of this product due to the
				presence of non-protein nitrogen.
