or dosage form animal health products are manufactured, processed, packed, or held
for distribution and to stop and enter any vehicle being used to transport or hold
feeds;
(2) to inspect factories, warehouses, establishments, vehicles, equipment, finished and

Secretary shall furnish to the registrant a portion of the sample concerned. (Added 1985, No. 126 (Adj. Sess.), § 2; amended 2003, No. 42, § 2, eff. May 27, 2003; 2021, No. 41, § 9; 2021, No. 105 (Adj. Sess.), § 57, eff. July 1, 2022.)
