and Division 6.2 (infectious substance) material.

    (a) A hazardous material bearing a POISON, POISON INHALATION HAZARD, 
or INFECTIOUS SUBSTANCE label may not be carried in the same compartment 
of an aircraft with material which is marked as or known to be a 
foodstuff, feed, or any other edible material intended for consumption 
by humans or animals unless either the Division 6.1 (poisonous) material 
or material in Division 6.2 (infectious substance) and the foodstuff, 
feed, or other edible material are loaded in separate unit load devices 
which, when stowed on the aircraft, are not adjacent to each other, or 
the Division 6.1 (poisonous) material or material in Division 6.2 
(infectious substance) are loaded in one closed unit load device and the 
foodstuff, feed or other material is loaded in another closed unit load 
device.
    (b) No person may operate an aircraft that has been used to 
transport any package bearing a POISON or POISON INHALATION HAZARD label 
unless, upon removal of such package, the area

in the aircraft in which it was carried is visually inspected for 
evidence of leakage, spillage, or other contamination. All contamination 
discovered must be either isolated or removed from the aircraft. The 
operation of an aircraft contaminated with such Division 6.1 (poisonous) 
materials is considered to be the carriage of poisonous materials under 
paragraph (a) of this section.
