Sec. 317.12  Relabeling products; requirements.



    When it is claimed by an official establishment that any of its 

products which bore labels bearing official marks has been transported 

to a location other than an official establishment, and it is desired to 

relabel the product because the labels have become mutilated or 

otherwise damaged, a request for relabeling the product shall be sent to 

the Administrator, accompanied with a statement of the reasons therefor. 

Labeling material intended for relabeling inspected and passed product 

shall not be transported from an official establishment until permission 

has been received from the Administrator. The relabeling of inspected 

and passed product with labels bearing any official marks shall be done 

under the supervision of a Program inspector. The official establishment 

shall reimburse the Program, in accordance with the regulations of the 

Department, for any cost involved in supervising the relabeling of such 

product.
