Minnesota Administrative Rules

1540.4140 "MINNESOTA RETAINED" TAG.

When any chemical, cereal, spice, or other substance is presented for use in an official establishment, it shall be examined by a department employee, and if found to be unfit or otherwise unacceptable for the use intended, or if final decision regarding acceptance is deferred pending laboratory or other examination, the employee shall attach a "Minnesota retained" tag to the substance or container thereof. The substance so tagged shall be kept separate from other substances as the inspector may require, shall not be used until the tag is removed, and such removal shall be only by a department employee after finding that the substance can be accepted, or, in the case of an unacceptable substance, when it is removed from the establishment.
