(1) the styles and sizes of type to be used with respect to material required to be incorporated in labeling to avoid false or misleading labeling in marking or otherwise labeling the articles or poultry subject to this chapter;

(2) definitions and standards of identity or composition for articles subject to this chapter and standards of fill of container for the articles not inconsistent with standards established under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, or under the Federal Poultry Products Inspection Act, and there must be consultation between the director and the Secretary of Agriculture of the United States prior to the issuance of these standards to avoid inconsistency between such standards and the federal standards.

(C) No article subject to this chapter may be sold or offered for sale by a person in intrastate commerce, under a name or other marking or labeling which is false or misleading or in a container of a misleading form or size, but established trade names and other marking and labeling and containers which are not false or misleading and which are approved by the director are permitted.

(D) If the director has reason to believe that the marking or labeling or the size or form of a container in use or proposed for use with respect to the article subject to this chapter is false or misleading in any particular, he may direct that the use be withheld unless the marking, labeling, or container is modified in a manner as he may prescribe so that it will not be false or misleading. If the person using or proposing to use the marking, labeling, or container does not accept the determination of the director, the person may request a hearing, but the use of the marking, labeling, or container, if the director so directs, must be withheld pending hearing and final determination by the director. A determination by the director is conclusive unless, within thirty days after receipt of notice of the final determination, the person adversely affected appeals to the Administrative Law Court as provided in Sections 1-23-380(B) and 1-23-600(D).
