of Distressed Merchandise

Merchandise distressed within

sewer backup, wreck or other cause as expeditiously as possible so as not to

health. All distressed and salvageable merchandise of a perishable nature

shall, prior to reconditioning, be transported only in vehicles provided with

adequate refrigeration. No interstate movement of distressed or salvageable

merchandise shall be made without the prior approval of the Department and the

responsible State agency in the State to receive the merchandise.
