Article 13-A
160-B - Establishment of Grades or Standards.

§ 160-b. Establishment  of  grades or standards.  It shall be the duty
  of the state department  of  agriculture  and  markets  to  enforce  the
  provisions  of  this  article  and  the  commissioner of agriculture and
  markets is hereby vested with full power to establish forthwith and from
  time to time specific grades or standards of quality and size or  weight
  to  govern  the sale of eggs to the consumer, and to establish different
  grades or prescribe  different  terms  indicative  of  size  or  weight,
  quality  and manner of preparation of eggs for human consumption for use
  in sales between the producer and wholesaler, between the wholesaler and
  jobber, and between the wholesaler  or  jobber  and  the  retailer.  The
  commissioner  of  agriculture  and  markets shall have full authority to
  make rules and regulations for carrying out and enforcing the provisions
  of this act, provided however, that the grades or standards  of  quality
  established  by  him  shall  not  permit  the sale of any eggs for human
  consumption of poorer quality than permitted  by  the  lowest  grade  or
  standard  for  edible  eggs  established from time to time by the United
  States secretary of agriculture. All rules, regulations and standards of
  quality and size or weight  established  under  the  authority  of  this
  statute  shall  have  the  force  of law and shall be filed and open for
  public inspection in the office of the state department  of  agriculture
  and markets.
