# §71.25. Condition for certification.

- (a) When the Commissioner cannot conclude from the information before him that there is a basis for exempting a color additive from the requirement of batch certification, he will so order by appropriate listing in [part 74](/cfr/21/part74.md) of this chapter. The Commissioner's order shall state in detail the specifications that shall be met by the color additive.
- (b) Each order shall state a period of time after which use of a color additive subject to batch certification but not from a batch certified by procedure prescribed in this section would result in adulteration of the product in which it is used.
