The authority conferred on the Secretary by section 642, 643, or

engaged in the specified kinds of business in or for commerce may
be exercised with respect to persons, firms, or corporations
engaged, in any State or organized Territory, in such kinds of

determines, after consultation with an appropriate advisory
committee provided for in section 661 of this title, that the State
or territory does not have at least equal authority under its laws
or such authority is not exercised in a manner to effectuate the
purposes of this chapter including the State providing for the
Secretary or his representative being afforded access to such
places of business and the facilities, inventories, and records
thereof, and the taking of reasonable samples, where he determines
necessary in carrying out his responsibilities under this chapter;
and in such case the provisions of section 642, 643, or 644 of this
