As used in the Act, State means ``any State of the United States or
the District of Columbia or any Territory or possession of the United
States'' (Act, section 3(c)). The application of this definition in
determining questions of coverage under the Act's definition of
``commerce'' and ``produced'' (see Secs. 779.12, 779.13) is discussed in
the interpretative bulletin on general coverage, part 776 of this
chapter. This definition is also important in determining whether goods
``for resale'' purchased or received by an enterprise move or have moved
across State lines within the meaning of former section 3(s)(1) of the
Act (prior to the 1966 amendments) and whether sales of goods or
services are ``made within the State'' within the meaning of the retail
or service establishment exemption in section 13(a)(2), as discussed in
subpart D of this part.
