Sec. 70.2  Measures in the event of inadequate local control.

    Whenever the Director of the Centers for Disease Control and 
Prevention determines that the measures taken by health authorities of 
any State or possession (including political subdivisions thereof) are 
insufficient to prevent the spread of any of the communicable diseases 
from such State or possession to any other State or possession, he/she 
may take such measures to prevent such spread of the diseases as he/she 
deems reasonably necessary, including inspection, fumigation, 
disinfection, sanitation, pest extermination, and destruction of animals 
or articles believed to be sources of infection.
