Sets a health-and-safety rulemaking requirement: the Department of Health and Human Services must issue contamination limits for morphine, codeine, and other designated alkaloids in poppy seeds so that seeds above those limits are treated as adulterated and banned from interstate commerce. The law requires HHS to publish a proposed rule within 1 year and a final rule within 2 years.

The measure also clarifies that contaminated poppy seeds receive no special exemption and remain subject to the Controlled Substances Act and related enforcement; HHS may designate additional compounds to be covered under the rule.
