The Authority may enter into agreements with one or more State racing commissions to implement within their respective jurisdictions any of the components of the Thoroughbred horseracing anti-doping program established by the Authority if the Authority determines, in its sole discretion, that a particular State racing commission will be able to implement a component of the Thoroughbred horseracing anti-doping program in accordance with the standards and requirements established by the Authority.
Any such agreement shall remain in effect as long as the Authority, in its sole discretion, determines the applicable racing commission to be implementing the components of the medication regulation program covered by the agreement in compliance with the standards and requirements established by the Authority. Where conduct by any person subject to the Thoroughbred horseracing anti-doping program may involve both an anti-doping rule violation and violation of State or Federal law, this Act imposes a duty to cooperate and share information between the Authority and State and Federal law enforcement authorities.
