any slaughtering establishment is found to be unsanitary or conducting its slaughtering
operations in an unsanitary or unwholesome manner so as to endanger the public health, or
slaughtering animals unfit for human consumption, the associate director may suspend or
revoke the license to slaughter as provided in section 3-1206. This section shall not in
any way alter the powers of the department of health services in connection with
