Nothing in this chapter shall be interpreted to conflict with present or future state statutes in the same subject matter; conflicting provisions of this chapter shall be abrogated to, but only to, the extent of the conflict. Moreover, the provisions of this chapter shall be construed, if possible, to be consistent with and in addition to relevant state regulations and statutes. If any part of this chapter is found to be invalid or unconstitutional by any court of competent jurisdiction, such portion shall be deemed a separate, distinct and independent provision. Such holding shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions thereof, and the remainder of the chapter shall remain in force.
