| 01-19596 | Residue Testing Procedures | Notice | The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is changing the action it will take when livestock or poultry are presented for slaughter at official establishments that come from producers and others who have previously marketed such animals with violative levels of drug, pesticide, or other chemical residues ("chemical residues"). FSIS will no longer test livestock and poultry carcasses at official establishments for chemical residues until a specific number of the carcasses consecutively test negative for violative chemical residues (i.e., FSIS "5/15" policy). Instead, FSIS will post on its website the names and addresses of the sellers of livestock and poultry who the Food and Drug Administration has determined are responsible for the repeated sale of livestock or poultry that contain violative levels of chemical residues. FSIS believes that this action will help better ensure that meat and poultry products distributed in commerce are not adulterated with violative residues. FSIS is taking this action partly in response to a request from certain industry groups. | 2001-08-06 | 2001 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/08/06/01-19596/residue-testing-procedures | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-08-06/pdf/01-19596.pdf | Agriculture Department; Food Safety and Inspection Service | 12,201 | The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is changing the action it will take when livestock or poultry are presented for slaughter at official establishments that come from producers and others who have previously marketed such animals with... |
