In a recent meeting with industry representatives, the USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service announced it will soon provide more information to establishments regarding the agency’s sampling programs.
In addition to providing individual sample results via email and PHIS reports, the agency will soon send Quarterly Establishment Information Letters that will include more information regarding the results of the agency’s sampling programs for pathogens and residues for the past year. These automatically generated letters will be sent every quarter to the establishment in a similar fashion to how individual results are now disseminated.
