Missouri meat locker resumes operations after shutdown

Operations have resumed at a meat locker in central Missouri after several problems were fixed.

The Missouri Department of Agriculture's Meat and Poultry Inspection Program announced Saturday the Russellville Locker requested a re-inspection Friday morning. The department said the business was able to show it had addressed issues found Thursday, including unsanitary conditions and pest control issues.

Russellville Locker is a custom processing facility, which processes and packages meat for livestock owners only for their own consumption.
