A better-funded Food and Drug Administration (FDA) with many new field investigators has embarked on a massive new initiative to inspect food plants, taking large numbers of environmental samples and follow-up food samples. IDFA's revised FDA Inspection Manual & Recall Guide has been designed to provide member companies with the guidance and information they need to help prepare for facility inspections and to develop effective plans for recalls and crisis management. This is a "must read" in today's sometimes confrontational regulatory atmosphere.

Are your allergen labels up to date and in compliance? How do you guard against allergen cross-contact in your plants? IDFA's newly revised Allergens Guidelines and Best Industry Practices for the dairy industry answers these questions and many more related to allergen labeling and in-plant management. It is now available to members for $80 and to non-members for $100.
A practical guide to managing allergens, the manual discusses how to set up an allergen-awareness program in plants and includes examples of best practices that will reduce the possibility of cross-contact. One updated section takes an in-depth look at the federal allergen labeling requirements that were mandated by the 2004 Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act and went into full effect in 2006. Another new section reviews the voluntary use of food allergy icons that can provide easily recognizable symbols in manufacturing plants and warehouses.
This manual addresses these regulations: Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, Toxic Substances Control Act, and Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act.
An outbreak of Foot-and-Mouth Disease (FMD) in U.S. cattle could wreak havoc on the milk supply and create distribution and public relations headaches for dairy companies within just a few days. To help companies plan ahead, IDFA has carefully prepared a new publication to serve as an off-the-shelf crisis manual, with specific instructions on how dairy corporate headquarters, plant operations, and milk haulers will be forced by state and federal government regulations to respond if FMD hits. The manual also provides guidance on what dairy companies should be doing today to soften the blow of an outbreak and includes a crisis communications section, which may be helpful in any type of plant emergency.
Volume discounts are available on five or more FMD manuals in one order; contact the IDFA Educational Services department for more details at publications@idfa.org, (202) 737-4332.
A better-funded Food and Drug Administration (FDA) with many new field investigators has embarked on a massive new initiative to inspect food plants, taking large numbers of environmental samples and follow-up product samples. FDA investigators will assert they can take cameras and video equipment into dairy plants, as well as request access to processing and other records that they are not legally entitled to receive during most routine inspections.
Do you and your plant staff know the regulatory background being used by FDA investigators, including limits on their authority, as well as legal protections afforded the dairy processing industry? If not, this webinar will prepare you for your next FDA inspection. Learn the regulatory basis for FDA's authority and practical tools for dealing with FDA investigators in today's sometimes confrontational atmosphere from Martin Hahn, partner, Hogan Lovells US LLP, a leading expert in advising food plants on how to survive FDA investigations.

Under the new Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), inspections by the Food and Drug Administration could be considerably different from inspections that dairy companies experienced in the past. Although President Obama signed the landmark legislation into law 18 months ago, FDA is continuing to develop more than 50 new rules and guidance documents that will be required to implement all aspects of the act.
Questions remain, however, regarding whether dairy plants will be expected to comply with some of FSMA’s provisions now, even without proposed or final rules in some areas. This webinar will help member dairy companies understand the rule changes that have already taken place, the ones that will occur in the near future and others that will occur this summer.
The presenter is food safety expert Joseph A. Levitt, a partner in the Washington, D.C., office of Hogan Lovells US LLP. Before joining the firm in 2004, Levitt worked at FDA for 25 years, where he served as director of FDA’s Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition from 1998 through 2003. He currently serves as outside regulatory counsel to IDFA.
