NCBA participates in public meeting on sampling procedures

On Oct. 14 and 15 NCBA will participate in the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) public hearing on sampling procedures.

The primary purpose of the meeting is to deal with sampling issues associated with raw beef, particularly for E. coli O157:H7 as a first step. FSIS will also expand this meeting format to address other pathogens and species/products inthe future.

The Agency will also use this public meeting to gather input from all stakeholders on other sampling issues that need to be addressed.
