IDALS/FDA AFRPS Maintenance with PC Regulatory Activities

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Project Summary Our focus will be on two separate, but related goals. The first goal will be to maintain our compliance with the Animal Feed Regulatory Program Standards (AFRPS) and to improve our processes under the AFRPS standards by developing policies and procedures, strengthening collaborations, and conducting program self-assessment to maintain and improve conformance with the standards. The second goal will be to implement the PCAF regulations at the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship. This will require reviewing (and possibly revising) our current code and laws to make them conform to the PCAF regulation, training inspectors on the requirements (and developing a training program so that future inspectors will continue to be adequately trained), and developing and conducting an Out Reach program to help producers to understand their responsibilities under the new regulation. Meeting these combined goals will help the Commercial Feed and Fertilizer Bureau to protect public health by having policies and procedures in place resulting in a high quality animal feeds regulatory program.
