Advancing Minnesota' Efforts Towards a Nationally Integrated Food Safety System

项目摘要 这项合作协议旨在支持制造食品监管计划 标准(MFRPS)、快速反应小组(RRT)和食品保护特别工作组(FPTF) 计划，以及支持这些计划的特殊项目。这样做的预期结果是 FOA将通过协助国家推进国家一体化食品安全体系(IFSS)的努力 实现和维护符合MFRPS的计划，建立和/或支持 食品保护专责小组，通过统一和创新促进长期改进和创新 协调联邦/州/地方人类和动物性食品应对努力，并支持创新 以及为特殊项目使用MFRPS或RRT框架的IFSS中的整合。 明尼苏达州农业部食品和饲料安全局(FFSD) 向大约10,000家食品设施发放许可证，并对其进行检查，其中包括2,000种人造食品 在明尼苏达州的设施。MDA-FFSD有一个专门的人造食品计划 负责制造食品的许可、合规和检验活动。这个 人工食品项目有16名工作人员，其中包括一名项目经理，两名食品 1名监督员、1名专职支助人员和12名外地视察员。FFSD还有另外20个 在行政方面完全或部分支持人工食品计划的工作人员。 作为此应用程序的一部分，MDA-FFSD将创建一个战略改进计划， 概述通过维护和持续维护保持与MFRPS的完全一致 进步。MDA-FFSD将提高国家应对粮食的能力和能力 通过RRT处理污染事件，并维护为所有人提供论坛的FPTF 国家粮食保护系统的利益攸关方，最大限度地保护公共健康 通过融合活动。此外，MDA-FFSD将完成放大的特殊项目 MFRPS和RRT支持FDA的使命和愿景，即在 IFSS。

Project Abstract This cooperative agreement is intended to support the Manufactured Food Regulatory Program Standards (MFRPS), Rapid Response Teams (RRT) and Food Protection Task Force (FPTF) Programs, as well as Special Projects supporting these programs. The intended outcome of this FOA is to advance efforts for a nationally integrated food safety system (IFSS) by assisting state programs in achieving and maintaining conformance with the MFRPS, establish and/or support a Food Protection Task Force, facilitate long-term improvements and innovation by unifying and coordinating federal/state/local human and animal food response efforts, and support innovation and integration in an IFSS using the MFRPS or RRT framework for special projects. The Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA) Food and Feed Safety Division (FFSD) licenses and inspects approximately 10,000 food facilities including 2,000 manufactured food facilities in Minnesota. The MDA-FFSD has a dedicated Manufactured Food Program responsible for manufactured food licensing, compliance, and inspection activities. The Manufactured Food Program has 16 staff members including one program manager, two food supervisors, one dedicated support person, and 12 field inspectors. FFSD has an additional 20 staff that fully or partially support the Manufactured Food Program in administrative capacities. The MDA-FFSD, as part of this application, will create a strategic improvement plan that outlines maintaining full conformance with the MFRPS through maintenance and continuous improvement. MDA-FFSD will advance national capacity and capabilities for response to food contamination events through the RRT and maintain a FPTF that provides a forum for all stakeholders of the state food protection system and maximize the protection of public health through integration activities. In addition, MDA-FFSD will complete special projects that amplify MFRPS and RRT work that support FDA's mission and vision for building mutual reliance in an IFSS.
