Development and Maintenance of the Animal Feed Regulatory Program Standards

印第安纳州化学家办公室(OISC)的使命是保护公众消费者、牲畜和 宠物，制造商/生产者来自：虚假陈述或以其他方式虚假陈述饲料、肥料、 市场上的种子和农药产品；滥用饲料、化肥、种子或杀虫剂，使这些 可能对人或动物造成疾病或伤害，或不可接受地扰乱环境。这项任务是 通过确保印第安纳州提供的饲料、化肥、种子和农药产品的标签真实实现 商业；要求对这些材料的确定用户和操作者进行培训；并对产品进行监管 以及符合印第安纳州和已分配给OISC的联邦法律的人员。OISC可能 涉及法律补救措施(罚款和处罚)1)确保购买饲料的安全预期， 在印第安纳州为消费者销售的化肥、种子和杀虫剂产品，并在其中为 宠物或家畜；2)通过标签和教育用户确保负责任地使用这些相同的产品 争取合规；及3)积极支持综合食物安全制度，并致力改善 印第安纳州的环境。我们建议的主要目标是进一步开发、实施和维持 印第安纳州质量监管计划的最佳实践，以提高动物饲料和食品安全。这将会 需要加强机构间协作、合作和沟通；成就和 持续遵守动物饲料监管计划标准(AFRPS)；加强 与美国食品和药物管理局(FDA)和其他州的饲料的协调和互动 检查计划。根据这项提议，我们要求在未来五年每年提供300,000美元的赠款资金 好几年了。赠款资金将用于增强目前的动物饲料检查计划的能力，并提供 提供必要的基础设施，以继续进一步发展和维持非洲可再生燃料储存系统。一次全职时间 相当于(FTE)员工、协作和创新所需的差旅以及一些实验室设备 和供应品将有助于增强该计划进行高质量检查和 调查以减少动物饲料污染和最终相关食源性疾病的发生率 掺入动物饲料原料/供应设施。

The mission of the Office of Indiana State Chemist (OISC) is to protect the public consumer, livestock and pets, and manufacturers/producers from: Falsely represented and otherwise misrepresented feed, fertilizer, seed, and pesticide products in the marketplace; misuse of feed, fertilizer, seed or pesticides such that these may cause disease or harm to persons or animals, or unacceptably disturb the environment. This mission is accomplished by assuring truth in labeling for feed, fertilizer, seed, and pesticide products offered in Indiana commerce; by requiring training of identified users and handlers of these materials; and by regulating products and persons to gain compliance with Indiana and federal laws that have been assigned to OISC. OISC may involve legal remedies (fines and penalties) 1) to secure an expectation of safety in the purchase of feed, fertilizer, seed, and pesticide products marketed in Indiana for consumers, and therein, provide protection for pets or livestock; 2) to ensure responsible use of these same products through labeling and educating the user to gain compliance; and 3) to actively support an integrated food safety system and contribute to improving the Indiana environment. The primary objective of our proposal is to further develop, implement, and sustain Indiana's best practices for a quality regulatory program to enhance animal feed and food safety. This would entail the strengthening of interagency collaboration, cooperation, and communication; achievement and sustainment of compliance with the Animal Feed Regulatory Program Standards (AFRPS); enhancement of coordination and interactions with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and other states' feed inspection programs. Under this proposal we are requesting $300,000 annually in grant funds for the next five years. Grant funds will be used to augment current animal feed inspection program capabilities and provide the necessary infrastructure to continue further development and sustainment of AFRPS. Time of one full-time equivalent (FTE) employee, travel necessary for collaboration and innovation, and some laboratory equipment and supplies will enable enhancements to the program's ability to conduct high-quality inspections and investigations to reduce the incidence of animal feed contamination and ultimately foodborne illness associated adulterated animal feed material/supply facilities.
