VT Directive 5000.2 Rev 1 REVIEW OF ESTABLISHMENT TESTING DATA BY INSPECTION PROGRAM PERSONNEL

The purpose of this directive is to clarify that inspection program personnel have access to a wide range of records under the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control (HACCP) regulations (9 CFR part 417), and that they are to use that access to review certain types of records on a regular basis.
NOTE: This directive does not address Sanitation Standard Operating Procedures (Sanitation SOPs) records verification. All instructions related to verification of Sanitation SOP records are addressed in VT Directive 5000.1, Chapter I.
FSIS is reissuing this directive to instruct inspection program personnel on how to document that they conducted the weekly record review and to provide additional information on how to review establishment records.
