U.S. - FDA Food Safety Modernization Act: Focus on Preventive Controls for Facilities; Public Meeting

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will hold a public meeting to provide interested persons an opportunity to discuss implementation of the preventive controls for facilities provisions of the recently enacted FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA).

FDA is seeking information on preventive controls used by facilities to identify and address hazards associated with specific types of food and specific processes. The public will have an opportunity to provide information and share views that will inform the development of guidance and regulations on preventive controls for food facilities that manufacture, process, pack or hold human food or animal food and feed (including pet food).
