Starting next week, Produce Safety staff at the DATCP will resume modified operations.
Routine compliance inspections were halted in March by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) partial stop work order issued in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Inspections will resume in three phases. During phase one, all staff will use appropriate personal protective equipment, including face coverings. Staff will maintain social distancing of at least 6 feet when possible, sanitize all equipment between inspections, and each staff member will only inspect one farm per day.
Details of phases two and three will be released at a later date.
