Findings with Risk # Risk Standard Standard # Requirement # Location 1 Improvement Needed (IN) Pest Prevention 211 21112 Shipping Area Gaps greater than Quarter in or 6 mm were noted in some areas Gaps greater than Quarter in or 6 mm could allow pest access into the facility The large overhead door used to bring in equipment into the facility shipping dock area had a gap at the top of the door The outside contractor did not put the brush seal at the top of the overhead door during the installation of brush seals on the door Recommendation: The top brush seal should be installed to prevent pest entry into the facility Also the facility should initiate an inspection procedure for any work done by outside contractors to insure the work is completed to company specifications 2 Improvement Needed (IN) Pest Prevention 211 21112 Shipping Area Gaps greater than Quarter in or 6 mm were noted in some areas Gaps greater than Quarter in or 6 mm could allow pest access into the facility The bottom concrete threshold of the overhead door used to bring in equipment next to the product shipping dock was not smooth preventing the bottom seal of the overhead door to fit securely, creating a gap between the seal and concrete threshold Recommendation: The concrete threshold on the floor base under the overhead door should be resurfaced and made smooth to allow the bottom seal of the door to securely fit eliminating the gaps at the bottom of the door 3 Improvement Needed (IN) Equipment and Utensil Construction 215 21511 Packaging Not all equipment and utensils were designed and constructed of materials that were easily cleaned and maintained The filler machine had a gap in the top film/filler cover which could allow overhead contamination Recommendation: The top Lexan cover over the film/filler needs to have the open section of the cover closed to prevent any potential contamination The design of the cover should include a vent to allow the heat being generated in the filler/film area to escape to prevent condensation from building in the area which could effect the sealing process 4 Improvement Needed (IN) Training and Education 55 5513 Facility Overview Defined requirements for ensuring of understanding and comprehension of training were not addressed for all of the Prerequisite and Food Safety Programs Recommendation: The facility should conduct exit criteria testing for all employees when they are hired to insure they have a good understanding of the product safety training materials 5 Improvement Needed (IN) Preventive Maintenance Program 514 51411 Production A partially developed Preventive Maintenance Program and work order system was implemented for this facility The equipment covering and building deficiencies noted during the audit to prevent contamination and pest control issues should be evaluated by the product safety committee Recommendation: The product safety committee and engineering department should talk to the filler manufacturer concerning the exposure on the filler machine which could allow contamination risks Also the engineering department should talk to the building landlord about the needed repairs on the overhead door and building outside walls which could allow pest entry into the manufacturing building 10 of 23

6 Minor Issues Noted (MI) Finished Product Transportation 126 12614 Facility Overview The facility is transporting the finished product to the shipping trailer and must open the production/storage room to move the product to the shipping dock for load-out No procedure was in place to insure the load-out door closed when production/storage room door opened Recommendation: The facility should write an SOP that states the shipping dock door cannot be open at the same time as the production/storage room door The SOP should state that if one door is open the other door must be closed, so that pallets for shipment are moved to the shipping dock and staged when one of the doors is closed to prevent possible pest entry into the production/storage room 7 Minor Issues Noted (MI) Walls 27 2712 Outside Grounds and Roof Holes or cracks were noted in wall surfaces The shipping dock exterior wall did not have pest protection on the surface of the wall The wall surface had holes in the surface of the wall, making the surface very rough and not smooth Recommendation: The shipping dock exterior wall should have a stainless steel flashing or epoxy paint installed on the surface of the wall to assist in the prevention of pest entry into the facility 8 Minor Issues Noted (MI) Self-Inspections 56 5623 Facility Overview Down time was not included in the self-inspection program The Facility is a new operation and should incorporate down time as a procure Recommendation: The facility is a new operation and has not begun formal operations, when operations begin down time assessments should be done of the facility and manufacturing equipment 9 Minor Issues Noted (MI) Food Defense Program 517 51713 Facility Overview The Food Defense Plan did not include all elements as defined in this Standard Recommendation: When the facility is fully staffed formal training should be given all employees regarding the food defense program and all sections of the program 11 of 23
