SECTION 110806-110807



110806.  (a) A meat or poultry supplier, distributor, broker, or
processor that sells a meat- or poultry-related product in California
that meets the criteria for a Class I or Class II recall according
to the United States Department of Agriculture guidelines shall
immediately notify the State Department of Public Health and shall
provide the department with a list of all customers, including a firm
name, address, contact person's name, telephone number, fax, and
e-mail address, that have received or will receive any product
subject to recall that the supplier, distributor, broker, or
processor has handled or anticipates handling. The list shall include
all pertinent identifying codes, including establishment numbers,
package codes, product codes, pack dates, and lot numbers, if any,
received or to be received, and any other relevant information. The
information shall be electronically submitted to the department in a
spreadsheet format specified by the department, and shall include,
but not be limited to, a complete product distribution list of the
recalled product, for each customer, including product ship date,
amount of product shipped and amount of any product returned. The
supplier, distributor, broker, or processor shall immediately notify
each of its customers that received or may receive those products of
the recall in a standardized format. The supplier, distributor,
broker, or processor shall document this notification process,
including who was notified, the date and time of the notification,
and by what method they were notified. This information shall be
maintained by the supplier, distributor, broker, or processor and
shall be provided to the department upon request.
   (b) The department may, after receiving the information required
by subdivision (a), notify appropriate local health officers and
environmental health directors, as soon as practicable, that a
business in the local jurisdiction has handled or received, or
anticipates handling or receiving, a recalled meat- or
poultry-related product. The department shall, if it makes the
notification authorized by this subdivision, provide appropriate
local health officers and environmental health directors with each
supplier's, distributor's, broker's, processor's, or retailer's name,
address, contact information, affected product identifying codes,
including establishment numbers, package codes, product codes, pack
dates, and lot numbers, if any, and all other supply chain
information available.
   (c) (1) If the department makes the notification authorized by
subdivision (b), the department, local health officers, and
environmental health directors may notify the public in a manner
local health officers, in consultation with the department and
environmental health directors, deem appropriate regarding recalled
meat- and poultry-related products based on their determination that
the retailer is present within the local jurisdiction and has
received or made the product available to the public.
   (2) If the retailer is a restaurant, and a determination has been
made by a local health officer or environmental health officer that
the contaminated product has not been served, sold, or otherwise
offered to the public for consumption, and the contaminated product
has been permanently removed from the restaurant's food supply, then
the public notification shall exclude the name or any other
identifying feature of the restaurant.
