[Docket No. 95–016N]

National Forum on Animal Production

Food Safety

AGENCY: Food Safety and Inspection

Service, USDA.

ACTION: Notice of meeting.

SUMMARY: The Food Safety and

Inspection Service (FSIS) will hold a

forum, ‘‘National Forum on Animal

Production Food Safety,’’ on May 23–

25, 1995, at the University of Maryland,

The Inn and Conference Center,

University College, College Park,

Maryland. The forum will explore ways

FSIS can refine and advance its strategy

to assure the safety of meat and poultry

products from farm to table as outlined

in the proposal, ‘‘Pathogen Reduction;

Hazard Analysis and Critical Control

Point (HACCP) Systems.’’

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms.

Margaret Webb, Communications and

Public Affairs, FSIS Animal Production

Food Safety Program, FSIS, USDA, (202)

690–2683.

To register to attend, call Ms. Jennifer

Callahan (202) 501–7136.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On

February 3, 1995, FSIS published a

proposed rule, ‘‘Pathogen Reduction;

Hazard Analysis and Critical Control

Point (HACCP) Systems’’ (60 FR 6774).

In that document, the Agency proposed

a number of regulatory changes

applicable to Federal- and Stateinspected meat and poultry

establishments. The proposed changes

are designed to reduce the occurrence

and numbers of pathogenic

microorganisms in meat and poultry

products, thereby reducing the

incidence of foodborne illness

associated with the consumption of

these products.

In the proposed rule, FSIS stated that

public meetings would be held with the

regulated industry and interested

parties. Although the proposed

regulations address product safety

within an establishment environment,

FSIS recognizes that food safety requires

attention throughout the chain of

production, processing, distribution,

and sale. Therefore, FSIS is holding the

forum, ‘‘National Forum on Animal

Production Food Safety,’’ to explore

FSIS strategy to assure the safety of meat

and poultry products from farm to table.

The forum, ‘‘National Forum on

Animal Production Food Safety,’’ will

be held on May 23–25, 1995, at the

University of Maryland, The Inn and

Conference Center, University College,

College Park, Maryland 20742 (301)

985–7445. On May 23 and 24 the forum

will begin at 8:00 a.m. and end at 5:30

p.m. On May 25 the forum will begin at

8:00 a.m. and end at 12:30 p.m.

Forum Agenda

The forum will primarily focus on the

preventive approach to reducing

microbial pathogens from the farm to

the slaughter plant. Objectives are to

define the current status of food safety

risks and possible risk reduction

measures in animal production

practices; to work toward national

consensus on research priorities; to

identify partnerships needed for

research and education; to explore

effective public/private funding

processes to sustain research and build

science-based prevention programs; to

identify roles and responsibilities of

stakeholders; and to consider the role of

FSIS’ Animal Production Food Safety

Program.

Several speakers will address key

issues relating to HACCP and

international animal production food

safety programs. In addition, attendees

will participate in commodity

workshops addressing topics relating to

the forum. Producers, processors,

government agencies, consumer groups,

university scientists, the veterinary

community, and all interested groups

are invited to participate. Transcripts of

the forum will be available in the FSIS

Docket Clerk’s Office, Room 4352, South

Agriculture Building, Food Safety and

Inspection Service, U.S. Department of

Agriculture, Washington, DC 20250.

Attendance and Hotel Reservations

Seating space at the forum is limited.

Please call Ms. Jennifer Callahan if you

wish to attend the forum (see FOR

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT). People

attending the forum will be responsible

for making their own hotel

arrangements.

Done at Washington, DC, on: April 21,

1995.
