Introduction 

Inspection findings by Inspection Program Personnel (IPP) during ante-mortem 

and post-mortem inspection that identify diseased animals or carcasses, must be 

reported in PHIS in Animal Disposition Reporting. The IPP is responsible for 

collecting, storing, and reporting information on the disposition of livestock and 

poultry presented for slaughter at all official Federal and Talmadge-Aiken 

establishments. Within PHIS, IPP are authorized to create and edit several types 

of animal disposition data within the system. 

General Information 

Daily dispositions for livestock slaughter establishments are entered on a per 

shift basis. If there are two slaughter shifts, then data will be entered for both 

shifts. 

Daily dispositions for poultry slaughter establishments are entered on a per lot 

basis. The establishment is responsible for designating the lots.

Animal Disposition Reporting 

2/27/2019 

Disposition data is associated with the actual day of slaughter, not the date that 

the information is entered into PHIS. Whenever possible, ADR data should be 

entered at the end of shift. 

Livestock Disposition Data Entry 

For livestock slaughter, both ante-mortem (AM) and post-mortem (PM) data are 

entered on a per shift basis. Dispositions of U.S. Suspect and U.S. Condemned 

livestock, made as a result of AM inspection, are entered into PHIS. For each 

animal condemned on AM, the PHV is to complete FSIS Form 6150-1, 

Identification Tag – Ante-mortem. . Each disposition made is associated with a 

specific U.S. Condemned or U.S. Suspect tag number. However; the IPP may 

record multiple deads and the associated serial “U.S. Condemned” tag (Z-tag) 

numbers on a single FSIS Form 6150-1, Identification Tag – Ante-mortem. 

NOTE: Tag number (from tag type) formats need to follow PHIS rules. 

U.S. Suspect Must start with ‘M’ followed by 8 digits. These tags are only used

during ante-mortem inspection. 

U.S. Condemned Must start with ‘Z’ followed by 7 digits. These tags are only 

used when animals are condemned on ante-mortem inspections. 

U.S. Retained In this context, the gang tags, starting with “MPD” and 8 digits that 

are used on the kill floor to identify carcasses railed out for veterinary disposition 

The “B” series are tags (U.S. Reject or Retained) used by off-line IPP 

Note: Head count values entered into PHIS do not include any livestock 

condemned on antemortem.

Animal Disposition Reporting 

2/27/2019 

In PHIS, only the post-mortem carcass dispositions made by the PHV (carcasses 

railed out to the PHV) are entered into PHIS. The individual entries will have the 

retain tag number and there is a free text narrative box to record additional 

information. 

Note: Dispositions made on parts by line inspectors as part of their inspection 

activities will not be entered into PHIS. 

Condemnation certificates can be automatically generated by PHIS for both AM 

and PM condemnations. These certificates can be printed out and signed. 

Animal Disposition will be the portal for collecting data on in-plant residue 

screening test results (KISTM) and for requesting laboratory confirmation of 

presumptive positive test results. 

Each residue screening test result will be individually associated with the AM or 

PM disposition decision for that carcass. 

Additionally, ADR will be the portal for collecting the number of Brucellosis and 

Tuberculosis samples taken, along with BSE sample information. 

Noncompliance Determination for Residue Violations 

Establishments that slaughter livestock are expected to identify the foodborne 

hazards, including chemical hazards (9 CFR 417.2(a)(3(V)), in animals offered 

for slaughter. According to 9 CFR 417.2, establishments are to identify the 

hazards that are reasonably likely to occur in their production processes and to 

establish steps to prevent, eliminate, or reduce those hazards to an acceptable 

level. 

In the Federal Register Notice, “Residue Control in a HACCP Environment” (70

FR 70809, November 28, 2000, see link below), FSIS informed establishments 

that if their HACCP plans include residue controls that constitute the best 

available preventive practices for slaughter establishments, then the Agency will 

not treat violative residue findings as noncompliances. However, the 

establishment must implement those controls effectively, including corrective 

actions and supply FSIS with information about residue violators. 

http://www.fsis.usda.gov/Frame/FrameRedirect.asp?main=http://www.fsis.usda.g 

ov/OPPDE/rdad/FRPubs/00-043N.htm 

Examples of best available preventive practices for control of violative residues 

include: 

 Ensuring that all animals brought into an establishment for slaughter are 

identified so they can be traced back to their producers, with receiving as a 

CCP. 

 Notifying animal producers in writing of residue findings, with such 

notification including: a discussion of the issues involved; the company’s 

Inspection Methods 26-3

future expectations; an indication that repeat violators will not be future 

suppliers. 

 Explore possibilities for the establishment of state-certified voluntary 

residue avoidance programs comparable to those developed by major 

producer trade organizations and require suppliers to participate in such 

programs and supply certifications to that effect. 

 Explore the possibilities of live-animal testing so slaughter establishments 

could have a rapid, convenient verification tool. 

FSIS Directive 10,800 instructs inspection program personnel how to perform 

residue sampling, testing, verification procedures, and noncompliance 

determination in accordance with the National Residue Program (NRP). This 

directive focuses on animal identification; familiarizes inspection program 

personnel with the detection of implants; and addresses the monitoring and 

receipt of laboratory results. 

FSIS Notice 41-12 advises Public Health Veterinarians (PHVs) about their 

responsibilities when they are informed by the District Office or otherwise 

determine that an establishment has more than one FSIS laboratory-confirmed 

residue violation from the same source supplier. 

Poultry Disposition Data Entry 

Poultry condemnation data is entered on a per lot basis. The establishment is 

responsible for designation of a lot. IPP will be able to generate condemnation 

certificates which can be printed and signed. The data entered into the 

disposition page will automatically populate the condemnation certificates. 

Since April 26, 2001, U.S. establishments slaughtering or processing ratites for 

human food have been subject to the requirements of the PPIA and the poultry 

regulations, 9 CFR Part 381. Inspection program personnel perform ante-mortem 

and post-mortem inspection on all ratites. In addition, inspection program 

personnel verify that ratites showing signs or conditions of disease on antemortem inspection are slaughtered separately or condemned. Ante-mortem and 

post-mortem ratite inspection data is entered into PHIS along with the 

appropriate tag number.

Exercise 1 – How to Specify Weight Reporting Frequency 

The Weight Reporting Frequency Web Page allows the user to edit the frequency 

which a slaughter facility typically reports animal weights. The PHIS default 

frequency is “daily”, and should only be changed if the slaughter frequency is not 

daily. 

The No Weight Report option is used when the establishment never provides 

weight data. 

1. From the Homepage, click “Animal Disposition” in the Navigation Menu to 

expand the ADR Navigation menu. 

2. Click "Weight Reporting Frequency" on the ADR Navigation Menu. 

The Weight Reporting screen opens with the following data entry fields:

to the IPP. (Open Beef) 

4. Define the Inspected and Custom Slaughter Frequency, daily is default. 

5. Click "Save" to complete. 

Exercise 2 – How to Record a No Kill Period 

The No Kill Period page allows the IPP to record periods when slaughter would 

normally be expected to occur, but did not for a day or shift. This does not 

indicate that the establishment is closed, just that slaughter did not occur for the 

specified time frame. 

1. From the Navigation Menu click "No Kill Period". 

The “No Kill Period” screen opens with the following data entry fields: 

Establishment, Shift, and a grid to display defined No Kill Periods. There also

Summary 

The IPP is responsible for collecting, storing, and reporting information on the 

disposition of livestock and poultry presented for slaughter at all official Federal 

and Talmadge-Aiken establishments. All slaughter information is entered into 

PHIS and will correspond to the actual day of slaughter. Features of Animal 

Disposition include: 

1. Daily dispositions of U.S. Suspect and U.S. Condemned livestock are 

entered into PHIS through Animal Disposition on a per shift basis. 

2. Custom slaughter information can also be entered into PHIS. 

3. Poultry daily dispositions are entered on a per lot basis. 

4. Condemnation certificates can be printed for both livestock and poultry. 

5. Animal Disposition will be the portal for collecting data on in-plant residue 

screening test results (for KISTM) and for requesting laboratory

confirmation of presumptive positive test results. 

6. The ADR APHIS Lab Sampling page allows the IPP to enter the collection 

data for the number of Tuberculosis, Brucellosis and BSE samples taken 

for that shift.
