Salmonella and Campylobacter in
Young Chicken and Turkey Slaughter
Establishments; New Compliance
Guides
AGENCY: Food Safety and Inspection
Service, USDA.
ACTION: Notice.
SUMMARY: The Food Safety and
Inspection Service (FSIS) is announcing
new performance standards for the
pathogenic micro-organisms Salmonella
and Campylobacter for use in young
chicken and turkey slaughter
establishments. The new performance
standards were developed in response
to a charge from the Food Safety
Working Group. The Agency tentatively
plans to implement these new
performance standards for chilled
carcasses in July 2010. The new
standards are based on recent FSIS
Nationwide Microbiological Baseline
Data Collection Programs: The Young
Chicken Survey and the Young Turkey
Survey. The Agency invites comments
on the new performance standards.
FSIS is also announcing that it has
posted on its Web site the third edition
of the compliance guide for controlling
Salmonella and Campylobacter in
poultry and a compliance guide on preharvest management to reduce E. coli
O157:H7 contamination in cattle. FSIS
issues guidance documents to present
current Agency thinking on specific
topics related to food safety. Though
Agency guidance documents are
recommendations rather than regulatory
requirements and are revised as new
information becomes available, FSIS
encourages meat and poultry
establishments to follow this guidance.
FSIS requests comments on these
guidance documents.
DATES: Comments are due by July 13,
2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
FSIS is the public health regulatory
agency in the U.S. Department of
Agriculture (USDA) that is responsible
for ensuring that the nation’s
commercial supply of meat, poultry,
and processed egg products is safe,
wholesome, and appropriately labeled
and packaged. FSIS is a participant in
the President’s Food Safety Working
Group (FSWG), which was created by
President Obama in March 2009 to
recommend improvements to the U.S.
food safety system. The FSWG is
chaired by Secretary of Agriculture Tom
Vilsack and Health and Human Services
Secretary Kathleen Sebelius. In July
2009, the FSWG published Key
Findings (FSWG Key Findings)
recommending a new, public healthfocused approach to food safety based
on three core principles: Prioritizing
prevention, strengthening surveillance
and enforcement, and improving
response and recovery.
The FSWG charged FSIS with ‘‘cutting
Salmonella risk in Poultry Products’’ by
‘‘develop[ing] new standards to reduce
