Food Safety and Inspection Service
Title: Voluntary Recalls of Meat and
Poultry Products.
OMB Control Number: 0583–0135.
Summary of Collection: The Food
Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has
been delegated the authority to exercise
the functions of the Secretary as
provided in the Federal Meat Inspection
Act (FMIA) (21 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) and
the Poultry Products Inspection Act
(PPIA) (21 U.S.C. 451 et seq.) These
statutes mandate that FSIS protect the
public by ensuring that meat and
poultry products are safe, wholesome,
unadulterated, and properly labeled and
packaged. A firm that has produced or
imported meat or poultry that is
adulterated or misbranded and is being
distributed in commerce, may
voluntarily recall the product in
question. When a firm voluntarily
recalls a product, FSIS will conduct a
recall effectiveness check.
Need and Use of the Information: In
conducting a recall, the establishment
will be asked to provide FSIS with some
basic information, including the identity
of the recalled product, the reason for
the recall, and information about the
distributors and customers of the
product. FSIS will check on the
effectiveness of the recall to ensure that
all products subject to recall are
accounted for. FSIS field personnel will
use FSIS form 8400–4 A to determine
(1) if the retail consignee received
notification of the recall and (2) the
amount of recalled products received.
FSIS field personnel will also use FSIS
form 8400–4 B to verify that product
held by the retail consignee was
properly disposed.
