Guidance for Industry: Use of Water by Food Manufacturers in Areas Subject to a Boil-Water Advisory; Availability

Краткое содержание

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing the availability of a guidance entitled "Guidance for Industry: Use of Water by Food Manufacturers in Areas Subject to a Boil-Water Advisory." This guidance is intended to advise food manufacturers that once a boil-water advisory has been issued they should stop using the water subject to the advisory until the water again meets the applicable Federal and State drinking water quality standards. Further, this guidance is intended to assist food manufacturers in evaluating food that already was produced with water subject to the advisory. The guidance is in response to the recent major water pipe break in Massachusetts that interrupted service to 30 Massachusetts Water Resources Authority (MWRA) customer communities (serving approximately 2 million residents).
