Enforcement of FSMA's Sanitary
Transport Rule Begins April 6, 2017​

Recent

The FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), the most sweeping reform of our food safety laws in more than 70 years, was signed into law by President Obama on January 4, 2011. It aims to ensure the U.S. food supply is safe by shifting the focus from responding to contamination to preventing it.   The law provides FDA with new enforcement authorities designed to achieve higher rates of compliance with prevention- and risk-based food safety standards and to better respond to and contain problems when they do occur.
To cover the entire food system, FSMA has divided the covered areas into the following 7 rules (now final):
  1. Preventive Controls for Human Food
  2. Establish Current Good Manufacturing Practice and Hazard Analysis and Risk-Based Preventive Controls for Food for Animals
  3. Standards for the Growing, Harvesting, Packing, and Holding of Produce for Human Consumption
  4. Foreign Supplier Verification Programs (FSVP) for Importers of Food for Humans and Animals
  5. Mitigation Strategies to Protect Food Against Intentional Adulteration
  6. Accredited Third-Party Certification
  7. Sanitary Transportation of Human and Animal Food (STAHF)​
