Planning for Emergencies - Developing a Response Plan

Step four in developing a food defense plan

Be Prepared Having a food defense plan reduces

the risk of intentional contamination, but cannot prevent it

Having a response plan can minimize the effects of an intentional contamination.

Develop a Response Plan

Plan for handling of contaminated product or animals

Emergency Planning− Facility Map− Emergency Contact Phone List− Supplier/Customer Contacts− Employee Emergency Information

Case Study: This Little Piggy 1998, Malaysian pigs began dying Oct. pig farm workers suffer an epidemic Identified as new virus now called Nipah Over a million pigs from nearly 1,000 farms

were destroyed. Pig production and number of swine farms

were reduced by nearly half.

Handling of Contaminated Livestock

Animals must be quarantined until definitive diagnosis is made

Animals must be cared for during this time Animals may need to be euthanized Carcass disposal may need to occur Decontamination of facility may need to

occur

Handling of Contaminated Food Products Retained or recalled product will need to

be stored prior to disposal Storage will need to be separate from

non contaminated product Prepare a plan for disposal, to be

reviewed by FDA or FSIS and state authorities

FDA or FSIS will witness the execution of the plan

Containment and Disposal

Consider your operation and indicate where you plan to contain contaminated food products or livestock

Develop a recall plan in case food products are shipped before a contamination is discovered

Predetermine an area where livestock can be euthanized and carcasses disposed of
