PART 314_HANDLING AND DISPOSAL OF CONDEMNED OR OTHER INEDIBLE PRODUCTS 

AT OFFICIAL ESTABLISHMENTS--Table of Contents

 

Sec. 314.11  Handling of certain condemned products for purposes other 

than human food.



    Condemned carcasses of animals affected with one or more of the 

following conditions may be shipped from an official establishment only 

for purposes other than human food and only if permission therefor is 

obtained from the circuit supervisor: Anasarca, Ocular Squamous Cell 

Carcinoma (after removal of neoplastic tissue), emaciation, eosinophilic 

myositis, immaturity, nonseptic bruises and injuries, and 

sarcosporidiosis. This provision also applies to unborn calves and to 

products such as paunches and udders when they have not been handled as 

required under this subchapter for products for human food purposes; 

provided, such articles have not been condemned for other pathological 

reasons. Such permission will be granted only if all parts to be so used 

will be promptly handled, freely slashed and adequately identified as 

required by Sec. 325.13(a)(2) of this subchapter. The slashing, 

identification and packing of the product shall be accomplished in an 

inedible product area under the supervision of an inspector. Facilities 

must be adequate so that the carcasses or parts saved under these 

provisions are not contaminated with pus, manure, septic, or toxic 

materials, or similar substances. The operation must not result in 

unsanitary conditions within the establishment.
