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 
insanitary conditions within the establishment.
