DPC publishes guideline for sealing milk trucks
Sep 1, 2005 12:00 PM
A GUIDELINE for sealing milk tank trucks has been published by the Dairy Practices Council.
The seven-page guideline, published in March 2005, provides information on the commonly accepted procedures for sealing tank tanks as of the date of publication.
It is written to provide basic information to processing plants and milk transport companies in formulating acceptable policies and procedures that provide assurance to the public that the milk supply is secure during transport from farm to plant.
There is no mention of the security of milk and milk products in transit from plant to plant as this topic is covered in the Grade A Pasteurized Milk Ordinance.
The publication is available for $3 per copy (plus shipping and handling) from The Dairy Practices Council, 51 East Front St, Suite 2, Keyport, NJ 07735.
For more information and a free brochure, contact DPC by phone/fax at 732-203-1947 or visit the Web site at dairypc.org under guideline abstracts.
