FDA Issues Recordkeeping Regulation Under Bioterorrism Act, Completing the Requirements of Law

摘要

In early December, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued the final regulation about the recordkeeping requirements under the Bioterrorism Act of 2002, the fourth set of regulations the act requires. The recordkeeping rule requires persons whohandle food, including feed and pet food, to maintain records that indicate the source of the food or ingredients and the destination for the products. These are the records that FDA inspectors will need to have to investigate credible threats of bioterrorism.
