APPENDIX G (From FSIS Directive 8010.1, Revision 2) In determining whether to identify a person or firm for a followup surveillance review and the period within which to conduct the followup review, Investigators are to consider: 1. The firm type (i.e., business type) and ICS tier; 2. Whether the person or firm is operating under, and in compliance with, an administrative order, court order, or other binding case disposition terms; 3. Surveillance review findings, including, but not limited to, the following: a. whether products are found to be wholesome and not adulterated; b. whether sanitary conditions are such that products would not become contaminated with filth or rendered injurious to health; c. whether hazard controls are adequate to prevent products from becoming adulterated; d. whether products not intended for use as human food are being properly denatured or otherwise made inedible; and e. whether records are being maintained in compliance with agency requirements. 4. Whether the Investigator documented an apparent violation(s) of the FMIA, PPIA, EPIA; 5. Whether the Investigator initiated a product control action(s); and 6.

The National Academies issued a report on initial surveillance of in-commerce businesses by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS). FSIS requested feedback on its proposed process for priority-setting for followup surveillance in cases in which initial surveillance did not lead to an investigation or enforcement action.

Review of the Methodology Proposed by the Food Safety and Inspection Service for Followup Surveillance of In-Commerce Businesses is the result of that request. The report reviews and comments on the assumptions, risk factors, and methodology FSIS proposes to use to prioritize followup surveillance at in-commerce business with prior surveillance history.
