FDA 483 - Lea Way Farms dba Blue Ridge Beef - October 01, 2019

This FDA Form 484, a "Receipt for Samples," documents the collection of product samples from Lea Way Farms, operating as Blue Ridge Beef. On October 1, 2019, an FDA Investigator collected two distinct samples from the firm's facility at 417 Garden Valley Rd, Statesville, NC 28625. These included sample INV1098421, comprising ten half-pound units of in-process ground beef, and sample INV1098422, consisting of ten two-pound units of finished ground beef from the freezer. The form itself is dated October 25, 2019. The samples were obtained under the regulatory authority of Section 704(c) and/or Section 532(b) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, and potentially 21 CFR 1307.02. It is important to note that this document serves solely as an acknowledgement of sample collection. Unlike an FDA Form 483, which details inspectional observations and potential violations, this Form 484 does not include any information regarding specific issues, regulatory non-compliance, or mandated corrective actions for Lea Way Farms.
