## Details

- Record Type: 483
- Company Name: Farmer John Egg Enterprises, Inc.
- Inspection Date: 2011-06-16
- Product Type: Food
- Office Name: San Francisco District Office
- Summary: This FDA Form 483 document details observations from an inspection related to *Salmonella enteritidis* (SE) prevention. The facility's written SE prevention plan was found to lack appropriate measures.

Specifically, on June 14, 2011, during a review of the written SE Monitoring and Control Program, it was noted that the plan lacked cleaning and disinfection procedures.

Furthermore, practices to prevent stray animals from entering poultry houses were not maintained. On June 15, 2011, a large black and red wild bird was observed inside house #36.

The facility also failed to maintain practices that protect against cross-contamination when equipment is moved among poultry houses. The written SE Monitoring and Control Program, reviewed on June 14, 2011, stated that "Equipment need not be disinfected between buildings as long as all flocks remain negative." However, on June 15, 2011, several instances of equipment movement without cleaning or disinfection were observed: a ladder was moved from house #25 to #26; an employee used a bicycle to move between houses #20 and #24, passing through houses #21-23; and an employee used a bicycle to move between houses #34 and #39, passing through houses #35-38. In all these cases, the equipment was not cleaned or disinfected between houses.
