## Details

- Record Type: 483
- Company Name: The Blair Milling & Elevator Company, Inc.
- Inspection Date: 2024-02-22
- Product Type: veterinary
- Office Name: Kansas City District Office
- Summary: An FDA inspection conducted on February 21-22, 2024, at Blair Milling and Elevator Co., Inc. in Atchison, KS, a licensed medicated feed mill, revealed several significant observations documented in an FDA Form 483. The company was cited for failing to investigate a discrepancy in batch production records from December 2023, where a medicated feed contained an incorrect dosage of chlortetracycline. Further issues included an inadequate animal food safety plan. The plan's hazard analysis was found deficient, listing "plant protein products" instead of specific ingredients with varying hazards, and neglecting to identify potential chemical or physical hazards during manufacturing. Additionally, references to Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) within the plan were generic ("SOP-XX") rather than specific documents. A repeat observation noted the lack of records documenting employee training in animal food hygiene and safety principles. Finally, the firm had not reanalyzed its food safety plan since January 2019, exceeding the required three-year interval. These observations indicate a need for Blair Milling and Elevator Co., Inc. to implement robust corrective actions to ensure compliance with animal food safety regulations.
