The inspection revealed serious violations of the seafood Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) regulation, 21 CFR Part 123, specifically 21 CFR 123.12, which pertains to imported fish and fishery products.

The primary violation cited was the firm's failure to have or implement written verification procedures, product specifications, and an affirmative step to ensure imported fish comply with the Seafood HACCP regulation, as required by 21 CFR 123.12(a)(2).
