- Summary: On January 22, 2013, an FDA investigation of Oak Grove Farm in Lambsburg, VA, confirmed the sale of an adulterated feeder heifer for slaughter. On November 3, 2012, the farm sold a heifer, slaughtered on November 8, 2012, which contained 44.69ppm of Oxytetracycline in kidney tissue, exceeding the 12ppm tolerance (21 C.F.R. 556.500). This violates sections 402(a)(2)(C)(ii) and 402(a)(4) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) [21 U.S.C. 342 (a)(2)(C)(ii) and 21 U.S.C. 342 (a)(4)].

The investigation also found inadequate conditions likely to result in medicated animals with harmful drug residues entering the food supply. Deficiencies include: lack of an adequate system to ensure proper withdrawal times for medicated animals, failure to maintain complete treatment records, failure to segregate treated animals, and failure to observe withdrawal times and drug label directions.

Oak Grove Farm must take prompt action to correct these violations and establish procedures to prevent recurrence. Failure to comply may result in regulatory action, including seizure and/or injunction. A written response detailing corrective actions and timelines
