## Details

- Record Type: WARNING_LETTER
- Company Name: Pleasant View Dairy Corporation
- Inspection Date: 2014-08-11
- Product Type: Drugs
- Office Name: Kansas City District Office
- Summary: On June 23, 24, August 6, and 11, 2014, the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship, on behalf of the FDA, inspected Pleasant View Dairy's beef operation. The inspection found violations of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.

Specifically, on May 1, 2014, Pleasant View Dairy sold a Holstein feeder steer for slaughter. USDA/FSIS analysis of tissue from this animal, slaughtered on May 2, 2014, revealed florfenicol in the liver at 5.64 ppm, exceeding the FDA tolerance of 3.7 ppm (21 C.F.R. 556.283). This constitutes adulteration under section 402(a)(2)(C)(ii) of the FD&C Act.

The investigation also found that the facility held animals under insanitary conditions, likely leading to medicated animals with harmful drug residues entering the food supply, specifically due to a failure to maintain complete treatment records. This is adulteration under section 402(a)(4) of the FD&C Act.

Furthermore, the new animal drug Nuflor (florfenicol) Injectable Solution, NADA 141-063, was adulterated. The firm used Nuflor extralabelly on the Holstein feeder steer without following the approved withdrawal period and without the supervision
