Vander Schaaf Dairy #2 – FDA Warning Letter, Sep 27, 2010
On January 10, 2011, the FDA issued a Warning Letter to Vander Schaaf Dairy #2 following an investigation on September 22 and 27, 2010. The investigation found the dairy offered an adulterated animal for slaughter and held animals under insanitary conditions.

The dairy also failed to maintain complete treatment records, leading to adulterated food under 21 U.S.C. 342(a)(4).
Furthermore, the dairy adulterated new animal drugs by using sulfadimethoxine, penicillin G procaine, and ceftiofur extralabel without veterinary supervision, violating 21 C.F.R. Part 530. Extralabel use of sulfadimethoxine is prohibited in lactating dairy cows (21 C.F.R. 530.41(a)(9)), and its extralabel use resulted in illegal residues (21 C.F.R. 530.11(d)). Specific
