- Summary: On February 28, 2014, the FDA issued Warning Letter CMS # 419585 to Wilton Black, owner, following an inspection on December 19, 2013, and January 8, 2014, at his Litchfield, ME operation. The inspection confirmed a bob veal calf, ear tag (b)(4), purchased, hauled, and sold by Black on February 5, 2013, was in violation of Section 402(a)(2)(C)(ii) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act).

On February 7, 2013, this calf was slaughtered in New York, and USDA/FSIS analysis of tissue samples identified flunixin in the kidney tissue.
