## Details

- Record Type: 483
- Company Name: Vorderstrasse Farms LLC
- Inspection Date: 2011-05-23
- Product Type: Drugs
- Office Name: Center for Drug Evaluation and Research
- Summary: An FDA inspection conducted on May 23, 2011, at Vorderstrasse Farms LLC, a shell egg manufacturer located in Plymouth, NE, identified significant deviations from the company's written Salmonella Enteritidis (SE) prevention plan. This report, issued to owner Gary W. Vorderstrasse, details observations indicating the plan was not fully implemented or consistently followed, raising concerns about potential food safety risks. Key issues observed include the failure to perform rodent indexing by monitoring traps as specified in their prevention plan. Furthermore, environmental testing for SE was not conducted according to the plan's schedule and locations; specifically, manure pits were tested instead of manure belts and egg belts, and testing was significantly delayed. The inspection also noted a deficiency in sanitation practices, with only one dry foot bath present at the processing plant entrance, contrary to the plan's requirement for foot baths in high-traffic areas and between sections. These observations indicate a need for immediate corrective action to bring the facility's operations into full compliance with its own SE prevention plan and relevant federal food safety regulations for shell egg production. Vorderstrasse Farms LLC is expected to address these findings and implement a robust plan to ensure consistent adherence to their prevention protocols.
