- Summary: On February 3, 2014, the FDA issued a Warning Letter to Swiss Mountain View Egg Farm following an August 14-16, 2013 inspection. The inspection revealed significant violations of the Prevention of Salmonella Enteritidis (SE) in Shell Eggs regulation (21 CFR Part 118), rendering their shell eggs adulterated under the FD&C Act and in violation of the PHS Act.
