  Compliance with variance, specialized process and HACCP plan

  Violation of Code: [511-6-1.04(6)(k)] During the last routine inspection I spoke with Gladys McBrayer and told them that if they want to do reduced oxygen packaging longer than 48 hours they must submit a HACCP plan. They got in touch with Mallory Finley in April to start the process for the HACCP plan but told her they would no longer vacuum package fish, Malory followed up and asked if they will vacuum package anything and they never responded. During the routine today I observed fish and other meats stored inside vacuumed sealed packaging, I also observed food being reheated in the packaging. The packaging I observed had dates longer than 48 hours. The items that were at the 48 hour mark were taken out of the packaging. CA- if the facility wants to vacuum package food longer than 48 hours they must submit a HACCP plan and have it approved before starting the process. Facility can no longer do vacuum packaging longer than 48 hours. 511-6-1.04(6)(k) - Reduced Oxygen Packaging, Criteria (P, Pf) (k) Reduced Oxygen Packaging Without a Variance But HACCP Plan Required, Criteria. 1. Except for a food service establishment that obtains a variance as specified under (j) of this Rule, a food service establishment that packages time/temperature control for safety food using a reduced oxygen packaging method shall control the growth and toxin formation of Clostridium botulinum and the growth of Listeria monocytogenes.
