Biosecurity Resources for Processors
Processing plant employees, milk haulers, truck drivers, and others who contact raw milk or raw milk products must observe proper biosecurity protocols to avoid spreading FMD virus to susceptible animals when leaving the plant.
FMD is not a public health or food safety concern. Milk is safe.
Biosecurity guidance for plant employees, milk haulers, and truck drivers to follow prior to and after leaving the plant is provided in the full 60 page Biosecurity Performance Standards (BPS) for Raw Milk Collection and Transport document.
