Screening Failure to provide adequate screening or other protection against pests. Specifically, pedestrian doors located in the penthouse and the vinegar production areas were propped open, in addition to truck load-out doors in the warehouse that were not closed tightly.
Lack of effective pest exclusion Effective measures are not being taken to exclude pests from the processing areas. Specifically, a bird was observed in the Penthouse production area.
Reasonable precautions All reasonable precautions are not taken to ensure that production procedures do not contribute contamination from any source. Specifically, 1) The exhaust vent stack above the open kettle hood had excessive accumulation of apparent dust. 2) The nutrient feed tank lid was propped open in the Vinegar production building. 3) A section of doghouse was missing on the conveyor track between the de-palletizer and filler room.
