Grading Services for Poultry

PURPOSE:

The rule amendment changes and clarifies the fee and cost schedule for poultry grading services provided by Department graders and increases the hourly fees charged to a poultry processor.

SUMMARY:

The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (DACS) provide voluntary grading services to food establishments that process poultry in accordance with US Department of Agriculture standards. The Department charges the poultry processor an hourly fee to recover the costs of this service. This rule amendment provides an incremental increase to the hourly fees charged to a processor to cover the costs incurred by DACS. Additionally, language is modified to clarify the current terminology used to distinguish between regular hours, overtime hours, holiday hours, regular shift differential and overtime shift differential.
