Abstract

Excerpts from the report: Duplicate sanitary regulation and inspection costs the dairy industry--milk processors and distributors, farmers, and cooperatives--perhaps $1 million a year. In addition, substantial amounts of tax funds are expended to support duplicate regulation and inspection. In the hope that this problem can be eliminated in the next decade, the Economic Research Service of the Department of Agriculture, in cooperation with the Milk Industry Foundation, has made a study to determine the costs of such duplicate regulation and inspection. This is a preliminary report on that study. The basic premise of this study is that duplicate regulation and inspection are--or should be--unnecessary. The primary sanitation authority for each plant--whether it be city, county, or State--should perform an adequate regulatory job so that all other jurisdictions can accept its inspection as ensuring a safe and sanitary supply of fluid milk products.
