USDA/FSIS RIN: 0583-AC58 Publication ID: Spring 2020 
Title: Egg Products Inspection Regulations 
Abstract:

The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) will require official egg products plants to develop and implement Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) Systems and Sanitation Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), consistent with HACCP and Sanitation SOP requirements in the meat and poultry products inspection regulations. FSIS will require egg products plants to produce egg products using a process that will eliminate detectable pathogens from the finished product.

In addition, FSIS is amending the egg products inspection regulations by removing the current requirements for prior approval by FSIS of egg products plant drawings, specifications, and equipment prior to their use in official plants; providing for the generic labeling of egg products; requiring safe handling labels on shell eggs and egg products; and changing the Agency’s interpretation of the requirement for continuous inspection in official plants.
