WASHINGTON, Mar. 30, 2007 - The U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Food Safety and Inspection
Service (FSIS) today announced calendar year 2007 dollar limitations for retail stores that sell meat and poultry
products and qualify for an exemption from federal inspection.
Retail operations are not subject to inspection unless sales to hotels, restaurants and similar institutions
exceed 25 percent of total sales or exceed the calendar year dollar limitation.
The dollar limitations for meat and meat food products will remain $55,100 in 2007, the same amount as in 2006. For
poultry products, the dollar limitation will be reduced to $44,400 from $45,200. These adjustments are based on changes
in the Consumer Price Index.
More details pertaining to the changes in dollar limitations are available at
www.fsis.usda.gov/regulations/2007_Notices_Index.
