WASHINGTON, April 6, 2005 - The U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Food Safety and
Inspection Service (FSIS) today announced calendar year 2006 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% of total sales of the retail operation or exceed the calendar year dollar limitation.
In accordance with FSIS' regulations, the dollar limitations for meat and meat food products will be
increased to $55,100 in 2006, from $54,500 last year. For poultry products, the dollar limitation will be
reduced to $45,200 from $45,800, in 2005. These adjustments are based on changes in the Consumer Price Index.
