WASHINGTON, Nov. 3, 2005 - The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and
Inspection Service (FSIS) today announced that it is accepting nominations for the 2005 Howard E. Bauman
award. The award is the highest food safety honor presented by FSIS and recognizes one or more individuals
who have exhibited leadership and a longstanding commitment to improving food safety and protecting public
health.
The award is named for Dr. Howard E. Bauman, widely recognized for his pioneering efforts to develop the
Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) food safety system. HACCP is the system that is designed
to minimize or eliminate the occurrence of pathogenic microorganisms on meat and poultry products. It forms
the foundation of the daily inspections that are performed by FSIS program personnel at every federally
inspected meat, poultry and egg products plant.
Nominees must be U.S. citizens and only one nomination per person or organization will be considered. Nominations
for the Bauman Award will be reviewed by a Nomination Review Committee appointed by the Under Secretary for Food
Safety and the Administrator of FSIS.
The nomination form is available at https://webarchive.library.unt.edu/eot2008/20090305075543/http://www.fsis.usda.gov/FSISForms/4450-1.pdf (PDF Only).
Send nominations to Ms. Faye Smith, Special Assistant to the Deputy Administrator, FSIS, Room 331-E, 1400 Independence Avenue, SW,
Washington, DC 20250-3700. Mailed nominations must be postmarked no later than December 5, 2005. You may also fax nominations to
Ms. Smith at (202) 690-0550 or call (202) 720-7025 for additional information.
