FDA has given high priority to enhance the agency's shellfish safety program and to provide the public greater assurance of the quality and safety of these products. FDA administers the National Shellfish Sanitation Program (NSSP). Under that program, the NSSP Model Ordinance serves as guidance for State shellfish sanitation programs and the promulgation of state regulations and laws concerning shellfish safety. This cooperative agreement will enhance FDA efforts to help ensure that shellfish are free of harmful pathogens. |
