Establishment No.: m18894

USDA Inspection Report: 7 Feb 2012

Code: 04B04
Violation: 317.8

Citation: On this date at approximately 0800 hours I wenttour the carcass holding cooler to inspect the area and carcasses being stored in the cooler. During the inspection I observed a Heavy Calf carcass that was slaughtered under USDA inspectionthe previous slaughter day and found that it had been stamped with the Beef InspectionBrand rather than the Calf Brand. I immediately informed Mr. Luke Shirk, owner, of the non-compliance with 9 CFR 317.8 and he immediately had the carcass properly stamped under USDA inspection.
