Summary

Existing law establishes the Department of Food and Agriculture under the control of the Secretary of Food and Agriculture. Existing law regulates the manufacture, distribution, and labeling of commercial feed and requires the secretary to enforce those provisions and the regulations adopted pursuant to those provisions. Existing law requires the secretary to establish, by regulation, good manufacturing practices, hazard analysis, and preventive control measures as are reasonably necessary to carry out the purposes of certain provisions regulating commercial feed, including verification and validation activities for all commercial feed and additives, including medicated feed premixes and medicated feeds, as specified. Existing law requires the department to continue to be the primary regulatory agency over medicated feed, as defined, responsible for regulating medicated feed quality assurance and medicated feed safety, and enforcing any handling and inspecting requirements that are imposed on medicated feed suppliers, as provided. This bill would require any commercial feed, feed additive, or drug approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration that is fed to livestock to be under the oversight of the department as the primary state regulatory agency, including, but not limited to, products that make environmental and health claims. The bill would not construe the above-mentioned provision to limit certain authority of the State Air Resources Board.
