Summary

Existing law establishes milk standards for market milk and cream. Existing law authorizes the Secretary of Food and Agriculture, upon the request of any interested person, to grant a temporary standard for a new milk product or a new product resembling a milk product for an initial period of one year, as provided. Existing law makes a violation of these provisions or the regulations for its enforcement a misdemeanor. This bill would define "ultra-filtered milk products" and would authorize the secretary to establish milk standards for ultra-filtered milk products sold in California. The bill would require ultra-filtered milk products to meet all standards and requirements for market milk and would require ultra-filtered milk products to be labeled in accordance with applicable federal laws. By expanding the scope of a crime, this bill would create a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
