# §350g. Hazard analysis and risk-based preventive controls

- (a) **In general—** The owner, operator, or agent in charge of a facility shall, in accordance with this section, evaluate the hazards that could affect [food](/usc/21/321.md?p=f) manufactured, processed, packed, or held by such facility, identify and implement preventive controls to significantly minimize or prevent the occurrence of such hazards and provide assurances that such [food](/usc/21/321.md?p=f) is not adulterated under [section 342 of this title](/usc/21/342.md) or misbranded under [section 343(w) of this title](/usc/21/343.md?p=w), monitor the performance of those controls, and maintain records of this monitoring as a matter of routine practice.
- (b) **Hazard analysis—** The owner, operator, or agent in charge of a facility shall—
  - (1) identify and evaluate known or reasonably foreseeable hazards that may be associated with the facility, including—
    - (A) biological, chemical, physical, and radiological hazards, natural toxins, [pesticides](/usc/21/321.md?p=q-1-A), [drug](/usc/21/321.md?p=g-1) residues, decomposition, parasites, allergens, and unapproved [food](/usc/21/321.md?p=f) and [color additives](/usc/21/321.md?p=t-1); and

- (d) **Monitoring of effectiveness—** The owner, operator, or agent in charge of a facility shall monitor the effectiveness of the preventive controls implemented under [subsection (c)](#c) to provide assurances that the outcomes described in [subsection (c)](#c) shall be achieved.
- (e) **Corrective actions—** The owner, operator, or agent in charge of a facility shall establish procedures to ensure that, if the preventive controls implemented under [subsection (c)](#c) are not properly implemented or are found to be ineffective—
  - (1) appropriate action is taken to reduce the likelihood of recurrence of the implementation failure;
  - (2) all affected [food](/usc/21/321.md?p=f) is evaluated for safety; and
  - (3) all affected [food](/usc/21/321.md?p=f) is prevented from entering into [commerce](/usc/21/360hh.md?p=4) if the owner, operator or agent in charge of such facility cannot ensure that the affected [food](/usc/21/321.md?p=f) is not adulterated under [section 342 of this title](/usc/21/342.md) or misbranded under [section 343(w) of this title](/usc/21/343.md?p=w).
- (f) **Verification—** The owner, operator, or agent in charge of a facility shall [verify](/usc/21/360eee.md?p=28) that—
  - (1) the preventive controls implemented under [subsection (c)](#c) are adequate to control the hazards identified under [subsection (b)](#b);
  - (2) the owner, operator, or agent is conducting monitoring in accordance with [subsection (d)](#d);
  - (3) the owner, operator, or agent is making appropriate decisions about corrective actions taken under [subsection (e)](#e);

  - (5) there is documented, periodic reanalysis of the plan under [subsection (i)](#i) to ensure that the plan is still relevant to the raw materials, conditions and processes in the facility, and new and emerging threats.
- (g) **Recordkeeping—** The owner, operator, or agent in charge of a facility shall maintain, for not less than 2 years, records documenting the monitoring of the preventive controls implemented under [subsection (c)](#c), instances of nonconformance material to [food](/usc/21/321.md?p=f) safety, the results of testing and other appropriate means of [verification](/usc/21/360eee.md?p=28) under [subsection (f)(4)](#f-4), instances when corrective actions were implemented, and the efficacy of preventive controls and corrective actions.
- (h) **Written plan and documentation—** The owner, operator, or agent in charge of a facility shall prepare a written plan that documents and describes the procedures used by the facility to comply with the requirements of this section, including analyzing the hazards under [subsection (b)](#b) and identifying the preventive controls adopted under [subsection (c)](#c) to address those hazards. Such written plan, together with the documentation described in [subsection (g)](#g), shall be made promptly available to a duly [authorized](/usc/21/360eee.md?p=2) representative of the [Secretary](/usc/21/321.md?p=d) upon oral or written request.
- (i) **Requirement to reanalyze—** The owner, operator, or agent in charge of a facility shall conduct a reanalysis under [subsection (b)](#b) whenever a significant change is made in the activities conducted at a facility operated by such owner, operator, or agent if the change creates a reasonable potential for a new hazard or a significant increase in a previously identified hazard or not less frequently than once every 3 years, whichever is earlier. Such reanalysis shall be completed and additional preventive controls needed to address the hazard identified, if any, shall be implemented before the change in activities at the facility is operative. Such owner, operator, or agent shall revise the written plan required under [subsection (h)](#h) if such a significant change is made or document the basis for the conclusion that no additional or revised preventive controls are needed. The [Secretary](/usc/21/321.md?p=d) may require a reanalysis under this section to respond to new hazards and developments in scientific understanding, including, as appropriate, results from the [Department](/usc/21/321.md?p=c) of Homeland Security biological, chemical, radiological, or other terrorism risk assessment.
