Preventive Controls for Human Food
The Preventive Controls for Human Food Rule requires
facilities to conduct a hazard analysis and implement
a food safety plan, with additional requirements
existing around supply chain controls and employee
training. This applies to almond handlers and huller/
shellers not meeting the primary or secondary farm
definition or that are farm mixed type facilities as
well as custom processors and others engaged in
manufacturing/processing.

Preventive Controls for
Animal Food
This rule is similar to the Preventive
Controls for Human Food rule and
establishes requirements for animal
food that are relevant under two
conditions: 1) If you are a facility
that manufactures feed for animals
or 2) If you’re a facility that sends
human food by-products (e.g. hulls/
shells) for use as animal feed. This
rule applies to facilities such as non-
farm almond handlers and non-farm
huller/shellers.

Sanitary Transportation of Human and
Animal Food
The Sanitary Transportation of Human and Animal Food
Rule reflects long-standing industry best practices for
food transportation and establishes requirements for
vehicles and transportation equipment, records, training
and waivers. It applies to anyone that is transporting
food that is not a farm; you are exempt from this rule if
the food is fully enclosed in a container and does not
require temperature control for safety. The next compliance
deadline is April 6, 2018 for midsize businesses.
