PROJECT ABSTRACT The maintenance of the Animal Feed Regulatory Program Standards (AFRPS) will be carried out by the New Mexico Department of Agriculture (NMDA), Feed, Seed and Fertilizer (FSF) Section utilizing the resources and processes established during the implementation process. The FSF section will continue to use iPassport for controlling all AFRPS documents and materials, manage the frequency of document reviews and to assign reviews as needed. The FSF section will continue to use USAPlants to maintain data for feed, seed and fertilizer regarding registration information, tonnage, regulatory compliance, inspections, samples, complaints and enforcement actions. FSF staff will participate and be fully transparent in audits and discussions with the FDA to identify shortcomings and pitfalls encountered in order to either modify the standards or assist the FDA in improving cooperation and regulatory activities with NM as well as other state programs. It is anticipated that this project will further develop beneficial partnerships, an adequate availability of technical expertise, well versed personnel providing regulatory oversight and compliance assistance, and a federal state relationship ultimately resulting in a successful nationally integrated feed safety system.
