INTRODUCED BY   Senator Florez

                        FEBRUARY 27, 2009

   An act to add Part 5.5 (commencing with Section 111930) to
Division 104 of the Health and Safety Code, relating to public
health.



	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 550, as introduced, Florez. Public health: food product recall
technology.
   Existing law requires a meat or poultry supplier, distributor,
broker, or processor that sells a meat- or poultry-related product in
California that meets the criteria for a Class I or Class II recall
according to the United States Department of Agriculture guidelines
to immediately notify the State Department of Public Health and to
provide the department with a list of all customers, including a firm
name, address, contact person's name, telephone number, fax, and
e-mail address, that have received or will receive any product
subject to recall that the supplier, distributor, broker, or
processor has handled or anticipates handling.
   This bill would require a grocery store that uses a programmable
checkout scanner to ensure that when a recalled product is scanned,
the programmable checkout scanner will notify the employee and
customer that the product being purchased is subject to a recall.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Part 5.5 (commencing with Section 111930) is added to
Division 104 of the Health and Safety Code, to read:
