313.1
While performing Handling During Ante-mortem Inspection (HATS category IV), it was observed that pen or “lobby #2” (as the establishment refers to it) had a piece of wood broken off inside it. As a result, there was a sharp 5” wire sticking out of the bottom of a welded wire cattle panel that prevents the animals from sticking their heads out of the barn. The wire was protruding into the pen. The animals were immediately moved to Lobby #1. The Barn supervisor REDACTED was immediately notified. He then notified an establishment QA tech and maintenance who came and cut the piece of wire that was sticking out. Cattle were allowed back in lobby #2. No animals were observed injured or near the exposed wire. This is a noncompliant with regulation 9 CFR 313.1(a). Establishment QA Superintendent REDACTED was notified of the noncompliance and that a noncompliance record would be issued.
