Food Safety Modernization Act (P.L. 111–353).

This Act amends the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to introduce a major reform to food safety supervision and control by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). It requires enhanced regulation of produce from farm to sale and other FDA regulated foods from processing to sale and introduces food defense requirements. All food producers (i.e., food manufacturers, processors, packers, and distributors), except USDA regulated meat, poultry, and processed egg producers, will be required to comply with general requirements set out by this Act unless otherwise exempted. These requirements are to - register with the FDA biannually; create a Food Safety Plan with science-based preventive controls based on a hazard analysis; create a Food Defense Plan with science-based mitigation strategies based on a vulnerability assessment; promptly report any foods that may cause adverse health effects to the Reportable Food Registry; compliance for dairy farms (except very small ones) with some portions of the Intentional Adulteration Rule (actual requirements will be in the final rule).
