SECTION 7

The written requirements, administrative procedures, and public health
reasons for each item may be found in the current edition of the
Ordinance. The purpose of this training manual is not to replace the
PMO, but to point out any special areas of concern or inspection
emphasis that should be considered during regulatory dairy farm
inspections. This manual may also be useful to the state and federal
milk rating officers, dairy farm industry fieldperson, milking equipment
installer’s, veterinarians, the agricultural extension person and/or the
dairy farmer. The comments in this training manual are not verbatim
duplications of the Items, although some might be. This manual,
however, may contain many statements that may be paraphrased from
the PMO requirements, Public Health Reasons, Administrative
Procedures or interpretive memorandums.

For applicability of items to Automatic Milking Installations (AMIs), refer
to Appendix Q in the PMO.
