PARTIAL PUMP-OUT OF TANKS AT THE FARM

This practice is allowed if the farm bulk tank is equipped with an acceptable
seven (7) day recording device complying with Appendix H or other acceptable
recording device to assure the bulk tank is cleaned at least every 72 hours.

If the tank does not have a recorder, then partial pumping is permitted if the tank
is cleaned and sanitized prior to the next milking.

Emergency or inclement weather conditions, etc., variances may be allowed by
the regulatory agency.
