There were six companies in a city associated with Washington County that received FDA citations as a result of six inspections conducted in the county throughout 2023, according to reports from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This is a 45.5% decrease from the number of companies cited in the previous year.

The citations in the county include:

• Separate or defined areas to prevent contamination or mix-ups are deficient regarding the manufacturing and processing operations.
• Specific identification tests are not conducted on components that have been accepted based on the supplier's report of analysis.
• You did not conduct and document your hazard analysis.

Most of the companies cited were involved in the Food and Cosmetics sector.

All of the companies cited should take voluntary actions to correct their managing operations.

The FDA routinely inspects facilities across the nation to determine if the workplace and their products are compliant with FDA-regulated laws and regulations implemented to improve overall public health. Inspection results are then disclosed publicly.

The FDA is a government agency that is primarily responsible for monitoring the production and distribution of human and animal drugs, biological products, medical supplies and tobacco products for safety quality, according to its website.
