FDA Redesigns Web Page to Foster Food Safety Awareness

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has redesigned its web page dedicated to the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (www.fda.gov/FSMA), in an effort to help consumers, industry, food-safety professionals, local and state regulators, and international trading partners get more involved in implementing the new law.

Key elements of the page include:

-- a link to the new web-based search engine for recalled foods

-- frequently asked questions about the food-safety legislation

-- videos and graphics explaining how the law will be implemented

-- information about public meetings on these reforms
