According to Cutler’s article, the Public Health Security and Bioterrorism
Preparedness and Response Act of 2002 (the Bioterrorism Act) directs
the Secretary of Health and Human Services to issue final regulations
that establish requirements regarding the establishment and maintenance,
for not longer than two years, of records by persons (excluding
farms, restaurants and certain others) who manufacture, process,
pack, transport, distribute, receive, hold, or import food. The
records that must be kept by these regulations are those that are
needed by the Secretary for inspection to allow the Secretary to
identify the immediate previous sources and immediate subsequent
recipients of food, including its packaging, in order to address
credible threats of serious adverse
health consequences or death to humans or animals. This regulation
implements the recordkeeping authority in the Bioterrorism Act.
