PART 314--HANDLING AND DISPOSAL OF CONDEMNED OR OTHER INEDIBLE PRODUCTS AT OFFICIAL ESTABLISHMENTS--Table of Contents
 
Sec. 314.3  Disposition of condemned products at official establishments having no tanking facilities.

    (a) Carcasses, parts of carcasses, and other products condemned at 
an official establishment which has no facilities for tanking shall, 
except as provided in paragraph (b) of this section or elsewhere in this 
part, be destroyed in the presence of an inspector by incineration, or 
denatured with crude carbolic acid, or cresylic disinfectant, or a 
formula consisting of one part FD&C No. 3 green coloring, 40 parts 
water, 40 parts liquid detergent, and 40 parts oil of citronella or any 
other proprietary material approved by the Administrator in specific 
cases. When such product is to be denatured, it shall be freely slashed 
before the denaturing agent is applied, except that, in the case of dead 
animals that have not been dressed, the denaturant may be applied by 
injection. The denaturant must be deposited in all portions of the 
carcass or product to the extent necessary to preclude its use for food 
purposes.
    (b) All carcasses and parts condemned on account of anthrax, as 
identified in Sec. 310.9(b) of this subchapter, at official 
establishments which are not equipped with tanking facilities shall be 
disposed of by (1) complete incineration, or (2) by thorough denaturing 
with crude carbolic acid, or cresylic disinfectant, and then disposed of 
in accordance with the requirements of the particular State or municipal 
authorities, who shall be notified immediately by the area supervisor.
