Sec. 1210.15  Pasteurization; equipment and methods.

    All dairy farms and plants at which any milk or cream is pasteurized 
for shipment or transportation into the United States shall employ

working order. The temperature at the time of heating and holding must 
invariably be recorded on thermograph charts, initialed, numbered, and

All thermograph charts shall be held for a period of 2 years unless

authorized agents as are designated by the Secretary.
