Meeting Called to Order: 1:01 p.m.
Recording Secretary of Minutes: Chris Remus.
Old Business: Minutes from last meeting were approved. There was discussion on why none of last year’s submitted symposia were accepted. Lee-Ann Jaykus, Program Committee, indicated that there were 70 submissions and 30 slots. She indicated that the Program Committee is always looking for new topics. Lee-Ann indicated that this committee should also be used as a vehicle for networking and discussion of common issues.
New Business: Todd Rossow was elected as the new Vice Chair of the Food Hygiene and Sanitation Committee. Floor was open and discussion generated four suggested symposia:
1. Exclusion of Ill Food Workers. This is an important issue. Perhaps this topic could be a roundtable discussion with short presentations plus a question and answer session with the audience? Subjects to include: US and Canadian perspective, Legalities, Cultural differences, and Physician education. It was also felt important to have someone represent the food worker. Rocelle Clavero will investigate and coordinate.
2. Hand Hygiene. This topic generated much discussion. An outline for a proposed symposium was generated with these six headings: Gloves – Pros and Cons; Proper Handwashing Technique; Hand Sanitizers – Pros and Cons; Primary Modes of Contamination by Hands; Regulatory Requirements; and Industry Best Practices. Fred Reimers will coordinate.
3. Produce Safety and Sanitation. Dale Grinstead passed out a proposal that he and Bassam Annous developed. The main topics were: Food Safety Risks with Raw Produce; How Pathogens Get into Produce; GAP (Good Agricultural Practices), Direct Intervention Technologies and Sanitary Organic Processing. Depending on other PDG submissions either of these two subjects: Farm Water Quality or Hygiene and Sanitation – Farm to Fork would be presented. Dale Grinstead and Bassam Annous will continue to develop a submission.
4. Simpler Sanitation. Kelly Stevens suggested having a symposium on making sanitation easier and simpler. There was discussion of suitable topics. It was suggested to have this as a half symposium with these three subjects: Simplistic Cleaning; Cleaning RTC (Round the Clock); and Cleaning Process Validation. Kelly will continue to develop. There was no further discussion. Dale Grinstead closed the meeting.

1. Approve Todd Rossow as the new Vice Chair.
