17. How will documentation be utilized to trace back to the producer?

The COC on file from each supplying plant must have records to support that each lot in question meets EU requirements for SCC and SPC. AMS will conduct a review to trace back at least one continuous line of production from exported product to farm milk source.
18. How long must records be retained for review purposes?
Records documenting compliance must be kept a minimum of 12 months or since the last review, whichever is longer. Retention of records shall not be required beyond 3 years.
