Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. R. 40-2-3-.02 - Approval of Labels
(1)
Manufacturer-Processor Identity Labeling: Identity is defined as the name,
address, including zip code of the plant at which the pasteurization, ultra
pasteurization or aseptic processing takes place. The Voluntary National
Uniform Coding System for Identification of Pasteurization Plants at which milk
and milk products are packaged is hereby adopted by reference, in order to
provide a uniform system of codes throughout the country. However, before a
code may be used to indicate address of the plant at which pasteurization takes
place, the code shall be registered with the regulatory agency. Name and
address and/or plant codes must be placed on the final delivery
container.
(2) In cases where
several pasteurization, ultra pasteurization or aseptic processing plants are
operated by one firm, the common firm name may be utilized on product
containers; provided, that the location of the plant at which the contents were
pasteurized is also shown, either directly or by a code. The street address of
the pasteurizing plant need not be shown when only one approved plant of a
given name is located within the municipality.
(3) Misleading labels: The regulatory agency
shall not permit the use of any misleading marks, words or endorsements upon
the label. The agency may permit the use of registered trade designs or similar
terms on the bottle cap or label when, in the agency's opinion, they are not
misleading and are clearly and conspicuously shown.
