CONSENT DECREE SIGNED IN DRUG RESIDUE CASE
On July 5, 1995, a Consent Decree of Permanent Injunction was signed by David
L. Hogan, owner of Hogan's Misty Meadow Dairy, Tillamook, Oregon. This dairy
is primarily a producer of fluid milk, with a producing herd of 700 cows. In
addition, the farm produces bull calves which are sold for slaughter or for
further raising and then slaughter for human food.
The injunction action against Mr. Hogan was based on 16 residue incidents
in veal during the period from March 1990 through June 1994. The illegal drug
residues involved included streptomycin, neomycin, gentamicin, and oxytetracycline.
The Consent Decree permanently restrained and enjoined Mr. Hogan from introducing
or delivering for introduction into interstate commerce any cattle intended
to be slaughtered for use as food or any edible tissues of cattle unless and
until medicated cows and bulls are identified, medicated in accordance with
approved labeling, and held for the proper withdrawal period. The Consent Decree
also requires that calves intended for sale be segregated into a separate pen,
medicated calves or calves fed colostrum or milk from a medicated cow be marked,
medication be used in accordance with its approved labeling, withdrawal periods
be followed, and written records be kept.
