regulations for the SIP are contained in
50 CFR part 260. The SIP offers
inspection, grading and certification
services, including the use of official
grade marks and statements which
indicate that specific products have
been federally inspected. The SIP is the
only Federal entity which establishes
quality grade standards for seafood
marketed in the United States, and is
the competent authority for the United
States for issuing export health and
catch certificates for seafood and certain
other marine ingredients. Qualified
participants are permitted to use SIP’s
official grade marks and statements on
their products to facilitate the domestic
and global trade of fishery products and
other marine ingredients. Participation
in the SIP is open to all segments of the
seafood industry, from harvesters and
growers to retailers. When inspection
service is desired, participants are
required to submit specific information
pertaining to the type of service needed
(§ 260.15). This includes the type of
products to be inspected, the quantity,
the location of the product, and the date
when the inspection is needed.
Customers complete the NOAA Form
89–814 Request for Inspection Services
and submit it to their local inspection
office via email or over the phone. There
are also application requirements (i.e., a
letter from the participant) if there is an
appeal on previous service results
(§ 260.36). Participants requesting
regular inspection services on a
contractual basis submit a contract
using the NOAA Form 89–800
(§ 260.96). Any changes to the contract
require a contract amendment, using the
same form. When export or certain other
forms of certification is desired,
applicants are required to submit
specific information regarding the
consignment and the type of documents
required, including details about the
product, the shipper and the destination
of the consignment, through an online
portal system.
In July 1992, NMFS announced new
inspection services, which were fully
based on guidelines recommended by
the National Academy of Sciences,
known as Hazard Analysis Critical
Control Point (HACCP). The information
collection requirements fall under
§ 260.15 of the regulations. These
guidelines require that a facility’s
quality control system have a written
plan of the operation, identification of
control points with acceptance criteria
and a corrective action plan, as well as
personnel identified with responsibility
for oversight of the system.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations; Not-for-profit
