Coverage: federally inspected establishments only, as listed in the FSIS MPI directory. Plants under state inspection programs and custom-exempt or retail-exempt operations without a federal grant are not in the directory and not here. Recall matches are by establishment number as written in the notice text; a notice that names only a company is not attributed to any plant.
