The state Department of Health on Tuesday lifted the suspension of Meadow Gold Dairies’ 2 percent reduced fat milk products. The company may again produce, sell and distribute 2 percent reduced fat milk.
Samples of 2 percent reduced fat milk taken from the Meadow Gold milk plant in Honolulu on March 1, 2 and 6 were tested and found in compliance with coliform counts of less than 1/ml. The maximum allowed coliform limit for pasteurized milk is 10/ml.
The Meadow Gold milk plant in Honolulu was also inspected on March 1 in response to the Feb. 27 suspension and was found to be in compliance with Hawaii Administrative Rules and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Pasteurized Milk Ordinance.
All other milk products from Meadow Gold Dairies meet state and federal standards required for distribution and sale.
