Dairy Program
CHS inspectors in Wyoming inspect
approximately 30 dairies and follow the requirements of the Food &
Drug Administration’s Pasteurized Milk Ordinance when performing the
inspections. The dairies are inspected every 5
months and are rated with a score starting at 100 and reduced
according to points assigned to each type of violation.
Sampling of the milk occurs on a regular basis to determine
if there are antibiotics in the milk or if there is bacterial
contamination. Monthly sampling of the milk
occurs to determine if any of the dairy herds have brucellosis.
According to the Pasteurized Milk Ordinance, it is illegal to
sell raw milk to the final consumer. Wyoming strictly follows this requirement.
