State Milk Board
The 12-member board administers the state’s Grade A and manufacturing grade milk sanitation programs. The board administers milk inspection relating to Grade A milk and milk supplies to assure uniformity of procedures and interpretation of milk inspection regulations. The Grade A or fluid milk activities of the state are supported by revenue from milk inspection fees.
The manufacturing grade dairy program enforces sanitation and quality standards for manufactured dairy products and provides market testing of all milk at the first point of sale. Milk procurers, manufacturing plants, field superintendents, testers, grades, samplers, bulk milk truck operators and market testing laboratories are licensed by the State Milk Board.
