  1. Food Advisory Committee Meeting Risk Ranking and Risk Prioritization Chemical Contaminants September 29-30, 2014 Nega Beru, Ph.D. Director, Office of Food Safety FDA/Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition

  2. Charge to the FAC • The FAC is requested to provide FDA input into the development of the characteristics for data collection and risk ranking/prioritization models. • The characteristics would be useful in framing the fundamental elements needed to design or evaluate these programs

  3. Questions to the FAC • What factors, considerations or criteria need to be considered when selecting which food/contaminant pair to sample and test? • In the development of models to identify and rank priorities, what factors/criteria need to be considered when “aggregating” or binning foods? Chemical contaminants?

  4. Questions to the FAC • When using a risk scoring process, what factors/criteria should be considered in deciding where to draw the line – higher vs lower risk? • What factors should be considered when establishing the frequency and duration of testing certain chemical compounds? • What factors should be considered in deciding to continue vs end testing?

  5. Questions for the FAC • What factors should be considered where (geographic location or farm to fork food supply continuum) samples should be taken for testing?

  6. FDA Compliance Programs • Pesticides and industrial chemicals in domestic and imported foods • Toxic elements in imported and domestic food and foodware • Mycotoxins in domestic and imported foods • Chemotherapeutics in seafood

  7. Other Surveillance Programs • FDA Total Diet Study • Ongoing program surveillance program for various contaminants and nutrients in foods • USDA/FSIS National Residue Program • Current focus on veterinary drugs and pesticides in meat, poultry and egg products – plan to expand program to other chemical hazards

  8. Models • Model developed for determining the most significant foodborne contaminants – FSMA Section 104: Performance Standards • High risk foods model – FSMA Section 204: designation of high risk foods • Logit model to rank chemicals and group in “bins”
