A partir de hoy, todas las inspecciones de productos orgánicos del CCOF que se realicen en Estados Unidos quedan aplazadas. con excepción de los necesarios para nuevas certificaciones con producción en un plazo de 60 días (i.e., new applications, add acreages, new facilities). Inspections for new certifications supports essential business infrastructure for our clients. These inspections may occur under the following conditions:
- Inspectors and clients are both willing and healthy.
- Social distancing measures are taken; no direct human contact. Follow the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended precautions.
- The inspection is a virtual and on-site hybrid.
- Farms: Inspectors inspect the field alone and meet virtually with client for records and Organic System Plan (OSP) review.
- Handler facilities: Inspectors minimize time indoors and practice social distancing.
Longer term, CCOF is developing contingencies for full hybrid or virtual inspections, and may eventually enable annual inspections to resume using hybrid and/or virtual methods.
In Mexico, CCOF is unaware of any existing shelter-in-place orders, and inspections are being conducted at the discretion of the client and inspector.
