Abstract: The economic impacts of a proposed result to standardize the maximum linespeeds for the inspection of young chickens were assessed. Eight options were evaluated to determine the one that would have the least burden on plants in the industry and the Food Safety and Quality Service (FSQS). Impacts analyzed included those on Federal inspector employment and costs, plant linespeeds and labor productivity and costs, plant employment, length of work week, and processing capacity. This impact statement was prepared for Food Safety and Quality Service as part of the regulatory review requirements.
