California Food Protection Rapid Response Team Project Summary/Abstract The mission of the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), Food and Drug Branch's (FDB), Food Safety Program is to prevent and react to food and food-related problems and emergencies. We accomplish this with a combination of prevention efforts and active intervention and response throughout the entire food chain. To increase efficiency, communication, and effectiveness of investigations in response to food/feed emergencies (intentional or unintentional), CDPH in partnership with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) San Francisco and Los Angeles District Offices formed the California Food Emergency Response Team (CalFERT) in 2005. Through this proposal, our primary objective is to further develop, implement, maintain and sustain a multi-jurisdictional rapid response team (i.e., CalFERT) and California's ability to rapidly respond to food and feed emergencies. The proposal's Research Strategy as described addresses the six program objectives and yearly milestones, listed in this funding opportunity, in accordance with the Rapid Response Team Program 5 Year Plan. Accomplishing the objectives entails sustaining two existing Rapid Response Team (RRT) positions under this grant to allow for uninterrupted continuation of RRT activities; strenghtening the program's ability to conduct investigations and exercises employing Incident Command System (ICS); continuing development and enhancement of CalFERT protocols including environmental assessments and environmental sampling; enhancing data capturing techniques and analytical approaches; purchasing additional sampling equipment and supplies in support of responses; introducing new specialized trainings on specific commodities and contamination sources; strengthening interagency collaboration, cooperation, coordination and communication with partners and stakeholders. Accordingly, we are requesting $300,000 in grant funds for each of the next three years. This would augment current CDPH capabilities and facilitate long-term improvements necessary to conduct environmental investigations, tracebacks, and enforcement activities during food and feed emergencies. Funding would also allow for critical trainings to sharpen internal skill set, improve the availability of critical resources, improve on post response and prevention activities, advance succession planning, and sustain CalFERT beyond this new grant period. CalFERT readiness to act in emergencies is critical. California is the nation's largest producer of many important agricultural commodities including leafy greens, fruit, vegetable, and nut crops. A crisis impacting those commodities would negatively impact millions of consumers in California, the nation, and the world. The economic impact of such food emergencies can cost hundreds of millions of dollars due to decreased demands for food commodities because of loss of consumer confidence in the food supply.

加利福尼亚食品保护快速响应团队 项目摘要/摘要 加利福尼亚公共卫生部（CDPH），食品和药品分支机构（FDB）的任务，食品 安全计划是为了预防和应对与食物有关的问题和紧急情况。我们 通过预防努力和积极干预和响应的结合来实现这一目标 整个食物链。 提高调查对食物/饲料的效率，沟通和有效性 紧急情况（故意或无意），与美国食品和药物合作的CDPH 政府（FDA）旧金山和洛杉矶地区办事处成立了加利福尼亚食品 紧急响应小组（CALFERT）于2005年。 通过这项建议，我们的主要目标是进一步发展，实施，维护和维持 多界数字快速响应小组（即CALFERT）和加利福尼亚快速反应食物的能力 和饲料紧急情况。所述提案的研究策略解决了六个计划 目标和年度里程碑，在此资助机会中列出，根据快速 响应团队计划5年计划。 实现目标需要维持两个现有的快速响应小组（RRT）职位 根据这项赠款，允许RRT活动的不间断延续；策划该程序的 使用事件指挥系统（ICS）进行调查和锻炼的能力；继续 开发和增强COLFERT协议，包括环境评估和 环境抽样；增强数据捕获技术和分析方法；购买 其他采样设备和供应以支持响应；介绍新的专业 对特定商品和污染源的培训；加强机构间协作， 与合作伙伴和利益相关者的合作，协调和沟通。 因此，我们要求在接下来的三年中为每一年提供30万美元的赠款资金。这会 增强当前的CDPH功能，并促进进行长期改进 食物和饲料紧急情况期间的环境调查，追溯和执法活动。 资金还将允许进行关键的培训来提高内部技能，提高可用性 关键资源，改善后响应和预防活动，提前继承计划以及 在这个新的赠款期之外维持calfert。 在紧急情况下准备采取行动是至关重要的。加利福尼亚是美国最大的生产国 重要的农产品，包括绿叶蔬菜，水果，蔬菜和坚果作物。危机 影响这些商品会对加利福尼亚州，国家和 世界。此类紧急情况的经济影响可能会花费数亿美元 由于消费者对粮食供应的信心丧失，对食品商品的需求减少。
