School Union 74 schools were recipients of government beef that has been recalled, as were most schools in Maine. The Union has followed instructions that this beef not be served again, and it has not been served since the day of the notification, January 30. Disposal instructions have now been received and these have been followed as well.
School Union 74 received this message from the U.S. Department of Agriculture on February 22:
A Message From the U.S. Department of Agriculture
This is to inform you of the actions undertaken by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) as a result of the ongoing investigation of the Hallmark/Westland Meat Packing Company. Upon notification of possible violations of Federal regulations, USDA suspended the operation of Hallmark/Westland Meat Packing Company. All beef products produced by this company dating back to February 1, 2006, have been recalled. The products destined for the National School Lunch Program must be removed from schools and other holding facilities and destroyed.
