From: Sandy Goettsch [SandyG@goettsch.com] Sent: Monday, August 09, 2004 1:37 PM To: fdadockets@oc.fda.gov Subject: Docket No. 2004N-0264 I am writing to ask you to please: a.. Prohibit the use of blood, poultry litter, plate waste, and ALL other animal products (with the exception of milk) in feed for all farm animals, not just ruminants. a.. Prohibit the use of downed animals, animals exhibiting signs of central nervous system disorders, "dead stock" (animals that have died on the farm), and "specified risk materials" (e.g., cow brain and spinal cord tissue) in pet food. The pet food ban is necessary because cats are known to be susceptible to BSE. Thank you, Sandy Goettsch, HR Manager GOETTSCH INTERNATIONAL, INC. http://www.goettsch.com/
