Hello all!
I have been working with my facilities EM program and trying to learn as much as possible about setting limits for zone 1,2,3. Historically we have had the same limits for years and years. I am trying to create a baseline and cross reference it with similar facilities. Unfortunately, it seems this information is quite coveted and I was hoping to shine some light on this topic. Would anyone be able to direct me to a thread or source where many different types of production facilities have their zone limits set at?
I am working at a nutraceutical facility so most of the resources referencing food production are not applicable and we handle materials with a very high microbial load. That being said, APC limits are set at 100 for zone 1,2 and 3. I have about 2 years worth of "before sanitation" (after production but before cleaning) data and 8 months of "after sanitation" data. What is the best method for adjusting my baseline?
Thank you for all the help!
