Division L.5.2.1 Silos not accessible from above (closed silos) with individual sizes > 100 tonnesF1

United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

Food stored in such silos cannot be sampled in a static way. Therefore when the food in the silo has to be sampled and there is no possibility to move the consignment, the agreement has to be made with the operator that he or she has to inform the inspector about when the silo will be unloaded, partially or completely, in order to enable sampling when the food is in flow.
