          RE:  Parasite Destruction


          All of the facilities Icy Strait Seafoods operate in have HACCP plans that are audited and approved by The
          Department of Agriculture, The Food & Drug Association and The US Department of Commerce.  Icy
          Strait Seafood’s products meets the parasite destruction requirement as described in the following
          statement.

          When we catch fish our primary processing occurs at one of our plants in Alaska.  We freeze the fish in
          Alaska and we transport the product from there to Bellingham Cold Storage in Washington State.  We
          transport the product with Alaska Marine Lines (AML), in containers set at -10 degrees Fahrenheit.  Once
          the container doors are closed, a seal is attached to the doors and they are not opened until the product is
          received at Bellingham Cold Storage.  The containers are loaded, sealed and taken to the port several days
          before transport; it takes 5 to 7 days to transport the product to Seattle and then at least several days to
          remove the container from the port and deliver it to Bellingham.  This time frame easily exceeds the 7 day
          requirement at a temperature below -4 degrees Fahrenheit.

          If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me.

          Sincerely,
