         With  the  support  of the  seafood  industry, the  United  States  Food  &  Drug  Administration  has  developed  HACCP

         guidelines are required for all seafood products imported into and exported from the United States, as well as all
         seafood  products  produced  and  distributed  within  the  United  States.  This  document  is  to  certify  that  all  of
         Chesapeake  Bay  Packing,  LLC’s  processing  and  unloading  facilities  are  currently  operating  under  the  federally
         mandated HACCP requirements.

         by the United States Food & Drug Administration (CFN #1123349); the Virginia Department of Health Division of
         Shellfish Sanitation (#1147 RP); and the United States Department of Commerce Seafood Inspection Program (EU
