Montana SB415 revises milk labeling laws, requiring "best by" dates and prohibiting new rules.
Montana SB415 revises milk laws by mandating that milk processors establish a "best by" date on milk containers. This date indicates the number of days after pasteurization that the milk should remain fresh, healthful, and safe. The bill also requires these dates to be displayed in Arabic numerals or standard abbreviations and in a contrasting color. It prohibits the Department of Livestock from adopting new rules related to these labeling requirements and mandates the amendment of existing rules to eliminate the definition of a "sell by" date.
