Rule 32.9.431 - STORAGE OF FINISHED PRODUCT(1) Dry storage must be stored at least 18 inches from the wall in aisles, rows, or sections and lots, in such a manner as to be orderly and easily accessible for inspection. Rooms should be cleaned regularly. It is recommended that dunnage or pallets be used when practical. Care must be taken in the storage of any other product foreign to dairy products in the same room, in order to prevent impairment or damage to the dairy product from mold, absorbed odors, or vermin or insect infestation. Control of humidity and temperature must be maintained at all times, consistent with good commercial practices, to prevent conditions detrimental to the product and container.(2) Finished products requiring refrigerated storage must be placed on shelves, dunnage or pallets and properly identified. They must be stored under temperatures that will best maintain the initial quality. The products may not be exposed to anything from which they might absorb any foreign odors or be contaminated by drippage or condensation.Secs. 81-2-102, 81-22-102 MCA; IMP, Secs. 81-2-102, 81-22-102 MCA;
