The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) was designed to make government operations more transparent to the public. Sometimes, it actually works.

Other times, not so much.

We obtained the files on this page through FOIA requests. They are in their original format except for the documents that were received as PDF files or CSV files. Those have been converted to XLS files just to make them easier to work with. No other modifications have been made.

USDA Noncompliance Records (NRs)

You will need this PDF of relevant sections of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) to understand the violated regulations in these files
