    Communication with field staff spotty due to poor cell service and land lines being down. DoAg staff are conductinginspections of milk processors and other entities that rely on refrigeration to ensure product temperatures are

    maintained at a safe level and that process controls are not compromised when power is restored.

    Communications at Guida has been restored, they are able to take orders. Load out is slowed due to lack of power to

    charge fork lift batteries. Inventory of product including school size 8oz is adequate for demand right now. If the

    facility cannot get the manufacturing side running they will run out . Co-packers in Syracuse NY and Maine are

    bottling but this far from ideal due to distance and capacity.

    Deliveries from dairy farms is disrupted throughout southern New England and southeast NY as the result of Guida

    being down, diverted milk is being handled and made into powder at the Agri-Mark West Springfield facility.

    DoAg staff are conducting inspections of milk processors and other entities that rely on refrigeration to ensureproduct temperatures are maintained at a safe level and that process controls are not compromised when power is
