Puget Sound MeatOPERATING POLICIES
Scheduling
Scheduling of animals is necessary for the PSMPC in order to provide for consistent reliable services to our Members.
Scheduling is encouraged two (2) or more weeks in advance of operations. Scheduling will continue up until the day prior to scheduled operations, on a space available basis.
Unscheduled animals delivered to operations may be done on a time available basis, and will be subject to USDA overtime charges for that day.
Cancellations
Twenty four (24) hours notice is required for cancellations.
No shows will be charged 50% of scheduled charges with less than 24 hours notice.
A waiver of this fee may be requested from the Board of Directors.
The Board will consider extenuating circumstances when reviewing any waiver request. Such request must be presented in person or in writing.
Payment
Payment is expected on the day of operations. Members may be invoiced for services. Invoices are required to be paid within two (2) weeks. Additional services will not be offered for accounts past due.
Operational Sites
All Operational Sites shall have a periodic review for animal containments, and Humane Handling Standards.
All Operational Sites used on a regular basis shall be added to the PSMPC insurance policy as additional Named Insured.
