The sanitary transportation rule builds on existing regulations and establishes requirements that transporters use sanitary practices to ensure the safety of food. The rule creates requirements for shippers, loaders, carriers by motor or rail vehicle, and receivers involved in transporting human food. The rule does not apply to transportation by ship or air.
