A NEW FEDERAL PROPOSAL WOULD CAUSE BEER BREWERIES TO DUMP GRAINS INTO LANDFILLS, RATHER THAN SELLING THE PRODUCT AS ANIMAL FEED. THE FDA LABELED THE NEW PROPOSAL AS APART OF A NEW, BROAD MODERNIZATION OF FOOD SAFETY FOR LIVESTOCK FEED, AND PET FOOD MANUFACTURERS. A NUMBER OF BREW MASTERS SAY THE PROPOSED NEW RULES, IF APPROVED, COULD BE QUITE COSTLY FOR BEER BREWERS.
