Milk shipment curbs issued by Frederick health officer
About five Frederick county milk shippers sending surplus milk to Baltimore and Washington have been directed to stop. Five dairymen shipping only to Frederick were told they cannot do so due to unmet state dairy standards and a city ordinance. There are about 148 dairymen shipping into Frederick. Permits have been suspended for those exporting surplus milk to other cities as a safeguard against excess supply during hot weather and potential bacterial rise.
