Which of the following statements describes holding in FSIS terms?

Holding is the practice of placing product in a controlled area with restricted access so no further processing or distribution occurs while a problem is evaluated and a disposition is decided (such as release, rework, condemnation, or destruction). This safeguards against releasing or further processing potentially nonconforming product while decisions are made. It’s not simply labeling as ready for distribution, it doesn’t imply immediate processing, and it isn’t limited to raw materials.
