Low lighting in the gizzard-peeling area that prevents an establishment worker from inspecting the product would constitute noncompliance with which FSIS standard?

Explanation:
Ensuring a sanitary processing environment includes having adequate visibility so inspectors and staff can see and assess the product. The ventilation standard covers environmental conditions that affect proper inspection and sanitation, including factors like lighting and visibility in processing areas. When lighting is too low to inspect the gizzards properly, it prevents meeting that environmental/visibility requirement, so the violation points to the ventilation standard. The other standards focus on general sanitation, equipment cleanliness, or the prescriptive nature of SPS, which don’t address the visibility issue in this scenario.
