NJ S920

Creates a raw milk permit program in New Jersey administered by the Department of Agriculture in consultation with the Department of Health, allowing permitted farms to sell unpasteurized milk directly to consumers on-site.

Requires permit holders to display warning labels on all containers and post signs stating "Raw Milk Is Not Pasteurized and May Contain Organisms that Cause Human Disease" in letters at least one inch high.

Establishes strict quality standards requiring raw milk to contain no more than 10,000 bacteria colonies per milliliter, 10 coliforms per milliliter, and 300,000 somatic cells per milliliter, with bimonthly independent laboratory testing at the farmer's expense.

Mandates cattle health testing for tuberculosis, brucellosis, and Johnes disease, and prohibits use of growth hormones in raw milk production through a signed affidavit requirement.

Imposes suspension and revocation penalties for non-compliance: two consecutive failed tests trigger suspension, and two suspensions within one year result in permit revocation.
