"Milk Processing Plant" means a place, premises, or establishment where milk or milk products are collected, handled, processed, stored, bottled, pasteurized, aseptically processed, or prepared for distribution, except an establishment that merely receives the processed milk products and serves them or sells them at retail.

A milk processing plant must obtain an annual milk processing plant license. A milk processing plant may choose to process (1) grade A milk and milk products, or (2) other milk products that are not classified grade A. Only one license may be required to process milk; however, milk processing plants must obtain the necessary endorsements from the department in order to process products as defined for each type of milk or milk product processing.
