Posted on by

CHINO VALLEY – Traffic will be shifted onto the new temporary detour on the east side of State Route 89 at Road 4 North on Monday, Feb. 23. Drivers in both directions will be shifted onto the detour for the next six months as crews begin constructing the new roundabout at the intersection.

The work zone will be clearly marked by temporary barricades and signage. ADOT advises drivers to allow additional time to reach their destinations and to proceed through the work zone with caution, comply with the reduced speed limit, and be alert for construction equipment and personnel.

This $2.1 million project consists of a new roundabout at the intersection of SR 89 and Road 4 North between mileposts 330.48 and 330.78. Additional work includes removal and replacement of existing pavement, drainage improvements, new pavement markings and lighting.

This project is expected to be complete by August.

Without the benefit of full inspection, a possibility of adverse health consequences exists.

The boneless pork belly was produced on various dates from March 3, 2014 to April 11, 2014. The following product is subject to recall:

Approximately 40-lb. boxes containing 4-5 pieces of “PINI POLONA PORK BELLY BONELESS”

The products subject to recall bear the establishment number “10023802” inside the Polish mark of inspection. The products were shipped to a distributor in Texas and a processing facility in Iowa.

The problem was discovered during routine surveillance of storage facilities when an FSIS investigator observed that the products lacked USDA import inspection marks.

This is a Class I Recall which indicates a health hazard situation where there is a reasonable probability that the use of the product will cause serious, adverse health consequences or death.

FSIS and the company have received no reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about a reaction should contact a healthcare provider.
