Store each lot in the container it arrived in. KEEP THE TAG WITH THE CONTAINER. DO NOT MIX LOTS.
If there are just a few left from the last shipment, you cannot put them in with the new lot.
You may need to remove shellfish from the original container in order to prepare portions for a service or for retail display. When you do this, make a copy of the tag; so that you know which lot you are serving or selling from at each service. Again, shellfish from different lots may not be mingled together. If you pre-portion – for example, put three or four clams in a container for an appetizer – you must develop a system to show which lot these portions were taken from.

On the day the last clam, oyster etc. from a lot is sold, take the tag and write that date on it. File it in a calendar pocket folder and keep it for 90 days. Other filing systems, such as a binder, are also acceptable.
