Monitoring Temperatures Sample Clauses

Monitoring Temperatures. It is mandatory that the Contractor read and record temperatures on a daily basis year round. The Contractor shall record the temperatures on the chart illustrated in attached SampleTemperature Log or a similar chart. While a monitored alarm system may be used instead of the daily check, USDA considers all losses that result from inadequate temperature control, including a monitored alarm system to be caused by negligence and, therefore, subject to a claim. If such a loss does take place, the burden of proof is on the Contractor to prove that the loss was not due to its negligence in temperature monitoring.
