Manufacturing and Producing in the USA - Creating and Producing The World's
Best Products Locally while Competing Globally
Presenter: Jake Nichol
CEO and President, The Leatherman Tool Group (Retired)
When Jake Nichol joined the Leatherman Tool Group as CEO and President, he made a commitment
to Leatherman’s employees to keep jobs here in the U.S. For Nichol, whose career had included his
leadership at Stanley Tools and Danaher (manufacturer of Sears Craftsman tools), taking over the
reins of Leatherman paved the road back home to the Northwest.
In order to compete with companies that look east toward China or south toward Mexico to save money
and cut costs, Nichol challenged his teams to rethink every aspect of manufacturing process, without
sacrificing quality or innovation. Under Nichol’s leadership in an extremely competitive industry, the
Leatherman Tool Group grew 2.5 times in size and revenue.

MONDAY
EDUCATIONAL
SESSIONS
Accessing Credit: What You Need To Know
10:00 AM to 11:30 AM • Rm D135 • Business
Target Audience: Owners, Presidents, CEO’s and CFO’s
Presenter: Casey Garten, SVP, Agribusiness Region Manager,
Bank of the West
One of the greatest concerns owners have relative to building
their business is accessing debt capital for growth. This
informative session will provide a perspective on what financial
services firms evaluate and underwrite. It may not be what
you think. We examine why “the people” are the key to every
successful relationship and why they come before “the
financials.” People = character, experience, track record, and
handling good cycles and bad. This session explores the impact
of credit cycles, credit philosophy, credit offerings, credibility,
time frames, and deliverables.
A “No Compromise” Approach to Engineering
and Operations That Maximizes Profitability,
Productivity and Safety
10:00 AM to 11:30 AM • Rm D136 • Emerging Technology
Target Audience: Project Managers, Production Managers,
Maintenance Managers, QA Managers and Supply
Chain Managers.
Presenter: Russ Johnson, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Engineering
and Technology Management, Washington State University
Managers and employees often feel caught in a conflict
between maximizing profitability and ensuring the safety of our
customers, employees and equipment. Failure to develop an
approach that accomplishes both of these requirements results
in compromises that can have catastrophic outcomes. This
conflict continues in spite of increasing mandates on safety
(internal guidelines, GMP, USDA, OSHA, etc.). This presentation
looks at the dynamics of this conflict and, through a variety of
hands-on activities, we challenge the underlying assumptions
that have blocked us from solving it. With this new understand-
ing we can develop solutions that maximize profitability and
safety without compromise to either. This new understanding
will also show how to ensure our Six-Sigma, Lean and other
improvement initiatives no longer fail to deliver the
promised results.
How might climate change, variability and
risk affect agricultural production and food
processing in the Pacific Northwest?
10:00 AM to 11:30 AM • Rm D137/138 • Sustainability
Target Audience: Energy, Environmental, Sustainability,
Operations, Government Affairs, Corporate Managers,
Directors and personnel
Presenter: Chad Kruger, Director, Washington State University
Center for Sustaining Agriculture & Natural Resources (CSANR)
For the past decade, regional scientists have been developing
and testing tools to evaluate the potential impact of climate
change, variability and risk on PNW agricultural systems. Impacts
assessed include likely effects on yields of 40 important regional
crops, irrigation water supply, and crop protection. In this
session, Chad Kruger will describe these assessment tools and
demonstrate how to interpret the results in order to support
planning, investment and management decisions for future
agriculture and food processing considerations. The session will
conclude with a discussion on future research priorities and
questions from the perspective of food processors that can be
the basis for future research projects.
2015 Food Safety Modernization Update
10:00 AM to 11:30 AM • Rm E139/140 • Operations &
Technical Affairs
Target Audience: All personnel with responsibility for food
safety and compliance including CEO’s, Plant Management,
Technical Affairs, Quality Assurance/Control, and
Regulatory Affairs
Presenters: Miriam Burbach, District Director, FDA Seattle
District; Donna Garren, Ph.D., Vice President Regulatory and
Technical Affairs AFFI; Stephanie Page, Director for Food Safety
and Animal Health and Identification, State of Oregon
2015 will mark the wrap-up of rule development and the
beginning of the implementation phase for the Food Safety
Modernization Act. The FDA is devising both operations and
cultural changes to their inspection and enforcement protocols,
including more integration with state agencies. This session
will explore the FDA’s operations strategy for implementing
FSMA, including state integration and what this means for
food processors.

Presenters: Tim Kennedy, Founder, Tim’s Cascade Snacks; Sue
Wagner Sanders, President, Desserts of Distinction; Tom
Gillpatrick, Executive Director, Portland State University Food
Industry Leadership Center
With growth and success come hard decisions. Often, the
difference between success and failure lies in your ability to
recognize these key moments as they arise and leverage the
inevitable transitions that follow. Successfully managing your
company through key transitions requires preparation-
whether you’re considering your first, major capital expense or
reparing for the sale of your company. Panelists offer firsthand
experience and practical strategies to optimize these transitions.

Taxes and Labeling: 2015 Northwest
Food Policy
1:00 PM to 2:30 PM • Rm 136 • Government Affairs
Target Audience: CEO’s, Executives, Operations Managers and

Presenter: Bruce Prengruber, President, Globalwise, Inc.
Taxes - Tax exemptions spur economic development: The
Machinery and Equipment (M&E) property tax exemption in
Oregon and the Business and Occupation (B&O) tax exemption
in Washington help the food processing industry thrive in both
states. It will be important to allow bakeries, dairies and egg
processors in Oregon to use the M&E tax exemption and to
extend the life of the B&O tax exemption in Washington. Get a
detailed look at tax exemptions, and learn what the NWFPA is
doing to guarantee their availability in the future.
GMO - In 2012, California rejected Proposition 37, and in 2013,
Washington defeated I-522. In 2014, Oregon was the latest
state to ask voters if food produced with genetically modified
organisms (GMOs) should be labeled. Although this initiative was
narrowly defeated, hear firsthand what worked and what didn't.
Find out what to expect in Oregon’s 2015 legislative session.
Northwest Food Workforce & Education
Forum: Innovative Workforce Training
Models to Serve Industry Training Needs
3:00 PM to 4:30PM • Rm D135 • Business
Target Audience: Owners, Human Resource Professionals,
Education Providers, General Managers
Presenters: Denis Green, Professor, Linn Benton Community
College; Daniel Koopman, Ed.S., M.Ed., Associate VP of Instruc-
tion, Director of Career Services, Perry Technical Institute; Janet
Steele, President, Albany Area Chamber of Commerce
As the Baby Boomer retirement tsunami gathers speed and
power, the food processing industry faces significant challenges
in educating, recruiting and training replacements for many of
the longest-tenured and most valued employees and managers.
An additional challenge is in attracting skilled workers to more
remote regions, and competing with talent recruitment at
technology server farms moving into rural areas. During this
timely panel discussion, the Northwest’s leading educators and
food industry professionals will discuss innovative models used
to improve the workforce status of the industry in Oregon,
Washington and Idaho. They will also suggest opportunities for
collaboration and partnerships between vocational, industry,
workforce and education professionals.

Getting the Most Out of Your IT Investment
3:00 PM to 4:30 PM • Rm D136 • Emerging Technology
Target Audience: CIO’s, CFO’s, CTO’s, Technology Professionals
, Business Development
Presenters: Lance Kidd, Manager, IT, Oregon Freeze Dry, and
Manoj Garg, Founder, Managing Partner and CIO of Virtual
Information Executives
Information Technology (IT) spending in the food processing
industry continues to rise while the tangible return on that
investment often remains elusive for many small and mid-sized
businesses. Forcing IT into a “back office” support function
mentality is not only futile, it ignores what is arguably your best
tool for increasing revenue, reducing cost and improving
operational efficiency. Inviting IT to the table as a strategic
partner within your business will bring value to sales and
customer satisfaction, food safety, shop floor control, new
products and supply chain management.

Creating a Culture of Food Safety: It Starts in the Boardroom
Presenter: Paula Marshall
CEO, The Bama Companies
Paula Marshall has worked in the boardroom, on the line and in conjunction with customers to create a
corporate culture that balances corporate growth and an evolving food safety culture. As the CEO of a
$300 million, privately held food manufacturer, Marshall maintains her commitment to two key
principles: ensuring quality and taking care of people.
Marshall’s commitment to quality has been a driving force behind the company’s continued success.
Bama’s achievements have been acknowledged on multiple occasions including the Malcolm Baldridge
National Quality Award from the U.S. Department of Commerce and the McDonald's USA National
Quality Supplier Award, McDonald's USA top honor for quality. Under Marshall’s leadership, the company
continues to grow and expand. In recent years, Bama has developed four processing facilities in China,
which serve all of Asia, and on September 23, 2014, Bama marked their entry into the European market
with the opening of their newest facility in Poland.
In addition to her roles as CEO for Bama Companies, Marshall served as a Director of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, National
Association. Marshall received her Bachelor of Science in Business from Oklahoma City University (OCU) in 1982, and her Ph.D. in
Commercial Science, also from OCU, in 1993.

10:00 AM to 11:30 AM • Rm D135 • Emerging Technology
Target Audience: Owners, Supply Chain Managers, Purchasing
Managers, Buyers, Operations Managers, R&D Managers
Presenter: Jon Marshall, Innovation Frameworks, Dave Davidson,
Consultant, Oregon Manufacturing Extension Partners, and Deloit
Wolfe, Director of Marketing and Business Development, Impact
Washington, Washington Manufacturing Extension Partner
Leveraging the knowledge, experience and creativity of your
supply chain is key to creating even more value in your product.

Put Better/Healthcare/Cheaper in a Sentence
10:00 AM to 11:30 AM • Rm 136 • Business
Target Audience: CEO’s, CFO’s, COO’s, Human Resources
and Benefits Managers
Presenters: Dr. Jim Johnson, Board Certified
Occupational Medicine physician, and CEO, AnovaWorks
The spiraling costs and decreasing quality of insurance-code
healthcare have sparked a search for increased value and better
quality by employers for their employees. Direct-pay, onsite
healthcare is an option that avoids the cost and complexity of
the insurance code system. It increases the access and efficiency
of healthcare delivery, allows effective wellness programs, and
disengages the employer from the costs of expensive
infrastructure in big box medicine. Supported by business
examples from the Pacific Northwest, this presentation will
show an alternative pathway to employee healthcare, one
that improves the productivity of the workforce.
Air Odor/Good Neighbor Agreement
10:00 AM to 11:30 AM • Rm D137/138 • Sustainability
Target Audience: Owners, Environmental Managers,
Public Relations Managers, Legal Council, General Managers,
Compliance Officers
Presenters: Nina DeConcini, Northwest Region Administrator,
Oregon DEQ; Bryan Smith, Air Quality Business Assistance
Program Coordinator, Oregon DEQ and Thomas R. Wood, Stoel
Rives, LLP
Are you being a good neighbor? Stronger nuisance odor rules
and the recent move to fine the Sriracha plant in California have
food processors questioning “Who’s Next?” While odor is
subjective and complaints are questionable, the potential for
investigation is daunting. Good Neighbor Agreements provide
an opportunity for food processors to proactively mitigate local
fears and educate the communities in which they operate about
business processes and activities. This panel will provide
guidance on how to happily coexist with neighbors.
The Food Safety Culture: Building a Roadmap
To Better Compliance
10:00 AM to 11:30 AM • Room D139/140 • Operations
& Technical Affairs
Target Audience: All personnel with responsibility for food safety
and compliance, including CEO’s/CFSO’s, Plant
Management, Technical Affairs, Quality Assurance/Control
and Regulatory Affairs
Presenters: Richard Dougherty, Ph.D., Consultant – Training and
Assistance for the Food Industries; Dean Stearman, TALO Advisors
Food Safety Culture – it’s essential to a reliable food safety system,
but how do you know if your efforts to build a strong one are
working? Does your leadership and do your employees align around
your food safety priorities? What about the culture of your suppliers?
Do you have the tools to measure, improve and document your
culture to regulators or your customers? What will it mean for your
company and NWFPA to be proactive and create a clear definition of
‘food safety culture’ now vs. responding to the FDA’s definition,
still unresolved?
Following the general session on “Creating a Culture of Food Safety”
with Bama Foods CEO Paula Marshall, Dean Stearman and Dick
Dougherty will explore the nuts and bolts of building the food safety
culture. They will discuss the future of food safety culture as the
foundation of food safety systems and the organizational behavior
theory that identifies barriers to achieving your food safety goals.
Tools and a case study to identify gaps in cultural alignment and
build a roadmap for cultural growth will be presented.

Salinity Management for Sustainable Water Resources
10:45 AM to 11:05 AM • Expo Hall Forum
Presenter: Joseph LeClaire, CDM Smith
Process water treatment and reuse have become all the more important as western U.S. states face continued drought and more
stringent water resource quality requirements. CV-SALTS is conducting the Strategic Salt Accumulation Land and Transportation Study
(SSALTS). The findings will be used to establish regional salt management policies to facilitate salt disposal in a manner that is most
beneficial to the region and consistent with the State Water Resource Control Board Recycled Water Policy. This presentation presents
key findings and issues that are important for NWFPA members to know and possibly anticipate for the Pacific Northwest.
Innovative Dry Lubricant Increases Sustainability Practices
11:10 AM to 11:30 AM • Expo Hall Forum
Presenter: Ross Shepard, CEO Shepard Bros., Inc.
In the food and beverage industry, it is common for a water/biocide/soap mixture to be applied as a lubricant to conveyor belts. This not
only contributes to a manufacturing plant’s water footprint, but also causes microbiological growth, corrosion, wet and slippery floors,
and soggy and damaged boxes. In a recent three-month case study at a large bottling facility, a novel dry lubricant (Propel STTM) faced
a standard water-based lubricant to determine the water conservation benefits. This study demonstrated that utilizing a dry lube such
as the one used in this trial significantly reduces the amount of water consumption in a food and beverage processing facility and
establishes preventative control for bacterial growth on conveyor belts.
Absorb the latest ACA updates
1:20 PM to 1:40 PM • Expo Hall Forum
Presenter: Alicia Scalzo Wilmoth, National Practice Leader - Health & Welfare Compliance, USI/Kibble & Prentice
Get the latest updates on the Affordable Care Act and what employers need to be addressing with regard to their employee benefit
health & welfare plans. As the national practice lead for health & welfare compliance, Alicia has guided thousands of companies and
organizations through this change throughout the past five years. During this session, we will touch on employer reporting, and what
you need to know, as well as reinsurance payments, and any other updates that have been announced recently.
Dynamic Inventory Management for Maximum Profit
1:45 PM to 2:05 PM • Expo Hall Forum
Presenter: Rick Pay, Principal, The R. PAY COMPANY, LLC
Many companies, both manufacturers and distributors, have very low inventory turns, due in part to slow-moving or obsolete inventory.
Ramp Up is the process of introducing new products into the inventory system in a controlled way. Ramp Down is the process of
recognizing that certain products or parts are going to be superseded and must be reduced. This requires, in part, an actively engaged
materials or purchasing group to oversee the process and maintain communication with sales and new product development. This
presentation examines techniques for Ramp Up/Ramp Down inventory management with an eye toward creating alignment between
speed, value, quality, and cost to deliver the best possible product to the customer.
Update on California Prop 65 and Green Chemistry Regulations
2:10 PM to 2:30 PM • Expo Hall Forum
Presenter: Lee Smith, Partner, Perkins, Mann & Everett
Prop 65 is the regulatory process in California that requires manufacturers (and food producers) to label their product under certain
circumstances if they contain chemicals listed by the state as carcinogenic or mutagenic. The circumstances of when a food product
requires labeling will be discussed. Additionally, the state has proposed new regulations that affect the manner in which warnings are to
be given and under what circumstances. The proposed rules, which may be final by the Expo and Conference 2015, will be discussed as
well as their ramifications to producers. The Green Chemistry regulations will also be discussed. These rules require that products with
certain identified "hazardous" chemicals be reformulated to exclude the chemicals or explain why they cannot be taken out.

  • 15. MONDAYSESSIONS 15 MONDAY EDUCATIONAL SESSIONS Accessing Credit: What You Need To Know 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM • Rm D135 • Business Target Audience: Owners, Presidents, CEO’s and CFO’s Presenter: Casey Garten, SVP, Agribusiness Region Manager, Bank of the West One of the greatest concerns owners have relative to building their business is accessing debt capital for growth. This informative session will provide a perspective on what financial services firms evaluate and underwrite. It may not be what you think. We examine why “the people” are the key to every successful relationship and why they come before “the financials.” People = character, experience, track record, and handling good cycles and bad. This session explores the impact of credit cycles, credit philosophy, credit offerings, credibility, time frames, and deliverables. A “No Compromise” Approach to Engineering and Operations That Maximizes Profitability, Productivity and Safety 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM • Rm D136 • Emerging Technology Target Audience: Project Managers, Production Managers, Maintenance Managers, QA Managers and Supply Chain Managers. Presenter: Russ Johnson, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Engineering and Technology Management, Washington State University Managers and employees often feel caught in a conflict between maximizing profitability and ensuring the safety of our customers, employees and equipment. Failure to develop an approach that accomplishes both of these requirements results in compromises that can have catastrophic outcomes. This conflict continues in spite of increasing mandates on safety (internal guidelines, GMP, USDA, OSHA, etc.). This presentation looks at the dynamics of this conflict and, through a variety of hands-on activities, we challenge the underlying assumptions that have blocked us from solving it. With this new understand- ing we can develop solutions that maximize profitability and safety without compromise to either. This new understanding will also show how to ensure our Six-Sigma, Lean and other improvement initiatives no longer fail to deliver the promised results. How might climate change, variability and risk affect agricultural production and food processing in the Pacific Northwest? 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM • Rm D137/138 • Sustainability Target Audience: Energy, Environmental, Sustainability, Operations, Government Affairs, Corporate Managers, Directors and personnel Presenter: Chad Kruger, Director, Washington State University Center for Sustaining Agriculture & Natural Resources (CSANR) For the past decade, regional scientists have been developing and testing tools to evaluate the potential impact of climate change, variability and risk on PNW agricultural systems. Impacts assessed include likely effects on yields of 40 important regional crops, irrigation water supply, and crop protection. In this session, Chad Kruger will describe these assessment tools and demonstrate how to interpret the results in order to support planning, investment and management decisions for future agriculture and food processing considerations. The session will conclude with a discussion on future research priorities and questions from the perspective of food processors that can be the basis for future research projects. 2015 Food Safety Modernization Update 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM • Rm E139/140 • Operations & Technical Affairs Target Audience: All personnel with responsibility for food safety and compliance including CEO’s, Plant Management, Technical Affairs, Quality Assurance/Control, and Regulatory Affairs Presenters: Miriam Burbach, District Director, FDA Seattle District; Donna Garren, Ph.D., Vice President Regulatory and Technical Affairs AFFI; Stephanie Page, Director for Food Safety and Animal Health and Identification, State of Oregon 2015 will mark the wrap-up of rule development and the beginning of the implementation phase for the Food Safety Modernization Act. The FDA is devising both operations and cultural changes to their inspection and enforcement protocols, including more integration with state agencies. This session will explore the FDA’s operations strategy for implementing FSMA, including state integration and what this means for food processors.

  • 18. TUESDAY BREAKFAST KEYNOTE January 13 • 7:30 AM to 9:30 AM • General Session with Breakfast ($40 fee) Creating a Culture of Food Safety: It Starts in the Boardroom Presenter: Paula Marshall CEO, The Bama Companies Paula Marshall has worked in the boardroom, on the line and in conjunction with customers to create a corporate culture that balances corporate growth and an evolving food safety culture. As the CEO of a $300 million, privately held food manufacturer, Marshall maintains her commitment to two key principles: ensuring quality and taking care of people. Marshall’s commitment to quality has been a driving force behind the company’s continued success. Bama’s achievements have been acknowledged on multiple occasions including the Malcolm Baldridge National Quality Award from the U.S. Department of Commerce and the McDonald's USA National Quality Supplier Award, McDonald's USA top honor for quality. Under Marshall’s leadership, the company continues to grow and expand. In recent years, Bama has developed four processing facilities in China, which serve all of Asia, and on September 23, 2014, Bama marked their entry into the European market with the opening of their newest facility in Poland. In addition to her roles as CEO for Bama Companies, Marshall served as a Director of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, National Association.

A panel of food processors reveal the secrets to successful and significant collaboration. Attend, listen, ask questions and get inspired by industry peers. Put Better/Healthcare/Cheaper in a Sentence 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM • Rm 136 • Business Target Audience: CEO’s, CFO’s, COO’s, Human Resources and Benefits Managers Presenters: Dr. Jim Johnson, Board Certified Occupational Medicine physician, and CEO, AnovaWorks The spiraling costs and decreasing quality of insurance-code healthcare have sparked a search for increased value and better quality by employers for their employees. Direct-pay, onsite healthcare is an option that avoids the cost and complexity of the insurance code system. It increases the access and efficiency of healthcare delivery, allows effective wellness programs, and disengages the employer from the costs of expensive infrastructure in big box medicine. Supported by business examples from the Pacific Northwest, this presentation will show an alternative pathway to employee healthcare, one that improves the productivity of the workforce. Air Odor/Good Neighbor Agreement 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM • Rm D137/138 • Sustainability Target Audience: Owners, Environmental Managers, Public Relations Managers, Legal Council, General Managers, Compliance Officers Presenters: Nina DeConcini, Northwest Region Administrator, Oregon DEQ; Bryan Smith, Air Quality Business Assistance Program Coordinator, Oregon DEQ and Thomas R. Wood, Stoel Rives, LLP Are you being a good neighbor? Stronger nuisance odor rules and the recent move to fine the Sriracha plant in California have food processors questioning “Who’s Next?” While odor is subjective and complaints are questionable, the potential for investigation is daunting. Good Neighbor Agreements provide an opportunity for food processors to proactively mitigate local fears and educate the communities in which they operate about business processes and activities. This panel will provide guidance on how to happily coexist with neighbors. The Food Safety Culture: Building a Roadmap To Better Compliance 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM • Room D139/140 • Operations & Technical Affairs Target Audience: All personnel with responsibility for food safety and compliance, including CEO’s/CFSO’s, Plant Management, Technical Affairs, Quality Assurance/Control and Regulatory Affairs Presenters: Richard Dougherty, Ph.D., Consultant – Training and Assistance for the Food Industries; Dean Stearman, TALO Advisors Food Safety Culture – it’s essential to a reliable food safety system, but how do you know if your efforts to build a strong one are working? Does your leadership and do your employees align around your food safety priorities? What about the culture of your suppliers? Do you have the tools to measure, improve and document your culture to regulators or your customers? What will it mean for your company and NWFPA to be proactive and create a clear definition of ‘food safety culture’ now vs. responding to the FDA’s definition, still unresolved? Following the general session on “Creating a Culture of Food Safety” with Bama Foods CEO Paula Marshall, Dean Stearman and Dick Dougherty will explore the nuts and bolts of building the food safety culture. They will discuss the future of food safety culture as the foundation of food safety systems and the organizational behavior theory that identifies barriers to achieving your food safety goals. Tools and a case study to identify gaps in cultural alignment and build a roadmap for cultural growth will be presented.

  • 21. FREDTALKS 21 Salinity Management for Sustainable Water Resources 10:45 AM to 11:05 AM • Expo Hall Forum Presenter: Joseph LeClaire, CDM Smith Process water treatment and reuse have become all the more important as western U.S. states face continued drought and more stringent water resource quality requirements. CV-SALTS is conducting the Strategic Salt Accumulation Land and Transportation Study (SSALTS). The findings will be used to establish regional salt management policies to facilitate salt disposal in a manner that is most beneficial to the region and consistent with the State Water Resource Control Board Recycled Water Policy. This presentation presents key findings and issues that are important for NWFPA members to know and possibly anticipate for the Pacific Northwest. Innovative Dry Lubricant Increases Sustainability Practices 11:10 AM to 11:30 AM • Expo Hall Forum Presenter: Ross Shepard, CEO Shepard Bros., Inc. In the food and beverage industry, it is common for a water/biocide/soap mixture to be applied as a lubricant to conveyor belts. This not only contributes to a manufacturing plant’s water footprint, but also causes microbiological growth, corrosion, wet and slippery floors, and soggy and damaged boxes. In a recent three-month case study at a large bottling facility, a novel dry lubricant (Propel STTM) faced a standard water-based lubricant to determine the water conservation benefits. This study demonstrated that utilizing a dry lube such as the one used in this trial significantly reduces the amount of water consumption in a food and beverage processing facility and establishes preventative control for bacterial growth on conveyor belts. Absorb the latest ACA updates 1:20 PM to 1:40 PM • Expo Hall Forum Presenter: Alicia Scalzo Wilmoth, National Practice Leader - Health & Welfare Compliance, USI/Kibble & Prentice Get the latest updates on the Affordable Care Act and what employers need to be addressing with regard to their employee benefit health & welfare plans.

PAY COMPANY, LLC Many companies, both manufacturers and distributors, have very low inventory turns, due in part to slow-moving or obsolete inventory. Ramp Up is the process of introducing new products into the inventory system in a controlled way. Ramp Down is the process of recognizing that certain products or parts are going to be superseded and must be reduced. This requires, in part, an actively engaged materials or purchasing group to oversee the process and maintain communication with sales and new product development. This presentation examines techniques for Ramp Up/Ramp Down inventory management with an eye toward creating alignment between speed, value, quality, and cost to deliver the best possible product to the customer. Update on California Prop 65 and Green Chemistry Regulations 2:10 PM to 2:30 PM • Expo Hall Forum Presenter: Lee Smith, Partner, Perkins, Mann & Everett Prop 65 is the regulatory process in California that requires manufacturers (and food producers) to label their product under certain circumstances if they contain chemicals listed by the state as carcinogenic or mutagenic. The circumstances of when a food product requires labeling will be discussed. Additionally, the state has proposed new regulations that affect the manner in which warnings are to be given and under what circumstances. The proposed rules, which may be final by the Expo and Conference 2015, will be discussed as well as their ramifications to producers. The Green Chemistry regulations will also be discussed. These rules require that products with certain identified "hazardous" chemicals be reformulated to exclude the chemicals or explain why they cannot be taken out.
