If milk is pumped out only to find frozen milk at the bottom of the tank, will all samples and measurements taken be official?

When milk is pumped out and frozen milk is discovered at the bottom of the tank, it indicates a significant issue regarding the quality and condition of the milk. In such cases, all samples and measurements taken from the tank cannot be deemed official because frozen milk may not accurately represent the overall quality, composition, or any relevant parameters of the liquid milk being evaluated.

Official measurements and samples require homogeneous and representative portions of the product. When milk is frozen, it can alter the physical properties and may not provide an accurate assessment of the milk's quality. Consequently, any testing done on the liquid portion that is pumped out could lead to misleading results. Therefore, to ensure accuracy and compliance, measurements from a tank containing frozen milk should be considered invalid, leading to the conclusion that official status cannot be conferred on these samples and measurements.
