Kodiak Wild Alaska Seafood is recalling 42 pounds of frozen Pacific halibut fillets because the firm operated without a required permit or HACCP controls.
The agency’s classification
FDA (Food): Class II
Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.
This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work
What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 2/5 (Moderate).
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, which typically indicates a situation where there is a remote probability of serious adverse health consequences. The hazard is procedural (lack of permit and HACCP) rather than a confirmed contamination or injury, fitting the Moderate category for voluntary precautionary or regulatory compliance recalls.
