[Market-farming] Eggs at Market

We are being told by the county health department that we can only 
have eggs at market this year if they are in an electrically powered 
cooler: coleman coolers will no longer be allowed because 'they 
cannot maintain the 41 degree temperature requirement.'

Are the rest of you being affected by this? (Supposedly a recent FDA 
requirement)

I've heard that in other areas coolers have been deemed 'safe.'

Also, I hear there is not one recorded incident of a salmonella egg 
from a farmers market in the history of farmers markets in the USofA. 
(comments?)

Thanks
