    Alma,

    In this case you have to take into account the possibility of introduction of pathogens into your other processes that you may not have considered in your original HA.  This can be mitigated with a sound water source and proper sanitation program for the ice plant. If Seagulls defecate in the ice then it is obviously something that needs fixing, but not with HACCP.  The Ice plant can also introduce physical and chemical hazards; but again if the Ice plant is well maintained and chemicals are properly stored then this will not need CCPs.
