The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal drug regulations to reflect a change of sponsor for 25 approved new animal drug applications (NADAs) and 16 approved abbreviated new animal drug applications (ANADAs) for Type A medicated articles and feed use combinations from Intervet, Inc., to Huvepharma AD.

DATES:

This rule is effective May 15, 2006.

Accordingly, the agency is amending the regulations in 21 CFR 558.55, 558.58, 558.95, 558.120, 558.265, 558.311, 558.355, 558.363, 558.366, 558.450, 558.550, and 558.680 to reflect the transfer of ownership and a current format.

In addition, Huvepharma AD has not been previously listed in the animal drug regulations as a sponsor of an approved application. At this time, 21 CFR 510.600(c) is being amended to add entries for the firm.

Also, FDA has found that the April 1, 2005, edition of Title 21, parts 500 to 599 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) does not accurately reflect the use limitations for amprolium in single-ingredient, medicated broiler chicken feeds. The existing entry erroneously includes limitations normally associated with the use of arsenicals in feed. At this time, the regulations are being amended in § 558.55 to correct this error. FDA is also taking this opportunity to consolidate entries for similar combination medicated feeds in the same section of part 558, and to eliminate duplicate entries. These actions are being taken to improve the accuracy and readability of the regulations.

This rule does not meet the definition of "rule" in 5 U.S.C. 804(3)(A) because it is a rule of "particular applicability." Therefore, it is not subject to the congressional review requirements in 5 U.S.C. 801-808.

List of Subjects

21 CFR Part 510

Administrative practice and procedure, Animal drugs, Labeling, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements.

21 CFR Part 558

Therefore, under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and under authority delegated to the Commissioner of Food and Drugs and redelegated to the Center for Veterinary Medicine, 21 CFR parts 510 and 558 are amended as follows:
