Requirements
AGENCY:

Final rule; technical
amendment.
ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is amending its
regulation regarding the intrastate and
interstate distribution of turtles to
reflect a change in responsibility for
administering the provisions of the
regulations from FDA’s Center for Food
Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN)
to FDA’s Center for Veterinary Medicine
(CVM). FDA is taking this action to
enable the agency to more effectively
administer the provisions of this
regulation.
DATES: This rule is effective August 16,
2005.

Medicine (HFV–230), Food and Drug
Administration, 7519 Standish Pl.,
Rockville, MD 20855, 240–276–9210, email: jpaige@cvm.fda.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FDA is
amending its regulations regarding the
intrastate and interstate distribution of
turtles (§ 1240.62 (21 CFR 1240.62)) to
reflect the transfer of regulatory
responsibility from CFSAN to CVM.
Except as otherwise provided, § 1240.62
requires that viable turtle eggs and live

turtles with a carapace length of less
than 4 inches not be sold, held for sale,
or offered for any other type of
commercial or public distribution. FDA
is amending this regulation because
current expertise for addressing issues
regarding this regulation is within CVM.
Reassigning regulatory responsibility to
CVM more effectively utilizes agency
resources in administering the
provisions of the regulation.
Publication of this document
constitutes final action on this change
under the Administrative Procedures
Act (5 U.S.C. 553). FDA has determined
that notice and public comment are
unnecessary because this amendment to
the regulation is nonsubstantive. It
merely reflects an organizational
change.
