SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
In the Federal Register of December 9,
2004 (69 FR 71562), FDA issued a final
rule to implement section 306 of the
Bioterrorism Act. The regulation
requires the establishment and
maintenance of records by persons who
manufacture, process, pack, transport,
distribute, receive, hold, or import food
in the United States. Such records are to
allow for the identification of the
immediate previous sources and the
immediate subsequent recipients of
food. Persons subject to the regulation
who employ 500 or more FTEs had to
be in compliance by December 9, 2005,
and those who employ 11-499 FTEs had
to be in compliance by June 9, 2006.
Persons who employ 10 or fewer FTEs
have until December 11, 2006 to be in
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 208001
compliance. ‘‘Person’’ includes an
individual, partnership, corporation,
and association.
On September 12, 2005, FDA issued
the first edition of a guidance entitled
‘‘Questions and Answers Regarding
Establishment and Maintenance of
Records.’’ On November 22, 2005, FDA
issued a second edition of that
guidance. This document is the third
edition of that guidance entitled
‘‘Questions and Answers Regarding
Establishment and Maintenance of
Records (Edition 3)’’ and responds to
questions regarding persons covered by
the regulation; persons excluded by the
regulation, including additional
guidance on the farm and restaurant
exclusions; and what information is
required in the records established and
maintained by warehouse distribution
facilities. It is intended to help the
industry better understand and comply
with the regulation in 21 CFR part 1,
subpart J. FDA is issuing this guidance
as a Level 1 guidance. The guidance
represents the agency’s current thinking
on the topic. It does not create or confer
any rights for or on any person and does
not operate to bind FDA or the public.
Consistent with FDA’s good guidance
practices regulation § 10.115(g)(2) (21
CFR 10.115), the agency will accept
comments, but it is implementing the
guidance document immediately, in
accordance with § 10.115(g)(2), because
the agency has determined that prior
public participation is not feasible or
appropriate. As noted, persons who
employ 500 or more FTEs had to begin
to establish and maintain records
identifying the immediate previous
sources and immediate subsequent
recipients of food by December 9, 2005,
and those who employ 11-499 FTEs had
to be in compliance by June 9, 2006.
Persons who employ 10 or fewer FTEs
have until December 11, 2006 to be in
compliance. Clarifying the provisions of
the final rule will facilitate prompt
compliance with these requirements
and complete the rule’s implementation.
FDA continues to receive large
numbers of questions regarding the
records final rule, and is responding to
these questions under § 10.115 as
promptly as possible, using a questionand-answer format. The agency believes
that it is reasonable to maintain all
responses to questions concerning
establishment and maintenance of
records in a single document that is
periodically updated as the agency
receives and responds to additional
questions. The following four indicators
will be employed to help users of this
guidance identify revisions: (1) The
guidance will be identified as a revision
of a previously issued document, (2) the
PO 00000
Frm 00009

revision date of the guidance will
appear on its cover, (3) the edition
number of the guidance will be
included in its title, and (4) questions
and answers that have been added to the
original guidance will be identified as
such in the body of the guidance.
II. Comments
Interested persons may submit to the
Division of Dockets Management (see
ADDRESSES) written or electronic
comments regarding the guidance at any
time. Submit a single copy of electronic
comments or two paper copies of any
mailed comments, except that
individuals may submit one paper copy.
Comments are to be identified with the
docket number found in brackets in the
heading of this document. Received
comments and the guidance may be
seen in the Division of Dockets
Management between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m.,
Monday through Friday.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL)
and the U.S. Department of Energy
(DOE) previously clarified their
regulatory authority over the
occupational safety and health of
private-sector contractor employees at a
number of DOE government-owned or
leased facilities that are not subject to
the Atomic Energy Act (AEA). (65 FR
41492, July 5, 2000) Some of these
facilities are either government-owned
and government-operated (GOGO) or
government-owned and contractoroperated (GOCO).
PO 00000
Frm 00010
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
The Atomic Energy Act provides
statutory authority to DOE to regulate
occupational safety and health matters
relating to private sector employees at
facilities subject to the AEA. Section
4(b)(1) of the Occupational Safety and
Health Act of 1970, 29 U.S.C. (the Act),
Section 653(b)(1), precludes OSHA
coverage of working conditions over
which other federal agencies have
exercised statutory authority to
prescribe or enforce standards for
occupational safety or health. A 1992
Interagency Memorandum of
Understanding provides that the
Occupational Safety and Health Act
shall not apply to government ownedcontractor operated (GOCO) sites or
other facilities with private sector
employees for which DOE, pursuant to
the AEA, has exercised its authority to
regulate occupational safety and health.
By letter of June 18, 1999, and further
clarified by letter on March 31, 2000,
DOE provided OSHA with a list of DOE
sites that were not covered by the AEA
and requested OSHA’s concurrence
with DOE’s views that the facilities and
operations in question were subject to
OSHA’s jurisdiction. These sites are
primarily involved in fossil fuel energy
research and power marketing
administration. OSHA responded by
letter on July 13, 1999, agreeing with
DOE that OSHA has jurisdiction over
the working conditions of private sector
employers and employees at such
facilities.
On July 5, 2000, OSHA published a
notice in the Federal Register (65 FR
41492), listing these sites and stating
that private sector employers and
employees at these DOE facilities are
subject to all standards, rules and
requirements issued under the
Occupational Safety and Health Act.
