ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal drug regulations to reflect approval of a supplemental new animal drug application (NADA) filed by Pennfield Oil Co. that provides for a zero-day preslaughter withdrawal time following use of oxytetracycline in turkey and swine feed. DATES: This rule is effective December 13, 2007. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Joan C. Gotthardt, Center for Veterinary Medicine (HFV–130), Food and Drug Administration, 7500 Standish Pl., Rockville, MD 20855, 301–827–7571, email: joan.gotthardt@fda.hhs.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pennfield Oil Co., 14040 Industrial Rd., Omaha, NE 68144, filed a supplement to NADA 138–938 for PENNOX (oxytetracycline) Type A medicated articles used for making medicated feeds for the treatment of various bacterial diseases of livestock and fish. The supplemental NADA provides for a zero-day withdrawal time prior to slaughter when Type C medicated feeds containing oxytetracycline are fed to turkeys or swine and for minor label revisions. The supplemental application is approved as of November 26, 2007, and the regulations are amended in 21 CFR 558.450 to reflect the approval, an editorial change, and a current format. In accordance with the freedom of information provisions of 21 CFR part 20 and 21 CFR 514.11(e)(2)(ii), summaries of safety and effectiveness data and information submitted to support approval of these applications may be seen in the Division of Dockets Management (HFA–305), Food and Drug Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, rm. 1061, Rockville, MD 20852, between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. The agency has determined under 21 CFR 25.33(a)(1) that this action is of a type that does not individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment. Therefore, neither an environmental assessment nor an environmental impact statement is required. 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.
