Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 43 / Friday, March 6, 2009 / Rules and Regulations
or 505(j)(2)(A)(vii)(IV) of the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act)
(21 U.S.C. 355(b)(2)(A)(iv) or
355(j)(2)(A)(vii)(IV)). The Division of
Drug Information Resources no longer
exists. The agency contact for this
information is now the Orange Book
Staff, Office of Generic Drugs.
In § 314.53(f), FDA is updating the
agency unit to which notifications of
requests for correction of patent
information should be directed. The
Drug Information Services Branch no
longer exists. These notifications should
now be sent to the Office of Generic
Drugs Document Room, attention the
Orange Book Staff.
In § 314.107(e), FDA is updating the
listing of agency units to which a
505(b)(2) applicant must send
notification of entry of an order or
judgment in a court action. Instead of
the appropriate division in the Office of
Drug Evaluation I and Office of Drug
Evaluation II, these notifications should
now be sent to the appropriate division
in the Office of New Drugs.
In § 314.107(f)(2)(iv), FDA is updating
the agency recipient of a 505(b)(2)
applicant’s required notification that a
legal action has been filed within 45
days of receipt of a notice of paragraph
IV certification (submitted under section
505(b)(2)(A)(iv) of the act) from the
appropriate division in the Center for
Drug Evaluation and Research to the
appropriate division in the Office of
New Drugs.
In § 314.125(b)(16), FDA is correcting
a cross-reference to the agency’s
regulations on institutional review
boards (21 CFR part 56) by replacing
‘‘part 58’’ with ‘‘part 56.’’
Publication of this document
constitutes final action under the
Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C.
553). FDA has determined that notice
and public comment are unnecessary
because the amendments to the
regulations provide only technical
changes to correct an inaccurate citation
and to update agency contacts, and are
nonsubstantive.

Sponsor; Methoxyflurane
AGENCY:
Food and Drug Administration,
HHS.
ACTION:
Final rule.
SUMMARY: The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is amending the
animal drug regulations to reflect a
change of sponsor for a new animal drug
application (NADA) from ScheringPlough Animal Health, Inc., to Medical
Developments International, Ltd.
DATES:
This rule is effective March 6,
2009.

Medicine (HFV–100), Food and Drug
Administration, 7500 Standish Pl.,

ScheringPlough Animal Health Corp., 556 Morris
Ave., Summit, NJ 07901, has informed
FDA that it has transferred ownership
of, and all rights and interest in, NADA
14–485 for ANAFANE (methoxyflurane)
Volatile Liquid for Inhalation
Anesthesia to Medical Developments
International, Ltd., P.O. Box 21,
Sandown Village, 3171 VIC Australia.
Medical Developments International,
Ltd., is not currently listed in the animal
drug regulations as a sponsor of an
approved application. In addition, FDA
has noticed that this new animal drug
has not been previously codified in 21
CFR part 529. Accordingly, the
regulations are amended in 21 CFR
510.600(c) to add entries for Medical
Developments International, Ltd., and in
21 CFR part 529 to add this new animal
drug.
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.

SUMMARY: The Commander, Eleventh
Coast Guard District, has issued a
temporary deviation from the regulation
governing the operation of the Park
Street drawbridge across the Oakland
Inner Harbor, mile 5.2, at Alameda, CA.
The deviation is necessary to allow
seismic retrofitting of the bridge. This
deviation allows single leaf operation of
the double leaf, bascule style
drawbridge, during the deviation
period.
DATES: This deviation is effective from
12:01 a.m. on February 1, 2009 until
11:59 p.m. on May 31, 2009.
ADDRESSES: Documents indicated in this
preamble as being available in the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
County of Alameda requested a
temporary change to the operation of the
Park Street drawbridge across the
Oakland Inner Harbor, mile 5.2, at
Alameda, CA. The Park Street
drawbridge navigation span provides a
horizontal clearance of 241 feet between
pier fenders. During single leaf
operation, horizontal clearance is
reduced to approximately 100 feet. The
drawbridge provides a vertical clearance
of 15 feet above Mean High Water in the
closed-to-navigation position and
unlimited vertical clearance in the
open-to-navigation position. As required
by 33 CFR 117.181, the draw shall open
on signal; except that, from 8 a.m. to 9
a.m. and 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Monday
through Friday except Federal holidays,
the draw need not be opened for the
passage of vessels. However, the draw
shall open during the above closed
periods for vessels which must, for
reasons of safety, move on a tide or
slack water, if at least two hours notice
is given. The waterway is navigated by
commercial, recreational, emergency
and law enforcement vessels.
Between the hours of 7 a.m. and 9
p.m. Monday through Thursday, and
between the hours of 7 a.m. and 3:30
p.m. on Friday, the drawspan will be
operated, one leaf at a time, while the
opposite leaf, counterweight and hinges
are seismically retrofitted. The
drawbridge will be operated in the
normal double leaf operation mode at
night and on weekends, when work is
not actually being performed on the
bridge. The starting and ending dates for
the project are from 12:01 a.m. on
February 1, 2009 until 11:59 p.m. on
May 31, 2009. This temporary deviation
has been coordinated with the waterway
users. The largest tug and barge
combination on the waterway will be
able to continue navigating safely
through the bridge. Recreational and
