Egg Safety; Final Rule for Prevention of Salmonella Enteritidis in Shell Eggs During Production, Storage, and Transportation; Public Meetings, 44750-44751 [E9-20856]

Download as PDF 44750 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 167 / Monday, August 31, 2009 / Rules and Regulations is the sum of the maximum allocations associated with the share caps for each individual share category and is calculated annually based on the applicable quotas or catch allowance associated with each share category. (7) Redistribution of shares resulting from permanent permit revocation. If a shareholder’s commercial vessel permit for Gulf reef fish has been permanently revoked under provisions of 15 CFR part 904, the RA will redistribute the IFQ shares associated with the revoked permit proportionately among remaining shareholders (subject to cap restrictions) based upon the amount of shares each held just prior to the redistribution. During December of each year, the RA will determine the amount of revoked shares, if any, to be redistributed, and the shares will be distributed at the beginning of the subsequent fishing year. (8) Annual recalculation and notification of IFQ shares and allocation. On or about January 1 each year, IFQ shareholders will be notified, via the IFQ website at ifq.sero.nmfs.noaa.gov, of their IFQ shares and allocations, for each of the five share categories, for the upcoming fishing year. These updated share values will reflect the results of applicable share transfers and any redistribution of shares (subject to cap restrictions) resulting from permanent revocation of applicable permits under 15 CFR part 904. Allocation, for each share category, is calculated by multiplying IFQ share for that category times the annual commercial quota or commercial catch allowance for that share category. Updated allocation values will reflect any change in IFQ share for each share category, any change in the annual commercial quota or commercial catch allowance for the applicable categories; and any debits required as a result of prior fishing year overages as specified in paragraph (c)(1)(ii) of this section. IFQ participants can monitor the status of their shares and allocation throughout the year via the IFQ website. ■ 10.

FDA took this action because SE is among the leading bacterial causes of foodborne illness in the United States, and shell eggs are a primary source of human SE infections.

II. Background

In the Federal Register of July 9, 2009 (74 FR 33030), FDA
published a final rule, ``Prevention of Salmonella Enteritidis in Shell
Eggs During Production, Storage, and Transportation,'' that requires
shell egg producers to implement measures to prevent SE from
contaminating eggs on the farm and from further growth during storage
and transportation, and requires these producers to maintain records
concerning their compliance with the rule and to register with FDA. FDA
took this action because SE is among the leading bacterial causes of
foodborne illness in the United States, and shell eggs are a primary
source of human SE infections. The final rule will reduce SE-associated
illnesses and deaths by reducing the risk that shell eggs are
contaminated with SE.
This document announces two public meetings as part of the agency's
planned outreach initiatives regarding the final rule.
