An individual approved MFA was required for each and every applicable medicated feed. The ADAA streamlined the paperwork process for gaining approval to manufacture medicated feeds by replacing the MFA system with a facility license for each medicated feed manufacturing facility. In the Federal Register of October 28, 2009 (74 FR 55556), FDA published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed collection of information. No comments were received.
