Draft Compliance Policy Guide Sec.
690.800 Salmonella in Animal Feed;
Availability; Extension of Comment
Period
I. Background
In the Federal Register of August 2,
2010 (75 FR 45130), FDA published a
notice of availability of a draft CPG with
a 90-day comment period to request
comments on its proposal that certain
criteria should be considered in
recommending enforcement action
against animal feed or feed ingredients
that are adulterated due to the presence
of Salmonella. The Agency has received
a request for a 60-day extension of the
comment period for the draft CPG. The
request conveyed concern that the
current 90-day comment period does
not allow sufficient time to develop a
meaningful or thoughtful response to
the draft CPG. FDA has considered the
request and is extending the comment
period for the draft CPG for 60 days,
until December 31, 2010.
period.
The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is extending to
December 31, 2010, the comment period
for a notice of availability of a draft
compliance policy guide (CPG) that
appeared in the Federal Register of
August 2, 2010 (75 FR 45130). In the
document, FDA requested comments on
its proposal that certain criteria should
be considered in recommending
enforcement action against animal feed
or feed ingredients that are adulterated
due to the presence of Salmonella. The
Agency is taking this action in response
to requests for an extension to allow
interested persons additional time to
submit comments.
II. Request for Comments
Interested persons may submit to the
Division of Dockets Management (see
ADDRESSES) either electronic or written
comments on this document. It is only
necessary to send one set of comments.
It is no longer necessary to send two

delegated responsibility for funding,
staffing, and operating the Advisory
Board to HHS, which subsequently
delegated this authority to the CDC.
NIOSH implements this responsibility
for CDC. The charter was issued on
