The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF), Office of
Community Services (OCS) announces
the award of single-source program
expansion supplements to seven FY
2012 grantees under the Assets for
Independence Demonstration Program
(AFI). Grantees will provide an array of
supports and services to enable
individuals and families with low
incomes to become more economically
self-sufficient for the long term. A
primary feature of each AFI project is
that project participants are given access
SUMMARY:
to special matched savings accounts
called Individual Development
Accounts (IDA). Participants open an
IDA and save earned income in the
account regularly with the goal of
accumulating savings to acquire an
economic asset that will appreciate over
time—specifically, to purchase a home,
capitalize or expand a business for selfemployment, or attend higher education
or training. Grantees also ensure that
participants have access to financial
literacy education and coaching such as
training on money management and
consumer issues. Grant recipients must
finance the projects with a combination
of the federal AFI grant and non-federal
cash. The non-federal cash amount must
be at least equal to the federal AFI grant
amount.
Project periods are 04/1/2012–
03/31/2017 and 07/1/2012–06/30/2017.

Stephen C. Delaney, Jr.: Debarment
Order
AGENCY:
Food and Drug Administration,
HHS.
ACTION:
Notice.
The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is issuing an
order under the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) debarring
Stephen C. Delaney, Jr. for a period of
5 years from importing articles of food
or offering such articles for importation
into the United States. FDA bases this
order on a finding that Mr. Delaney was
convicted of one felony count under
Federal law for conduct relating to the
importation into the United States of an
article of food. Mr. Delaney was given
notice of the proposed debarment and
an opportunity to request a hearing
within the timeframe prescribed by
regulation. As of August 10, 2012 (30
days after receipt of the notice), Mr.
Delaney had not responded. Mr.
Delaney’s failure to respond constitutes
a waiver of his right to a hearing
concerning this action.
DATES: This order is effective October 5,
2012.
ADDRESSES: Submit applications for
termination of debarment to the
Division of Dockets Management (HFA–
305), Food and Drug Administration,
5630 Fishers Lane, rm. 1061, Rockville,
MD 20852.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Affairs, Food and Drug Administration,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
I. Background
Section 306(b)(1)(C) of the FD&C Act
(21 U.S.C. 335a(b)(1)(C)) permits FDA to
debar an individual from importing an
article of food or offering such an article
for import into the United States if FDA
finds, as required by section
PO 00000
Frm 00039
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
61003
306(b)(3)(A) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C.
335a(b)(3)(A)), that the individual has
been convicted of a felony for conduct
relating to the importation into the
United States of any food.
On April 8, 2011, Mr. Delaney was
convicted in the U.S. District Court for
the District of Massachusetts of one
count of false labeling under the Lacey
Act in violation of 16 U.S.C. 3372(d).
FDA’s finding that debarment is
appropriate is based on the felony
conviction referenced herein for
conduct relating to the importation into
the United States of any food. The
factual basis for this conviction is as
follows: As alleged in the indictment
that was filed against Mr. Delaney, he
was the president and owner of a
seafood packing and re-packing
company. On or about April 15, 2009,
in violation of 16 U.S.C. 3372(d), he
knowingly made and submitted a false
record, account and label for, and a false
identification of fish that had been and
was intended to be, imported,
purchased, and received from a foreign
country and transported in interstate
commerce, and involved the sale and
purchase, the offer of sale and purchase,
and the intent to sell and purchase, fish
with a market value of approximately
$8,000. Specifically, Mr. Delaney falsely
labeled imported frozen fillets of
pollock, product of China, as cod loins,
product of Canada.
As a result of his conviction, on July
9, 2012, FDA sent Mr. Delaney a notice
by certified mail proposing to debar him
for a period of 5 years from importing
articles of food or offering such articles
for import into the United States. The
proposal was based on a finding under
section 306(b)(1)(C) of the FD&C Act
that Mr. Delaney was convicted of a
felony under Federal law for conduct
relating to the importation into the
United States of an article of food
because he knowingly made and
submitted a false record, account and
label for, and a false identification of
fish that had been and was intended to
be, imported, purchased, and received
from a foreign country and transported
in interstate commerce, and involved
the sale and purchase, the offer of sale
and purchase, and intent to sell and
purchase, fish with a market value of
approximately $8,000.
The proposal was also based on a
determination, after consideration of the
factors set forth in section 306(c)(3) of
the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 335a(c)(3)), that
Mr. Delaney should be subject to a 5year period of debarment. The proposal
also offered Mr. Delaney an opportunity
to request a hearing, providing him 30
days from the date of receipt of the letter
in which to file the request, and advised
