SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background We are announcing the availability of a guidance for industry entitled ‘‘Necessity of the Use of Food Product Categories in Food Facility Registrations and Updates to Food Product Categories.’’ FDA has developed this guidance in response to amendments made by section 102 of FSMA (Pub. L. 111–353) to section 415(a)(2) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 350d(a)(2)). FSMA, enacted on January 4, 2011, amended the food facility registration requirements of section 415 of the FD&C Act. Section 415(a)(2) of the FD&C Act, as amended by section 102 of FSMA, provides in relevant part that, when determined necessary by FDA through guidance, a registrant is required to submit a registration to FDA containing information necessary to notify FDA of the general food category (as identified in § 170.3 (21 CFR 170.3) or any other food categories, as determined appropriate by FDA, including by guidance) of any food manufactured, processed, packed, or held at such facility. This guidance contains FDA’s determination that information about food product categories as identified in § 170.3 and the other food product categories is necessary for a quick, accurate, and focused response to a food safety related issue or incident, an actual or potential bioterrorist incident, or other food-related emergency. The guidance also identifies the additional food product categories included as mandatory fields in food facility registrations, as determined appropriate by FDA under section 102 of FSMA.
