Focused Mitigation Strategies To
Protect Food Against Intentional
Adulteration; Public Meetings on
Proposed Rule
AGENCY:
Food and Drug Administration,
HHS.
ACTION:
Notification of public meetings.
The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA or we) is
announcing two public meetings to
discuss the proposed rule to require
domestic and foreign food facilities that
are required to register under the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
(the FD&C Act) to address hazards that
may be intentionally introduced by acts
of terrorism. FDA proposed these
requirements as part of our
implementation of the FDA Food Safety
Modernization Act (FSMA). The
purpose of the public meetings is to
inform the public of the provisions of
the proposed rule and the rulemaking
process (including how to submit
comments, data, and other information
to the rulemaking docket) as well as
solicit oral stakeholder and public
comments on the proposed rule and to
respond to questions about the rule.
DATES: See section II, ‘‘How to
Participate in the Public Meeting’’ in the
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for
dates and times of the public meetings,
closing dates for advance registration,
and information on deadlines for
submitting either electronic or written
comments to FDA’s Division of Dockets
Management.

SUMMARY:
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:29 Jan 30, 2014
Jkt 229001
I. Background
FSMA (Pub. L. 111–353) was signed
into law by President Obama on January
4, 2011, to better protect public health
by helping to ensure the safety and
security of the food supply. FSMA
amends the FD&C Act to establish the
foundation of a modernized, preventionbased food safety system. Among other
things, FSMA requires FDA to issue
regulations requiring domestic and
foreign food facilities that are required
to register under the FD&C Act to
address hazards that may be
intentionally introduced by acts of
terrorism. These food facilities would be
required to identify and implement
focused mitigation strategies to
significantly minimize or prevent
significant vulnerabilities identified at
actionable process steps in a food
operation. We expect the rulemaking
would help to protect food from
intentional adulteration caused by acts
of terrorism.
FDA is announcing additional public
meetings so that the food industry,
consumers, foreign governments, and
other stakeholders can better evaluate
and comment on the proposals. These
meetings, following the College Park,
MD, public event on February 20, are
the final two public meetings FDA plans
to hold during the proposed rule
comment period. All three public
meetings are intended to facilitate and
support the proposed rule’s evaluation
and commenting process.
II. How To Participate in the Public
Meetings
FDA is holding the public meetings
on ‘‘Focused Mitigation Strategies to
Protect Food Against Intentional
Adulteration’’ to: (1) Inform the public
about the rulemaking process, including
how to submit comments, data, and
other information to the rulemaking
PO 00000
Frm 00052
Fmt 4702
Sfmt 4702

docket; (2) respond to questions about
the proposed rules; and (3) provide an
opportunity for interested persons to
make oral presentations. Due to limited
space and time, FDA encourages all
persons who wish to attend the
meetings to register in advance. There is
no fee to register for the public
meetings, and registration will be on a
first-come, first-served basis. Early
registration is recommended because
seating is limited. Onsite registration
will be accepted, as space permits, after
all preregistered attendees are seated.
Those requesting an opportunity to
make an oral presentation during the
time allotted for public comment at the
meetings are asked to submit a request
and to provide the specific topic or
issue to be addressed. Due to the
anticipated high level of interest in
presenting public comment and limited
time available, FDA is allocating 3
minutes to each speaker to make an oral
presentation. Speakers will be limited to
making oral remarks; there will not be
an opportunity to display materials such
as slide shows, videos, or other media
during the meetings. If time permits,
individuals or organizations that did not
register in advance may be granted the
opportunity to make an oral
presentation. FDA would like to
maximize the number of individuals
who make a presentation at each
meeting and will do our best to
accommodate all persons who wish to
make a presentation or express their
opinions at a meeting.
FDA encourages persons and groups
who have similar interests to
consolidate their information for
presentation by a single representative.
After reviewing the presentation
requests, FDA will notify each
participant before the meeting of the
approximate time their presentation is
scheduled to begin, and remind them of
the presentation format (i.e., 3-minute
oral presentation without visual media).
While oral presentations from specific
individuals and organizations will be
necessarily limited due to time
constraints during the public meetings,
stakeholders may submit electronic or
written comments discussing any issues
of concern to the administrative record
(the docket) for the rulemaking. All
relevant data and documentation should
be submitted with the comments to the
relevant docket, i.e., Docket No. FDA–
2013–N–1425.

With this Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking, the Commission is
continuing a review of its rules in 39
CFR part 3010 and requesting comments
and suggestions regarding the treatment
of rate reductions, rate incentives, and
de minimis rate increases under part
3010.
The purposes of this rulemaking are
to clarify and standardize the
Commission’s previous treatment of rate
reductions and rate incentives, to
establish a type of de minimis rate
adjustment that would allow the Postal
Service to make extremely minor
increases to rates without requiring the

II. Background
In Docket No. RM2013–2, the
Commission began the process of
reviewing its rules in 39 CFR part 3010,
with the intent of clarifying and
improving those rules.1 The
Commission adopted final rules in that
docket that, among other minor changes,
reorganized part 3010; added
definitions; clarified the information
required to be submitted with proposed
workshare discounts; clarified that the
rules require that a 12-month period be
used to calculate the annual limitation
when notices of rate adjustment are
more than 12 months apart; clarified
that the Postal Service may not rely on
anticipated changes in mailer behavior
to make adjustments to billing
determinants; and revised the rule
establishing the maximum size of
unused rate adjustment authority for
rate changes to align with statutory
language.2
Order No. 1786 noted that the
Commission’s proposed treatment of
promotional rates and incentive
programs generated significant
disagreement among commenters. Id. at
28. The Commission stated its intent to
establish a separate docket for the
consideration of this issue. Id. at 29, 33.
III. Proposed Rules
I. Introduction
VerDate Mar<15>2010
Postal Service to calculate the annual
limitation or generate unused rate
adjustment authority, and to improve
other aspects of the process of adjusting
rates for market dominant products. The
proposed rules are intended to provide
more certainty for the Postal Service and
the mailing community as they make
decisions that rely upon the Postal
Service’s authority to adjust rates for
market dominant products under 39
U.S.C. 3622(d) and part 3010.
The proposed rules included in this
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking contain:
(1) A separate process for rate
adjustments that consist solely of rate
decreases, designated as a ‘‘Type 1–C
rate adjustment’’; (2) revisions to the
rules for the treatment of rate incentives
for rates of general applicability (Type
1–A and Type 1–B rate adjustments); (3)
revisions to clarify the treatment of rate
incentives that are not rates of general
applicability; (4) revisions to clarify the
treatment of deleted rate cells; and (5)

a separate process for de minimis rate
increases.
A. Type 1–C Rate Adjustments
The Commission proposes allowing
the Postal Service to request certain rate
reductions without the calculation of
the annual limitation and allowing the
Postal Service to recoup associated
unused rate adjustment authority by
using it in future rate adjustments.
These proposed rules apply to notices
that only contain rate decreases. If the
Postal Service proposes a rate increase
in a notice of rate adjustment, the
adjustment must still be filed as a Type
1–A or Type 1–B rate adjustment.
Proposed §§ 3010.3(b)(2), 3010.6,
3010.20(e), 3010.23(b)(2), and 3010.27
are designed to facilitate mid-year rate
reductions by allowing the Postal
Service to recoup unused rate
adjustment authority from those rate
reductions.
Under the Commission’s existing
rules, even for a rate decrease, the Postal
Service must file a Type 1–A rate
adjustment to create unused rate
authority.3 In the past, when the Postal
Service has filed rate reductions that are
not part of an omnibus rate adjustment,
the Postal Service has elected to not
utilize the existing rules to generate
unused rate adjustment authority.
However, recently, the Postal Service
has sought to use rate reductions that
are not part of an omnibus rate
adjustment to generate unused rate
adjustment authority. In its Full-Service
Intelligent Mail Barcode Technology
Credit Promotion (Technology Credit
Promotion) request, the Postal Service
proposed to create unused rate
adjustment authority that it could use in
its next omnibus notice of rate
adjustment.4 Specifically, the Postal
Service proposed to use the unused rate
adjustment authority generated as a
result of the Technology Credit
Promotion before it used any of the
unused rate adjustment authority
generated during the previous 5 years.
Technology Credit Notice at 5. The
Commission rejected this proposal, on
the basis that it violated the first-in,
first-out rule established under 39
U.S.C. 3622(d)(2)(C)(iii)(III). Order No.
1743 at 12. The proposed rules would
3 For example, if the annual limitation was 2
percent, and the Postal Service requested a rate
reduction that resulted in a 0.5 percent rate
decrease, unused rate adjustment authority after
that adjustment would equal 2.5 percent
(2%¥(¥0.5%)).

the College Park, MD, public event on February 20, are the final two
public meetings FDA plans to hold during the proposed rule comment
period. All three public meetings are intended to facilitate and
support the proposed rule's evaluation and commenting process.
II. How To Participate in the Public Meetings
FDA is holding the public meetings on ``Focused Mitigation
Strategies to Protect Food Against Intentional Adulteration'' to: (1)
Inform the public about the rulemaking process, including how to submit
comments, data, and other information to the rulemaking docket; (2)
respond to questions about the proposed rules; and (3) provide an
opportunity for interested persons to make oral presentations. Due to
limited space and time, FDA encourages all persons who wish to attend
the meetings to register in advance. There is no fee to register for
the public meetings, and registration will be on a first-come, first-
served basis. Early registration is recommended because seating is
limited. Onsite registration will be accepted, as space permits, after
all preregistered attendees are seated.
Those requesting an opportunity to make an oral presentation during
the time allotted for public comment at the meetings are asked to
submit a request and to provide the specific topic or issue to be
addressed. Due to the anticipated high level of interest in presenting
public comment and limited time available, FDA is allocating 3 minutes
to each speaker to make an oral presentation. Speakers will be limited
to making oral remarks; there will not be an opportunity to display
materials such as slide shows, videos, or other media during the
meetings. If time permits, individuals or organizations that did not
register in advance may be granted the opportunity to make an oral
presentation. FDA would like to maximize the number of individuals who
make a presentation at each meeting and will do our best to accommodate
all persons who wish to make a presentation or express their opinions

FDA encourages persons and groups who have similar interests to

representative. After reviewing the presentation requests, FDA will
notify each participant before the meeting of the approximate time
their presentation is scheduled to begin, and remind them of the
presentation format (i.e., 3-minute oral presentation without visual
media).
While oral presentations from specific individuals and
organizations will be necessarily limited due to time constraints
during the public meetings, stakeholders may submit electronic or
written comments discussing any issues of concern to the administrative
record (the docket) for the rulemaking. All relevant data and
documentation should be submitted with the comments to the relevant
docket, i.e., Docket No. FDA-2013-N-1425.
