ACTION:
Notice.
The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA or we) is
announcing the availability of a draft
Compliance Policy Guide (CPG) entitled
‘‘Compliance Policy Guide Sec. 100.101
Crotalaria spp. Seeds in Grains’’ (the
draft CPG). The draft CPG, when
finalized, will provide guidance for FDA
staff on our regulatory action guidance
criteria for Crotalaria species (spp.)
seeds in grains.
DATES: Although you can comment on
any CPG at any time (see 21 CFR
10.115(g)(5)), to ensure that we consider
your comment on the draft CPG before
we begin work on the final version of
the CPG, submit written or electronic
comments on the draft CPG by
November 20, 2015.
ADDRESSES: Submit electronic
comments on the draft CPG to https://
www.regulations.gov. Submit written
comments on the draft CPG to the
Division of Dockets Management (HFA–
305), Food and Drug Administration,
5630 Fishers Lane, Rm. 1061, Rockville,

SUMMARY:
I. Background
We are announcing the availability of
a draft CPG entitled ‘‘Compliance Policy
VerDate Sep<11>2014
15:14 Sep 18, 2015
Jkt 235001
Guide Sec. 100.101 Crotalaria spp.
Seeds in Grain.’’ We previously
provided guidance on Crotalaria
spectabilis and Crotalaria striata seeds
in grains in a CPG entitled ‘‘Compliance
Policy Guide 7126.15 Crotalaria Seeds
in Grains and Feeds’’ (CPG 7126.15),
which we issued on December 1, 1980.
We revoked CPG 7126.15 on July 22,
1994, because at the time we deemed
the CPG to be no longer relevant (59 FR
37498). However, because Crotalaria
plants persist in the agricultural
environment and still present a
potential public health risk, we
continue to monitor grains for the
presence of Crotalaria spp. seeds.
We are making available the draft CPG
because the revocation of CPG 7126.15
in 1994 inadvertently affected
interactions between FDA and the U.S.
Department of Agriculture’s (USDA’s)
Federal Grain Inspection Service (FGIS).
Under a Memorandum of
Understanding between FDA and USDA
(MOU 225–80–2000; https://
www.fda.gov/AboutFDA/
PartnershipsCollaborations/
MemorandaofUnderstandingMOUs/
DomesticMOUs/ucm116312.htm), FGIS
reports to FDA’s district offices the
results of FGIS’s analysis that may be
actionable under the Federal Food,
Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act).
FGIS has been using the CPG 7126.15
criteria for reporting their analytical
results relating to Crotalaria in grain to
FDA.
CPG 7126.25 established a regulatory
action criterion of ‘‘an average of at least
one whole seed of Crotalaria spectabilis
and/or Crotalaria striata per pound’’ of
grain. In developing the draft CPG, we
converted the unit of weight from
pounds to kilograms because metric
units of measurement (e.g., kilograms)
are generally used for scientific
calculations. The conversion from
‘‘seeds per pound’’ to ‘‘seeds per
kilogram’’ resulted in 2.2 seeds per
kilogram. Because the analytical method
is based on determining whole seeds,
we rounded 2.2 to the nearest number
of whole seeds (i.e., 2 whole seeds). The
draft CPG also refers to Crotalaria spp.
seeds in grain instead of Crotalaria
spectabilis and Crotalaria striata
because it is impracticable to
distinguish between Crotalaria seeds
based on species. Thus, the draft CPG
states that FDA may regard grain that
contains more than two whole
Crotalaria spp. seeds per one kilogram
of grain to be adulterated within the
meaning of section 402(a)(1) of the
FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 342(a)(1)).
The draft CPG is being made available
consistent with FDA’s good guidance
practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115).

The draft CPG, when finalized, will
represent our current thinking on
Crotalaria spp. seeds in grains. It does
not create or confer any rights for or on
any person and does not operate to bind
FDA or the public. An alternate
approach may be used if such approach
satisfies the requirements of the
applicable statutes and regulations.
II. Comments
Interested persons may submit to the
Division of Dockets Management (see
ADDRESSES) either electronic or written
comments regarding the draft CPG. It is
only necessary to send one set of
comments. Identify comments with the
docket number found in brackets in the
heading of this document. Received
comments may be seen in the Division
of Dockets Management between 9 a.m.
and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday and
may be posted to the docket at https://
