SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
nlaroche on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with RULES
I. Background
In the Federal Register of November
27, 2015 (80 FR 74353), we issued a
final rule entitled ‘‘Standards for the
Growing, Harvesting, Packing, and
Holding of Produce for Human
Consumption’’ (the final rule) that
establishes science-based minimum
standards for the safe growing,
harvesting, packing, and holding of
produce, meaning fruits and vegetables
grown for human consumption. The
final rule, which is codified at 21 CFR
part 112, became effective January 26,
2016, but has staggered compliance
dates starting January 26, 2017.
We examined the economic
implications of the final rule as required
by the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5
U.S.C. 601–612) and determined that
the final rule will have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. In compliance
with section 212 of the Small Business
Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act
(Pub. L. 104–121, as amended by Pub.
L. 110–28), we are making available the
SECG to reduce the burden of
determining how to comply by further
explaining and clarifying the actions
that a small entity must take to comply
with the rule.
We are issuing the SECG consistent
with our good guidance practices

regulation (21 CFR 10.115(c)(2)). The
SECG represents the current thinking of
FDA on this topic. It does not establish
any rights for any person and is not
binding on FDA or the public. You can
use an alternative approach if it satisfies
the requirements of the applicable
statutes and regulations. This is not a
significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 12866 and does not
impose any additional burden on
regulated entities.
II. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
This guidance refers to previously
approved collections of information
found in FDA regulations. These
collections of information are subject to
review by the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501–
3520). The collections of information in
part 112 have been approved under
OMB control number 0910–0816.
III. Electronic Access
Persons with access to the Internet
may obtain the SECG at either https://
www.fda.gov/FoodGuidances, or https://
www.regulations.gov. Use the FDA Web
site listed in the previous sentence to
find the most current version of the
guidance.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The owner
of the bridge, the New York City
Department of Transportation, requested
a temporary deviation in order to
facilitate planned repairs of the bridge
including replacement of the grease
piping system as well as installation of
new span lock shoes, steel shims and
horizontal/vertical bolts.
The Pulaski Bridge across Newtown
Creek, mile 0.6 at New York City, New
York is a double-leaf bascule bridge
with a vertical clearance of 39 feet at
mean high water and 43 feet at mean
low water in the closed position. The
existing drawbridge operating
regulations are listed at 33 CFR
117.801(g)(1)–(2).
The temporary deviation will allow
the Pulaski Bridge to remain closed each
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
and Saturday from 12:01 a.m. to 5 a.m.
beginning September 19, 2017 until
December 30, 2017. The waterway is
transited by tug/barge traffic of various
sizes. Coordination with waterway users
has indicated no objections to the
proposed closure of the draw.
Vessels that can pass under the bridge
without an opening may do so at all
times. The bridge will not be able to
open for emergencies. There is no
alternate route for vessels to pass.
The Coast Guard will also inform the
users of the waterways through our
Local and Broadcast Notices to Mariners
of the change in operating schedule for
the bridge so vessel operators may
arrange their transits to minimize any
impact caused by the temporary
deviation.
In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e),
the drawbridge must return to its regular
operating schedule immediately at the
end of the effective period of this
temporary deviation. This deviation
from the operating regulations is
authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.
