Notice of Solicitation of Applications (NOSA) for the Strategic Economic and Community Development Program for Fiscal Year (FY) 2020; Amendment, 15761-15762 [2020-05718]

Download as PDF jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 54 / Thursday, March 19, 2020 / Notices allowed for food products under FDA jurisdiction under FDA’s 2016 guidance. There are few labels that qualify for the ‘‘healthy’’ claim under the allowances in this notice that wouldn’t qualify otherwise. According to FSIS’s Label Submission and Approval System (LSAS) 2 data, the types of products utilizing FDA’s guidance for the claim ‘‘healthy’’ are mostly products that meet the definition of meal-type in 317.313(l)/381.413(l). Egg product labels are not affected by this policy because FSIS inspected egg products are required by regulation to use the FDA nutrition requirements in 21 CFR part 101 in compliance with 9 CFR 590.411(e)—as such, egg product labeling follows the FDA nutrition panel and the FDA enforcement discretion even though FSIS’s Labeling and Program Delivery Staff (LPDS) reviews and approves FSIS inspected egg product label applications. Because FSIS has received multiple questions from industry about our policy, FSIS is announcing in this Federal Register notice that it will continue to recognize FDA’s 2016 guidance to alleviate consumer confusion and promote uniformity in the marketplace. Specifically, FSIS has allowed and will continue to allow the implied nutrient content claim ‘‘healthy’’ on foods that have a fat profile of predominantly mono and polyunsaturated fats (i.e. sum of monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats are greater than the total saturated fat content of food), but do not meet the regulatory definition of ‘‘low fat,’’ as specified in 9 CFR 317.363(b)(1)/381.463(b)(1) or that contain at least ten percent of the DV per RACC of potassium or vitamin D as one of the options in 9 CFR 317.363(b)(4) and 381.463(b)(4), provided the remaining criteria for healthy in 9 CFR 317.363 and 381.463 have been met. FSIS’s LPDS has reviewed many proposed labels referencing FDA’s ‘‘healthy’’ notice, and most have contained errors and needed correction. If a company wishes to use FDA’s ‘‘healthy’’ claim, they will first need to submit at least one label sketch to LPDS for approval. A corporation’s parent-company only needs to submit one label application for a product produced in multiple establishments that are owned by the corporation. Subsequent similar labels for other products that use FDA’s 2 FSIS’s Label Submission and Approval System (LSAS) is a web-based software application that integrates and implements an electronic label application process for establishments to submit label applications to FSIS. VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:05 Mar 18, 2020 Jkt 250001 ‘‘healthy’’ claim can be generically approved. Submitting one label and receiving approval helps ensure that the rest of the labels are in compliance with FDA and FSIS regulations. Labels using the modified ‘‘healthy’’ claim must be submitted to LPDS in the new FDA nutrition panel format. FSIS will continue to allow the use of implied nutrient content claim ‘‘healthy’’ on foods that have a fat profile of predominantly mono and polyunsaturated fats (i.e., sum of monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats are greater than the total saturated fat content of food), but do not meet the regulatory definition of ‘‘low fat,’’ as specified in 9 CFR 317.363(b)(1) and 381.463(b)(1) or that contain at least ten percent of the DV per RACC of potassium or vitamin D as one of the options in 9 CFR 317.363(b)(4) and 381.463(b)(4), provided the remaining criteria for healthy in 9 CFR 317.363 and 381.463 have been met until FSIS’s ‘‘healthy’’ regulations (9 CFR 317.363(b) and 381.463(b)) are amended through rulemaking. FSIS will continue to coordinate with FDA on any changes to these regulations. Additional Public Notification Public awareness of all segments of rulemaking and policy development is important.
