Download as PDF 19116 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 66 / Monday, April 6, 2020 / Proposed Rules national emergency.2 Soon thereafter the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency issued guidance identifying, for the COVID–19 pandemic, which infrastructure sectors are critical to maintain necessary services and functions; one is the food and agriculture sector.3 FDA has received a request for a 120day extension of all open comment periods for food-related proposed regulations, draft guidance documents, and Federal Register notices to allow the food industry to focus its efforts on COVID–19 response efforts and assuring that food production continues without pause (Ref. 1). FDA has considered the request in light of the role of the Food and Agriculture Sector in maintaining critical infrastructure and recognizing that the comment period currently is scheduled to close during the acute response to COVID–19. We have concluded that it is reasonable to extend for approximately 90 days the comment period for the Laboratory Accreditation for Analyses of Foods proposed rule. The Agency believes that this extension, together with the original 30-day extension, allows adequate time for any interested persons to consider the proposal fully and submit comments. We also are extending the comment period for the information collection provisions to make the comment period for the information collection provisions the same as the comment period for the provisions of the proposed rule. To clarify, FDA is requesting comment on all issues raised by the proposed rule. II.
