Meeting of the National Advisory Committee on Rural Health and Human Services, 66729-66730 [2024-18370]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 159 / Friday, August 16, 2024 / Notices draft guidance builds on the voluntary Phase I (2.5-year) sodium reduction goals issued in October 2021. When finalized, the draft guidance will describe our views on the next voluntary goals (Phase II (3-year)) for sodium reduction in a variety of identified categories of foods that are commercially processed, packaged, or prepared. The 3-year goals are intended to balance the need for broad and gradual reductions in sodium and what is publicly known about technical and market constraints on sodium reduction and reformulation. The distribution of sodium concentrations in currently available products in each category was a significant factor in developing these quantitative sodium concentration goals. We developed the goals with a particular emphasis on maintaining concentrations needed for food safety, given the function of salt as a food preservative. The Phase II goals are within the range of concentrations found in currently marketed foods and are feasible using existing technical strategies. We note that we do not intend to finalize the draft long-term (10-year) sodium reduction goals that were included in the 2016 draft of the first edition of the guidance that we announced in the Federal Register of June 2, 2016 (81 FR 35363). We plan to announce any future sodium reduction goals via draft guidance. lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 II.
