IV. Change of Sponsor Address

    Pharmacosmos, Inc. (drug labeler code 042552 in Sec.  510.600(c)) 
has informed FDA that it has changed its address to 120 Headquarters 
Plz., Morristown, NJ 07960. The entries in Sec.  510.600(c) are amended 
to reflect this action.

V. Technical Amendments

    FDA is making the following amendments to improve the accuracy and 
readability of the animal drug regulations.
     Sec.  510.600(c) is amended to remove entries for Superior 
Equine Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and United-AH II, LLC from the lists of 
sponsors of approved applications as these firms are no longer sponsors 
of an approved application.
     21 CFR 522.2630(b) is amended to present the sequence of 
drug labeler codes for tulathromycin injectable solutions.

VI. Legal Authority

    This final rule is issued under section 512(i) of the Federal Food, 
Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C.360b(i)). Although deemed a 
rule pursuant to the FD&C Act, this document does not meet the 
definition of ``rule'' in 5 U.S.C. 804(3)(A) because it is a ``rule of 
particular applicability'' and is not subject to the congressional 
review requirements in 5 U.S.C. 801-808. Likewise, this is not a rule 
subject to Executive Order 12866.

List of Subjects

Reporting and recordkeeping requirements.

21 CFR Parts 520, 522, 524, and 529
