21 CFR Chapter I

 
Change of Name and Address; Technical Amendment

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Final rule; technical amendment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending its 
regulations to reflect a change in the name and address for the 
Association of Official Analytical Chemists International (AOAC). This 
action is editorial in nature, and is intended to provide accuracy and 
clarity to the agency's regulations.

EFFECTIVE DATE: March 24, 1998.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: LaJuana D. Caldwell, Office of Policy 
(HF-27), Food and Drug Administration, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 
20857, 301-443-2994.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FDA is amending its regulations in 21 CFR 
parts 101, 102, 106, 114, 130, 131, 133, 135, 136, 137, 139, 145, 146, 
150, 155, 156, 160, 161, 163, 164, 166, 168, and 169 to reflect a 
change in the name and address for AOAC. The current name and address 
listed in certain of FDA's regulations for AOAC is Association of 
Official Analytical Chemists, 2300 Wilson Blvd., suite 400, Arlington, 
VA 22201-3301. The new name and address is Association of Official 
Analytical Chemists International, 481 North Frederick Ave., suite 500, 
Gaithersburg, MD 20877-2504.

    Publication of this document constitutes final action on these 
changes under the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553). Notice 
and public procedure are unnecessary because FDA is merely correcting 
nonsubstantive errors.
    Therefore, under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 
U.S.C. 301 et seq.) and under authority delegated to the Commissioner 
of Food and Drugs, 21 CFR chapter I is amended as follows:
    1.  Parts 101, 102, 106, 114, 130, 131, 133, 135, 136, 137, 139, 
145, 146, 150, 155, 156, 160, 161, 163, 164, 166, 168, and 169 are 
amended by removing ``Association of Official Analytical Chemists, 2200 
Wilson Blvd., suite 400, Arlington, VA 22201-3301'' wherever it appears 
and by adding in its place ``Association of Official Analytical 
Chemists International, 481 North Frederick Ave., suite 500, 
Gaithersburg, MD 20877-2504.''

    Dated: March 16, 1998.
 William K. Hubbard,
 Associate Commissioner for Policy Coordination.
