FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:  John K. Harshman, Center for

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Sparhawk Laboratories, Inc., 12340 Santa Fe 
Trail Dr., Lenexa, KS 66215, filed ANADA 200-379 for the use of 
Neomycin Liquid in cattle, swine, sheep, and goats for the treatment 
and control of bacterial enteritis. Sparhawk Laboratories, Inc.'s 
Neomycin Liquid is approved as a generic copy of Pharmacia &Upjohn 
Co.'s BIOSOL Liquid, sponsored by Pharmacia & Upjohn Co., a Division of 
Pfizer, Inc., under ANADA 200-113. The ANADA is approved as of October 
24, 2006, and the regulations in 21 CFR 520.1484 are amended to reflect 
the approval. The basis of approval is discussed in the freedom of 
information summary.
    In accordance with the freedom of information provisions of 21 CFR 
part 20 and 21 CFR 514.11(e)(2)(ii), a summary of safety and 
effectiveness data and information submitted to support approval of 
this application may be seen in the Division of Dockets Management 
(HFA-305), Food and Drug Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, rm. 1061, 
Rockville, MD 20852, between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.
    FDA has determined under 21 CFR 25.33(a)(1) that this action is of 
a type that does not individually or cumulatively have a significant 
effect on the human environment. Therefore, neither an environmental 
assessment nor an environmental impact statement is required.
    This rule does not meet the definition of ``rule'' in 5 U.S.C. 
804(3)(A) because it is a rule of ``particular applicability.'' 
Therefore, it is not subject to the congressional review requirements 
in 5 U.S.C. 801-808.
