FY 2004 Annual Performance Plan
FY 2003 Revised Final Performance Plan
FY 2002 Annual Performance Report
Goal ID | Original Goal Statement as stated in FY 03 Congressional Justification | Disposition | Revised FY 2003 Targets | Explanation |
---|---|---|---|---|
FOODS | ||||
11001 | Complete the safety evaluation of 65 percent of the number of food and color additive petitions that were under review for more than 360 days at the beginning of the Fiscal Year. | Revised | Complete review and action on the safety evaluation of 65% of food and color additive petitions within 360 days of receipt. | FDA has changed all its major premarket goals to be consistent agency-wide, and decrease the potential for confusion that is associated with each program's unique terminology. These goals now include the statement "complete review and action onÖ" |
11010 | Achieve adoption of the Food Code by at least one state agency in 33 states in the USA. | Unchanged | ||
11020 | Inspect 95 percent of high-risk domestic food establishments once every year. | Unchanged | ||

11035 | Publish a final rule to require premarket notification for bioengineered foods. | Dropped | This goal has been dropped because developing the final rule will require further intensive analysis focused at least in part on the question of statutory authority as well as elaborating the process, and the decision criteria and endpoints of such a program. These new challenges make this goal unrealistic for the coming fiscal year. | |
11036 | Increase the number of physical exams by 100% to 48,000 exams and conduct sample analyses on products with suspect histories. | Unchanged | This goal statement and target are unchanged, however this goal has been repeated in the Agency-wide Program Section that focuses on Global Product Safety and Security to reflect the Agency's coordinated response to terrorist threats. | |
11037 | Enhance productivity at the 45 additional ports through focused training. | Dropped | This goal has been dropped because it is not specific enough.
