The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is holding a public meeting to present work-in-progress on a method for ranking animal feed contaminants by their relative risks to animal and human health.  At this meeting, the Agency will describe the methods it plans to use to develop animal and human Health Consequence Scoring for chemical, physical and biological feed contaminants.

The meeting will be held Tuesday, September 12, 2006, in Meeting Room A third floor, at 7519 Standish Place, Rockville, MD 20855.  For additional information, please contact Zoe Gill, Center for Veterinary Medicine (HFV-226), Food and Drug Administration, 7519 Standish Place, Rockville, MD 20855, 240-453-6867, Fax 240-453-6882 or email: zoe.gill@fda.hhs.gov.

Prior to the public meeting, the FDA will place two documents in Docket No. 2003N-0312 entitled, “List of Potentially Hazardous Contaminants in Animal Feed and Feed Ingredients” and “Determining Health Consequence Scoring for Feed Contaminants.”  The documents will summarize the Agency’s methods for assigning animal and human Health Consequence Scoring to physical, chemical and biological contaminants that may be present in animal feed.  Details of these methods will be discussed at the meeting.  An agenda for the meeting will also be placed in docket.
