the Federal Register of November 29, 1994 (59 FR 60893) (effective date 
corrected in the Federal Register of December 2, 1994 ( 59 FR 61929)), 
and amended the color additive regulations to provide for the safe use 
of FD&C Yellow No. 5 and FD&C Yellow No. 5 Aluminum Lake for coloring 
drugs and cosmetics intended for use in the area of the eye.

Safety and Applied Nutrition (HFS-217), Food and Drug Administration, 
200 C St. SW., Washington, DC 20204-0001, 202-418-3074.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Federal Register of November 29, 1994 
(59 FR 60893) (effective date corrected in the Federal Register of 
December 2, 1994 (59 FR 61929)), FDA amended 21 CFR 74.1705 and 74.2705 
to provide for the safe use of FD&C Yellow No. 5 and FD&C Yellow No. 5 
Aluminum Lake for coloring drugs and cosmetics intended for use in the 
area of the eye.
    FDA gave interested persons until December 29, 1994, to file 
objections or requests for a hearing. The agency received no objections 
or requests for a hearing on the final rule. Therefore, FDA finds that 
the final rule published in the Federal Register of November 29, 1994, 
should be confirmed as corrected on December 2, 1994.
