SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Need for Correction

    On January 3, 1995, FSIS published in the Federal Register (60 FR 
174) an amendment to its final nutrition labeling regulations. The 
amendment provided codified language for provisions that previously 
cross-referenced those requirements that FSIS adopted, which were 
contained in the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) final nutrition 
labeling regulations. In the January 3, 1995, publication, FSIS 
inadvertently omitted a provision in the poultry products inspection 
regulations that relates to the modified nutrition label format. 
Paragraph (g)(4) of 9 CFR 381.409 (which was paragraph (f)(4) in the 
nutrition labeling final rule (58 FR 632)) was omitted when revising 9 
CFR 381.409. Therefore, FSIS is adding paragraph (g)(4) to Sec. 381.409 
of the poultry products inspection regulations.

List of Subjects 39 CFR Part 381

    Food labeling, Poultry and poultry products.

    Accordingly, the codification of the final rule on nutrition 
labeling of meat and poultry products, published January 3, 1995, (60 
FR 174), is corrected as follows:

PART 381--POULTRY PRODUCTS INSPECTION REGULATIONS

    1. The authority citation for part 381 continues to read as 
follows:

2.17, 2.55.

    2. Section 381.409 is corrected by adding paragraph (g)(4) to read 
as follows:


Sec. 381.409  Nutrition label content.

* * * * *
    (g) * * *
    (4) Presenting the required information on any other label panel.
