the agency is also amending the regulations to reflect an 
organizational change within its Center for Food Safety and Applied 
Nutrition (CFSAN). This action is

editorial in nature, and is intended to provide accuracy and clarity to 
the agency's regulations.

(HF-27), Food and Drug Administration, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FDA is amending its regulations in parts 
172, 173, 175, 176, 177, 178, 180, 181, and 189 to reflect a change in 
the name and address for the Association of Official Analytical 
Chemists International. The current name and address listed in FDA's 
regulations is Association of Official Analytical Chemists, 2300 Wilson 
Blvd., Suite 400, Arlington, VA 22201-3301. The new name and address is 
Association of Official Analytical Chemists International, 481 North 
Frederick Ave., suite 500, Gaithersburg, MD 20877-2504.
    To reflect an organizational change within CFSAN, FDA is amending 
the regulations to remove references to the Division of Food and Color 
Additives.
     Publication of this document constitutes final action on these 
changes under the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553). FDA has 
determined that notice and public comment are unnecessary because these 
amendments are editorial and nonsubstantive in nature.
