21 CFR Part 558
New Animal Drugs For Use In Animal Feeds; Bambermycins; Technical
Amendment
AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.
ACTION: Final rule; technical amendment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal
drug regulation for bambermycins to correct several cross-references in
that regulation. In approving a new animal drug application (NADA)
filed by Hoechst Roussel Vet, FDA failed to amend certain cross-
references to conform to amendments in the approval document and to
provide certain other cross-references. This document provides for
those conforming amendments and cross-references.
EFFECTIVE DATE: March 25, 1998.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: David L. Gordon, Center for Veterinary
Medicine (HFV-6), Food and Drug Administration, 7500 Standish Pl.,
Rockville, MD 20855, 301-594-1739.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In amending the bambermycins regulation to
reflect approval of Hoechst Roussel Vet's NADA 141-034 (use of
bambermycins Type A medicated articles to make Type C medicated cattle
feeds), FDA amended Sec. 558.95 (21 CFR 558.95) by redesignating
paragraph (b) as paragraph (d) (see 62 FR 8373, February 25, 1997), but
failed to amend the cross-references in paragraph (a). Furthermore, in
approving NADA 141-034 to establish several added uses in
Sec. 558.95(b)(4) (currently Sec. 558.95(d)(4)) (see 59 FR 15624, April
4, 1994 and 61 FR 43654, August 26, 1996), FDA failed to provide
reference in paragraph (a)(5) to uses in paragraphs (b)(4)(ii) and
(b)(4)(iii) (current paragraphs (d)(4)(ii) and (d)(4)(iii)). Section
558.95 is amended by revising paragraph (a), by revising the cross-
references to paragraphs (d)(1), (d)(2), (d)(3), and (d)(4), as
appropriate, and by expanding those references in paragraph (a)(5) to
reflect all uses in paragraph (d)(4).
