-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY:  The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal 
drug regulations to reflect approval of an abbreviated new animal drug 
application (ANADA) filed by Delmarva Laboratories, Inc., and a change 
of this sponsor's address. The ANADA provides for oral use of 
clindamycin hydrochloride liquid in dogs and cats for the treatment of 
various bacterial infections.

DATES:  This rule is effective December 26, 2002.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:  Lonnie W. Luther, Center for 
Veterinary Medicine (HFV-104), Food and Drug Administration, 7519

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Delmarva Laboratories, Inc., 2200 Wadebridge 
Rd., P.O. Box 525, Midlothian, VA 23113, filed ANADA 200-291 for 
CLINSOL (clindamycin hydrochloride) Liquid. The application provides 
for oral use of clindamycin hydrochloride liquid in dogs and cats for 
the treatment of various bacterial infections. Delmarva Laboratories' 
CLINSOL Liquid is approved as a generic copy of Pharmacia & Upjohn's 
ANTIROBE Aquadrops Liquid, approved under NADA 135-940. ANADA 200-291 
is approved as of August 26, 2002, and the regulations are amended in 
21 CFR 520.447 to reflect the approval. The basis of approval is 
discussed in the freedom of information summary.
    In addition, Delmarva Laboratories, Inc., has informed FDA of a 
change of address to 1500 Huguenot Rd., suite 106, Midlothian, VA 
23113. Accordingly, the agency is amending the regulations in 21 CFR 
510.600 to reflect the change of sponsor address.
    In accordance with the freedom of information provisions of 21 CFR 
part 20 and 514.11(e)(2)(ii), a summary of safety and effectiveness 
data and information submitted to support approval of this application 
may be seen in the Dockets Management Branch (HFA-305), Food and Drug 
Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, rm. 1061, Rockville, MD 20852, 
between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.
    FDA has determined under 21 CFR 25.33(a)(1) that this action is of 
a type that does not individually or cumulatively have a significant 
effect on the human environment. Therefore, neither an environmental 
assessment nor an environmental impact statement is required.
    This rule does not meet the definition of ``rule'' in 5 U.S.C. 
804(3)(A) because it is a rule of ``particular applicability.'' 
Therefore, it is not subject to congressional review requirements in 5 
U.S.C. 801-808.
