Street Ter., St. Joseph, MO 64503, filed ANADA 200-463 that provides 
for the use of Amprolium 9.6% Oral Solution to make medicated drinking 
water for chickens and turkeys for the treatment of coccidiosis. IVX 
Animal Health, Inc.'s Amprolium 9.6% Oral Solution is approved as a 
generic copy of Huvepharma, AD's AMPROVINE 9.6% Solution, approved 
under NADA 13-149. The ANADA is approved as of February 12, 2009, and 
the regulations are amended in 21 CFR 520.100 to reflect the approval.
    In accordance with the freedom of information provisions of 21 CFR 
part 20 and 21 CFR 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 Division of Dockets Management 
(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 the congressional review requirements 
in 5 U.S.C. 801-808.
