provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.

The Agency has carefully considered an environmental assessment (EA) of the potential environmental impact of this action and has made a finding of no significant impact (FONSI).
2
The Agency has determined that this action is categorically excluded (CE) from the requirement to submit an environmental assessment or an environmental impact statement because it is of a type that does not have a significant effect on the human environment.

In addition, IMPAX Laboratories, Inc., 30831 Huntwood Ave., Hayward, CA 94544 has informed FDA that it has transferred ownership of, and all rights and interest in, ANADA 200-366 for NOVOCOX (carprofen sodium) Caplets to Putney, Inc., One Monument Square, suite 400, Portland, ME 04101.

Also, Pharmgate LLC, 161 North Franklin Turnpike, suite 2C, Ramsey, NJ 07446, has informed FDA that it has changed its address to 1015 Ashes Dr., suite 102, Wilmington, NC 28405. Accordingly, 21 CFR 510.600 is being amended to reflect this change.
In addition, FDA is revising a human food safety warning for use of sulfamethazine soluble powder in pre-ruminating calves. FDA is also changing the drug labeler code for a generic dinoprost injection product in 21 CFR 522.690, which in error was omitted from a final rule changing sponsorship of an application (78 FR 17595, March 22, 2013). Also, the strength of lufenuron injectable suspension is also being amended to conform to the approved application. These technical amendments are being made to improve the accuracy of the regulations.
In addition, Zoetis Inc., 333 Portage St., Kalamazoo, MI 49007 has requested that FDA withdraw approval of NADA 046-666 that provides for use of Type A medicated articles containing penicillin G procaine to manufacture medicated feeds administered to poultry and swine. This action is being taken at the sponsor's request because this product is no longer manufactured or marketed. Note this NADA was identified as being affected by Guidance for Industry (GFI) #213, “New Animal Drugs and New Animal Drug Combination Products Administered in or on Medicated Feed or Drinking Water of Food-Producing Animals: Recommendations for Drug Sponsors for Voluntarily Aligning Product Use Conditions with GFI #209,” December 2013. Elsewhere in this issue of the
Federal Register
, FDA gave notice that approval of NADA 046-666, and all supplements and amendments thereto, is withdrawn, effective October 23, 2015. As provided in the regulatory text of this document, the animal drug regulations are amended to reflect this voluntary withdrawal of approval.
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.
Therefore, under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and under authority delegated to the Commissioner of Food and Drugs and redelegated to the Center for Veterinary Medicine, 21 CFR parts 510, 520, 522, 524, 556, and 558 are amended as follows:
