SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Phoenix Scientific, Inc., 3915 South 48th 
Street Ter., St. Joseph, MO 64503, filed a supplement to ANADA 200-247 
that provides for use of Oxytetracycline HCl Soluble Powder-343 for 
skeletal marking of finfish fry and fingerlings by immersion. The 
approval of this supplemental ANADA relied on publicly available safety 
and effectiveness data contained in Public Master File (PMF) 5667 which 
were compiled under National Research Support Project 7 (NRSP-7), a 
national agricultural research program for obtaining clearances for use 
of new drugs in minor animal species and for special uses. The 
supplemental ANADA is approved as of September 15, 2004, and the 
regulations are amended in 21 CFR 529.1660 to reflect the approval. The 
basis of approval is discussed in the freedom of information summary.
    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(d)(4) 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.
