SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: ADM Alliance Nutrition, Inc., 1000 North 
30th St., Quincy, IL 62305-3115, filed a supplement to NADA 48-480 that 
provides for the use of CHLORATET 50 (chlortetracycline), a Type A 
medicated article containing 50 grams of chlortetracycline per pound, 
for the manufacture of medicated feeds for livestock and poultry. The 
supplement provides for use of Type A medicated articles containing 90 
or 100 grams of chlortetracycline per pound. The supplemental NADA is 
approved as of January 7, 2010, and the regulations are amended in 21 
CFR 558.128 to reflect the approval.
    Approval of this supplemental NADA did not require review of 
additional safety or effectiveness data or information. Therefore, a 
freedom of information summary is not required.
    FDA has determined under 21 CFR 25.33 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.

List of Subject in 21 CFR Part 558

Therefore, under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and under
