Commission will indicate the grounds 

for its action and one or more 

statements of reasons may be issued.

[Docket No. FAA–2006–26477] 

FAA Civil Penalty Adjudication Web 

Site 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule; technical 

amendment. 

SUMMARY: The FAA has a Web site that 

provides access to many documents 

relating to the agency’s administrative 

adjudication of civil penalty cases. 

Currently, the address provided in the 

regulations for the civil penalty 

adjudication Web site is incorrect. In 

this rulemaking, we are amending the 

regulations to substitute the correct Web 

site address. 

DATES: This rule is effective on March 

29, 2007. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Sheila Skojec, Office of the Chief 

Counsel, Adjudication Branch, 800 

Independence Avenue, SW., 

Washington, DC, 20591; telephone 202/ 

385–8228. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The FAA assesses civil penalties for 

violations of certain provisions of the 

Federal aviation statute and the Federal 

hazardous materials transportation 

statute. The rules of practice in 14 CFR 

13.16 and 14 CFR part 13, subpart G (14 

CFR 13.201–13.235) govern these 

proceedings involving the adjudication 

of civil penalties. 

The agency has a Web site containing 

documents relating to the agency’s 

adjudication of civil penalties. These 

documents include decisions and orders 

issued by the Administrator, indexes of 

decisions, contact information for the 

Hearing Docket and the administrative 

law judges, the rules of practice, and 

other information. 

We recently discovered that the 

address for the Web site set forth in 14 

CFR 13.210 is incorrect. As a result, we 

are amending the rules to correct this 

problem. 

This Rulemaking 

FAA Civil Penalty Adjudication Web 

Site. We are amending section 13.210 to 

correct the Web site address for the FAA 

civil penalty adjudication Web site. The 

correct address is: http://www.faa.gov/ 

about/office_org/headquarters_offices/ 

agc/pol_adjudication/AGC400/ 

Civil_Penalty. 

Procedural Matters 

In general, under the Administrative 

Procedure Act (APA), 5 U.S.C. 553, 

agencies must publish regulations for 

public comment and give the public at 

least 30 days notice before adopting 

regulations. There is an exception to 

these requirements if the agency for 

good cause finds that notice and public 

comment are impracticable, 

unnecessary, or contrary to the public 

interest. In this case, the FAA finds that 

notice and comment requirements are 

unnecessary due to the administrative 

nature of the change. It is in the public 

interest for the Rules of Practice to 

provide the correct address for the civil 

penalty adjudication Web site as soon as 

possible.

Laxative Drug Products for Over-theCounter Human Use; Psyllium 

Ingredients in Granular Dosage Forms 

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, 

HHS. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug 

Administration (FDA) is issuing a final 

rule establishing that over-the-counter 

(OTC) laxative drug products in 

granular dosage form containing the 

bulk-forming psyllium ingredients 

(psyllium (hemicellulose), psyllium 

hydrophilic mucilloid, psyllium seed, 

psyllium seed (blond), psyllium seed 

husks, plantago ovata husks, and 

plantago seed) are not generally 

recognized as safe and effective 

(GRASE) and are misbranded. This final 

rule includes, but is not limited to, any 

granules that are swallowed dry prior to 

drinking liquid; dispersed, suspended, 

or partially dissolved in liquid prior to 

swallowing; chewed, partially chewed, 

or unchewed, and then washed down 

(or swallowed) with liquid; or sprinkled 

over food. FDA is issuing this final rule 

after considering reports of esophageal 

obstruction associated with the use of 

psyllium laxatives in granular dosage 

form. These cases continue to occur 

despite efforts to promote safe use 

through label warnings and directions. 

This final rule does not apply to 

psyllium laxatives in nongranular 

dosage forms, such as powders, tablets, 

or wafers. This final rule is part of 

FDA’s ongoing review of OTC drug 

products. 

DATES: Effective Date: This rule is 

effective October 1, 2007. 

Compliance Date: The compliance 

date for all products subject to this final 

rule, including products with annual 

sales less than $25,000, is October 1, 

2007.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

In the advance notice of proposed 

rulemaking (ANPRM) for OTC laxative, 

antidiarrheal, emetic, and antiemetic 

drug products (40 FR 12902 at 12906, 

March 21, 1975), the advisory review 

panel on OTC laxative, antidiarrheal, 

emetic, and antiemetic drug products 

(the Panel) recommended Category I 

(GRASE and not misbranded) status for 

the OTC bulk laxative psyllium 

ingredients, which included plantago 

seed, plantago ovata husks, psyllium 

(hemicellulose), psyllium hydrophilic 

mucilloid, psyllium seed, psyllium seed 

(blond), and psyllium seed husks. FDA 

concurred with the Panel’s Category I 

classification of these ingredients in the 

tentative final monograph (TFM) 

published in the Federal Register of 

January 15, 1985 (50 FR 2124 at 2152). 

In the ANPRM, the Panel 

recommended a warning statement (21 

CFR 334.52(a)(1)) for bulk-forming 

laxatives that advised drinking a full 

glass, 8 ounces (oz), of liquid with each
