SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the

Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act

(sec. 409(b)(5) (21 U.S.C. 348(b)(5))),

notice is given that a food additive

petition (FAP 6B4507) has been filed by

General Electric Co., 1 Lexan Lane, Mt.

proposes to amend the food additive

regulations in § 178.2010 Antioxidants

and/or stabilizers for polymers (21 CFR

178.2010) to provide for the safe use of

triisopropanolamine as a component of

phosphorous acid, cyclic butylphenyl

propanediol, 2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenyl

ester, a stabilizer for olefin polymers

intended for use in contact with food.

The potential environmental impact

of this action is being reviewed. To

encourage public participation

consistent with regulations promulgated

under the National Environmental

Policy Act (40 CFR 1501.4(b)), the

agency is placing the environmental

assessment submitted with the petition

that is the subject of this notice on

display at the Dockets Management

impact and the evidence supporting that

finding will be published with the

regulation in the Federal Register in

accordance with 21 CFR 25.40(c).
