SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under section 409(b)(5) of the Federal Food,
Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 348(b)(5)), we are giving notice that
we have filed a food additive petition (FAP 2315), submitted by Anitox
Corporation, 1055 Progress Circle, Lawrenceville, GA 30043-4646. The
petition proposes to amend 21 CFR part 573--Food Additives Permitted in
Feed and Drinking Water of Animals to provide for the safe use of
trans-2-hexenal as a preservative in food for poultry and swine.
The petitioner has claimed that this action is categorically
excluded under 21 CFR 25.32(r) because it is of a type that does not
individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human
environment. In addition, the petitioner has stated that, to their
knowledge, no extraordinary circumstances exist that may significantly
affect the quality of the human environment. If FDA determines a
categorical exclusion applies, neither an environmental assessment nor
an environmental impact statement is required. If FDA determines a
categorical exclusion does not apply, we will request an environmental
assessment and make it available for public inspection.
Dated: April 4, 2022.
Lauren K. Roth,
Associate Commissioner for Policy.
