SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Federal Register of May 10, 2022 (87
FR 27931), we amended the color additive regulations in part 73 (21 CFR
part 73), ``Listing of Color Additives Exempt From Certification,'' to
add a new Sec. 73.32, ``Antarctic krill meal.'' The new regulation
provides for the safe use of Antarctic krill meal, composed of the
ground and dried tissue of Euphausia superba, with or without the lipid
fraction, for use in the feed of salmonid fish, to enhance the color of
their flesh.
We gave interested persons until June 10, 2022, to file objections
or requests for a hearing. We received no objections or requests for a
hearing on the final rule. Therefore, we find that the effective date
of the final rule that published in the Federal Register of May 10,
2022, should be confirmed.

under authority delegated to the Commissioner of Food and Drugs, we are
giving notice that no objections or requests for a hearing were filed
in response to the May 10, 2022, final rule. Accordingly, the
amendments issued thereby became effective June 10, 2022.
