-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing that BASF 
Corp. has filed a petition proposing that the food additive regulations 
be amended to provide for the safe use of formic acid as a feed 
acidifying agent in complete poultry feeds.

DATES: The food additive petition was filed on February 10, 2017.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Chelsea Trull, Center for Veterinary 
Medicine, Food and Drug Administration, 7519 Standish Pl., Rockville,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic 
Act (section 409(b)(5) (21 U.S.C. 348(b)(5)), notice is given that a 
food additive petition (FAP 2301) has been filed by BASF Corp., 100 
Park Ave., Florham Park, NJ 07932. The petition proposes to amend Title 
21 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) in part 573 (21 CFR part 
573) Food Additives Permitted in Feed and Drinking Water of Animals to 
provide for the safe use of formic acid as a feed acidifying agent in 
complete poultry feeds.
    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. 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: May 23, 2017.

Deputy Commissioner for Policy, Planning, Legislation, and Analysis.
