\1\ The Agency has carefully considered an environmental assessment (EA) of the potential environmental impact of this action and has made a finding of
  no significant impact (FONSI).

II. Technical Amendments

    Pharmgate LLC, 1015 Ashes Dr., suite 102, Wilmington, NC 28405, has 
informed FDA that it has changed its address to 1800 Sir Tyler Dr., 
Wilmington, NC 28405. Accordingly, we are amending Sec.  510.600(c) to 
reflect this change.
    We are making several technical amendments in part 558, which was 
amended on December 27, 2016 (81 FR 94991), and February 24, 2017 (82 
FR 11510), as part of the FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine's (CVM's) 
Judicious Use Initiative. We are also making several technical 
amendments to the regulations for dosage form drugs. These actions are 
being taken to improve the accuracy of the regulations.

III. Legal Authority

    This final rule is issued under section 512(i) of the Federal Food, 
Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 360b(i)), which 
requires Federal Register publication of ``notice[s] . . . effective as 
a regulation,'' of the conditions of use of approved new animal drugs. 
This rule sets forth technical amendments to the regulations to codify 
recent actions on approved new animal drug applications and corrections 
to improve the accuracy of the regulations, and as such does not impose 
any burden on regulated entities.
    Although denominated a rule pursuant to the FD&C Act, this document 
does not meet the definition of ``rule'' in 5 U.S.C. 804(3)(A) because 
it is a ``rule of particular applicability.'' Therefore, it is not 
subject to the congressional review requirements in 5 U.S.C. 801-808. 
Likewise, this is not a rule subject to Executive Order 12866, which 
defines a rule as ``an agency statement of general applicability and 
future effect, which the agency intends to have the force and effect of 
law, that is designed to implement, interpret, or prescribe law or 
policy or to describe the procedure or practice requirements of an 
agency.''
