Delegations of Authority and Organization
AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the
regulations for delegations of authority to set forth the current
organizational structure of the agency as well as the current addresses
for headquarters and field offices. The agency is also redesignating
certain sections of the regulations to allow for expansion in the
delegation of authority section. This action is necessary to ensure the
continued accuracy of the regulations.
EFFECTIVE DATE: March 24, 1997.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: L'Tonya J. Barnes, Division of
Management Systems and Policy (HFA-340), Food and Drug Administration,
5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20857, 301-827-4807.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The regulations are being amended in subpart
C of part 5 (21 CFR part 5) to reflect the central organization of the
agency and to provide current addresses for headquarters and field
offices. The regulations are also being amended by redesignating

5.215, respectively, to permit the expansion of subpart B to allow for
added delegations.
Notice and comment on these amendments are not necessary under the
Administrative Procedure Act because this is a rule of agency
organization (5 U.S.C. 553(b)).
