in line 7, the word ``is'' is removed; and in the third column,
beginning in the 16th line from the bottom, the phrase ``label
references values'' is corrected to read ``label reference values''.
4. On page 366, in the first column, in the second full paragraph,
in the 9th line from the bottom of the paragraph, the word

5. On page 368, in the second column, in lines 28 and 30, the word

The Technical Amendments
Sec. 101.12 [Amended]
8. Section 101.12 Reference amounts customarily consumed per eating
occasion is amended in Table 2, in footnote 2, by removing the phrase
``dry, fresh, and frozen pasta'' and adding in its place ``fresh and
frozen pasta''.
Sec. 101.36 [Amended]
9. Section 101.36 Nutrition labeling of dietary supplements of
vitamins and minerals is amended in paragraph (b)(4) introductory
text, by removing the phrase ``molybdenum, selenium'' and adding in its
place the phrase ``molybdenum, and selenium''; in paragraph (b)(4)(vi),
by removing the phrase ``that is followed'' and adding in its place
``and is followed''; in paragraph (c)(10), the sample label is amended
by removing the entries ``Calcium 162 mg'' and ``Phosphorus 125 mg''
and adding in their place ``Calcium 0.162 g'' and ``Phosphorus 0.125
g''; and in paragraph (g), the word ``mineral'' is revised to read
``minerals''.
Publication of this document constitutes final action on these
changes under the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553). Notice
and public procedure and delayed effective date on these changes are
unnecessary, because FDA is merely remedying editorial and
nonsubstantive errors.
