Food Labeling; Placement of the Nutrition Label on Food Packages; 
Correction

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

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

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is correcting a final 
rule that appeared in the Federal Register of April 5, 1995 (59 FR 
17202). The document amended food labeling regulations to provide 
increased flexibility in the placement of the nutrition label on 
packaged foods. The document was published with some inadvertent 
errors. This document corrects those errors.

EFFECTIVE DATE: May 5, 1995.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Arletta M. Beloian, Center for Food 
Safety and Applied Nutrition (HFS-165), Food and Drug Administration, 
200 C St. SW., Washington, DC 20204, 202-205-5430.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the last sentence of Sec. 101.9(j)(17) 
(21 CFR 101.9(j)(17)), in the codified section of the final rule, the 
words ``placement of'', which were included in the sentence as noted in 
comment ``2.'' of the preamble discussion, were inadvertently omitted. 
FDA is correcting Sec. 101.9(j)(17) to include ``placement of'' 
preceding the words ``the nutrition label'' in that sentence. Further, 
to provide for parallel construction in the preceding sentence, FDA is 
also adding ``placement of'' preceding ``the nutrition label.''
    In FR Doc. 95-8067, appearing in page 17202 in the Federal Register 
of Wednesday, April 5, 1995, the following correction is made:


Sec. 101.9  [Corrected]

    On page 17205, in the third column, in Sec. 101.9 (j)(17), under 
amendment ``3.'', in lines 15 and 19, the words ``the placement of'' 
are added before the word ``the''.

    Dated: June 6. 1995.

Deputy Commissioner for Policy.
