    Accordingly, the agency is amending the regulations in 21 CFR 520.1720a, 522.480, 522.540, 522.1010, 522.1720, 522.1883, 522.1962, 522.2063, and 529.1044a to reflect the transfer of ownership. Sections 522.1883 and 522.1962 are also being revised to reflect a current format.

    Following these changes of sponsorship, Anthony Products Co. is no longer the sponsor of an approved application. Accordingly, § 510.600(c) is being amended to remove the entries for Anthony Products Co.

    This rule 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.
