Where this section sits in the code
- Title 21—Food and Drugs
- CHAPTER I—FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION, DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
- SUBCHAPTER B—FOOD FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION
- PART 170—FOOD ADDITIVES
- Subpart E—Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) Notice
Because the procedure to submit a GRAS notice is replacing the former process to submit a GRAS affirmation petition, the following will happen to a filed GRAS affirmation petition that is pending on October 17, 2016.
(a) On October 17, 2016, we will close the docket for any GRAS affirmation petition that is still pending as of October 17, 2016.
(b) Any person who submitted a GRAS affirmation petition described in this section may submit a GRAS notice as described in this subpart and request that we incorporate the GRAS affirmation petition as described in § 170.215.
