Description

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is proposing a regulation that would require domestic and foreign facilities that manufacture, process, pack, or hold food for human or animal consumption in the Untied States to register with DFA by 12 December 2003.  The proposed regulation would implement the Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002, which requires domestic and foreign facilities to register with FDA by 12 December 2003, even in the absence of final regulations.  In the event of an outbreak of food-borne illness, such information will help FDA and other authorities determine the source and case of the event.  In addition, the registration information will enable FDA to notify quickly the facilities that might be impacted by the outbreak.
