#  Registration requirements for shell egg producers covered by the requirements of this part.

**AGENCY:**

Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

**ACTION:**

Final rule; technical amendment.

**SUMMARY:**

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending its regulations to correct the date by which producers must register their farm with FDA, reflect a change in the address and telephone number for requesting copies of Form No. 3733, and reflect a change in the address to which producers must send their CD-ROM. This action is editorial in nature and is intended to improve the accuracy of the agency's regulations.

**DATES:**

Effective on April 13, 2010.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:**

John Sheehan, Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (HFS-315), Food and Drug Administration, 5100 Paint Branch Pkwy., College Park, MD 20740, 301-436-1488.
