FDA is also informing the public of the availability of summaries the basis of approval and of environmental review documents, where applicable.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:**

George K. Haibel, Center for Veterinary Medicine (HFV-6), Food and Drug Administration, 7519 Standish Pl., Rockville, MD 20855, 240-276-9019, email: *[email protected].*

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**

FDA is amending the animal drug regulations to reflect approval actions for NADAs and ANADAs during January 2013, as listed in table 1. In addition, FDA is informing the public of the availability, where applicable, of documentation of environmental review required under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and, for actions requiring review of safety or effectiveness data, summaries of the basis of approval (FOI Summaries) under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). These public documents may be seen in the Division of Dockets Management (HFA-305), Food and Drug Administration, 5630  Fishers Lane, rm. 1061, Rockville, MD 20852, between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. Persons with access to the Internet may obtain these documents through the Center for Veterinary Medicine's (CVM's) FOIA Electronic Reading Room at *http://www.fda.gov/AboutFDA/CentersOffices/OfficeofFoods/CVM/CVMFOIAElectronicReadingRoom/default.htm.*

In addition, FDA is amending the animal drug regulations to reflect changes of sponsorship for an NADA and ANADA, and a change of a sponsor's drug labeler code.

RMS Laboratories, Inc., 1903 East First St., Vidalia, GA 30474, has informed FDA that it has transferred ownership of, and all rights and interest in, NADA 141-210 for GENESIS (triamcinolone acetonide) Topical Spray to Virbac AH, Inc., 3200 Meacham Blvd., Ft. Worth, TX 76137. Following this change of sponsorship, RMS Laboratories, Inc., will no longer be the sponsor of an approved application.

Teva Animal Health, Inc., 3915 South 48th Street Ter., St. Joseph, MO 64503, has informed FDA that it has transferred ownership of, and all rights and interest in, ANADA 200-176 for PRAZITECH (praziquantel) Injectable Solution to Cross Vetpharm Group Ltd., Broomhill Rd., Tallaght, Dublin 24, Ireland.

Abbott Laboratories, North Chicago, IL 60064, has informed FDA of a change in drug labeler code. Accordingly, the Agency is amending the regulations in 21 CFR 510.600 to reflect this change of drug labeler code and to remove entries for RMS Laboratories, Inc., and in 21 CFR parts 522 and 529 to make conforming changes to Abbott Laboratories' product listings.

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.
