#  Food Labeling; Gluten-Free Labeling of Fermented or Hydrolyzed Foods; Correction

**AGENCY:**

Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

**ACTION:**

Final rule; correction.

**SUMMARY:**

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) is correcting a final rule that published in the *Federal Register* of August 13, 2020. The final rule establishes requirements concerning “gluten-free” labeling for foods that are fermented or hydrolyzed or that contain fermented or hydrolyzed ingredients.

**DATES:**

Effective October 13, 2020.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:**

Carol D'Lima, Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (HFS-820), Food and Drug Administration, 5001 Campus Dr., College Park, MD 20740, 240-402-2371, *[email protected].*

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**

In the *Federal Register* of Thursday, August 13, 2020, (85 FR 49240), FDA published the final rule “Food Labeling; Gluten-Free Labeling of Fermented or Hydrolyzed Foods” with a typographical error in the *SUMMARY* section. In addition, the rule was published with two different effective dates.

In FR Doc. 2020-17088, appearing in the *Federal Register* of Thursday, August 13, 2020, the following corrections are made:

On page 49241, in the first column, the second sentence is corrected to read as follows: “These requirements are needed to help ensure that individuals with celiac disease are not misled and receive truthful and accurate information with respect to fermented or hydrolyzed foods labeled as `gluten-free.'”

On page 49254, in section VI. Effective and Compliance Dates, in the first column, the first sentence is corrected to read as follows: “This rule is effective October 13, 2020.” This confirms the rule is effective October 13, 2020, and is consistent with the effective date stated earlier on page 49241.

Dated: August 31, 2020.

Lauren K. Roth,

Associate Commissioner for Policy.
