The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is correcting a document that appeared in the Federal Register of Thursday, April 6, 2017 (82 FR 16733). That notification published three waivers from the Requirements of 21 CFR part 1, subpart O--Sanitary Transportation of Human and Animal Food (the Sanitary Transportation rule). That document was published with an error in the Background section. This correction is being made to improve the accuracy of the notification.
