3M Corporation; Filing of Food Additive Petition

Özet

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) is announcing that we have filed a petition, submitted by Keller and Heckman LLP on behalf of 3M Corporation (Petitioner), requesting that we amend our food additive regulations to no longer provide for the use of two different perfluoroalkyl containing substances as water and oil repellents for paper and paperboard in contact with aqueous and fatty foods because these uses have been abandoned.
