Amendment

ACTION: Final rule; technical amendment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending its 
regulations to update the address for applicants to submit biologics 
license applications (BLAs) and BLA amendments and supplements 
regulated by the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER). This 
action is being taken to ensure accuracy and clarity in the Agency's 
regulations.

DATES: This rule is effective April 2, 2013.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Scott E. Zeiss, Center for Drug 
Evaluation and Research, Food and Drug Administration, 10903 New 
Hampshire Ave., Bldg. 22, rm. 1120, Silver Spring, MD 20993-0002, 301-
796-0639.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FDA is amending 21 CFR 600.2(b) to update 
the address for applicants to submit BLAs and BLA amendments and 
supplements regulated by CDER. The new address for all these 
submissions is CDER Central Document Room, Center for Drug Evaluation 
and Research, Food and Drug Administration, 5901B Ammendale Rd., 
Beltsville, MD 20705. This action is being taken to ensure accuracy and 
clarity in the Agency's regulations.
    Publication of this document constitutes final action on these 
changes under the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553). FDA has 
determined that notice and public comment are unnecessary because this

an address for the submission of BLAs and BLA amendments and 
supplements.
