SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Federal Register of Thursday, April 
6, 2017, in FR Doc. 2017-06854, on page 16734, the following correction 
is made:
    On page 16734, in the third column, the bulleted list of waivers of

by this notice we are waiving the following persons from the applicable 
requirements of the Sanitary Transportation rule:

on Interstate Milk Shipments' Grade ``A'' Milk Safety Program, only 
when engaged in transportation operations involving bulk and finished 
Grade ``A'' milk and milk products.
    2. Businesses subject to the requirements of part 1, subpart O, 
that are appropriately certified and are inspected under the

State NSSP certification authority.
    3. Businesses subject to the requirements of part 1, subpart O, 
that are permitted or otherwise authorized by the regulatory authority

food establishments as defined in 21 CFR 1.227), only when engaged in 
transportation operations as:
    a. Receivers, whether the food is received at the establishment 
itself or at a location where the authorized establishment receives and 
immediately transports the food to the food establishment;
    b. shippers and carriers in operations in which food is transported 
from the establishment as part of the normal business operations of a 
retail establishment, such as:
    i. Delivery of the food directly to the consumer(s) by the 
authorized establishment or a third-party delivery service; or
    ii. delivery of the food to another location operated by the
