The FSMA Human Food and Animal Food Preventive Control Rules were officially completed on Monday, August 31st to meet the court-mandated deadline. However, due to the size of these rules, these regulations will not be published in the Federal Register until possibly mid-September.
Documents submitted to the Federal Register can publish several days after they are submitted, with larger documents taking longer to process and display. The FDA will share information about the final rules and how food facilities can comply as soon as they are able to do so.
