## Abstract

The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is announcing a procedural change for reviewing labeling submitted to the Labeling Review Branch (LRB) of the Labeling and Compounds Review Division (LCRD). The new procedure will eliminate routine, daily, time-set, face-to-face appointments with label courier/expediting firms. Elimination of the daily, face-to-face appointments will not change the present system of labeling review and will not limit access to all LCRD staff. The labeling review staff will continue to receive and approve labels for meat, poultry, and egg products in a timely and orderly manner. However, the procedural change will lead to a more effective and efficient use of LRB staff time and enable staff to perform labeling reviews and other duties concurrently.
