Title: Beverages: Bottled Water (Section 610 Review) 
Abstract: Section 165.110 (21 CFR part 165.110) describes requirements for identity and quality standards for bottled water. FDA is undertaking a review of section 165.110 under section 610 of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. The purpose of this review is to determine whether the regulations in section 165.110 should be continued without change, or whether they should be amended or rescinded, consistent with the stated objectives of applicable statutes, to minimize any significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. FDA will consider, and is soliciting comments on, the following: (1) The continued need for the regulations in section 165.110; (2) the nature of complaints or comments received concerning the regulations in section 165.110; (3) the complexity of the regulations; (4) the extent to which the regulations in section 165.110 overlap, duplicate, or conflict with other Federal rules, and to the extent feasible, with State or governmental rules; and (5) the degree to which technology, economic conditions, or other factors have changed in the area affected by the regulations in section 165.110.
