Title: Final Regulation To Establish Procedures for the Safe and Sanitary Processing and Importing of Fish and Fishery Products 
Abstract: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is adopting regulations to ensure the safe and sanitary processing and importing of fish and fishery products. These procedures include the monitoring of selected processes in accordance with Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) principles.
