This is a consolidation of OMB 0910-0016, 0910-0132, 0910-0185, and 0910-0480. Food and Color additive petitions are reviewed by FDA scientific personnel to assure identity of the substance, its use in or on food (or drugs, medical devices, or cosmetics for a color additive), and that the intended use is safe. Petitions may be submitted in electronic format. Failure to require petitions would block new products from coming to market.
