Therefore, neither an environmental assessment nor an environmental impact statement is required. This rule does not meet the definition of ``rule'' in 5 U.S.C. 804(3)(A) because it is a rule of ``particular applicability.'' Therefore, it is not subject to the congressional review requirements in 5 U.S.C. 801-808. List of Subject in 21 CFR Part 558 Animal drugs, Animal feeds. ?
