Action taken:
Amendment of section 2.1 of Title 1 NYCRR.

Revised Job Impact Statement
The proposed rule will not have an adverse impact on jobs or on employment opportunities.
The proposed rule will amend 1 NYCRR Part 2 to incorporate by reference the 2017 edition of the Grade A Pasteurized Milk Ordinance (“the 2017 PMO”) and make the provisions thereof applicable to producers, processors and manufacturers of “Grade A” milk and milk products, located in New York, that have a sanitation compliance rating of ninety or better, as set forth in the latest Sanitation and Compliance Enforcement Ratings of the Interstate Milk Shippers Conference (“IMSC”), and that may, therefore, ship such foods in interstate commerce. Such producers, processors and manufacturers are already practically required to substantially comply with the provisions of the 2017 PMO, and setting forth such requirement in regulations places no additional burden upon them. As such, the proposed rule will have no adverse impact upon jobs or employment opportunities.
Initial Review of Rule
As a rule that requires a RFA, RAFA or JIS, this rule will be initially reviewed in the calendar year 2022, which is no later than the 3rd year after the year in which this rule is being adopted.
Assessment of Public Comment
The agency received no public comment.
