A few months ago, we received a notice from the Wild Bird Feeding Industry of the US informed us that under the Public Health Security and Bio-terrorism Response Act of 2001 and the Bio-terror Preparedness Act of 2001 we'd have to register our company with the USFDA. Is this true? If so, how do we undertake registeration? Thank you for your assistance. Sincerely, Thomas Leitgen
