SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has 
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for 
review and clearance.

Substances Prohibited From Use in Animal Food or Feed; Animal Proteins 
Prohibited in Ruminant Feed--21 CFR 589.2000(e)(1)(iv) OMB Control 
Number 0910-0339--Extension

    This information collection was established because epidemiological 
evidence gathered in the United Kingdom suggested that bovine 
spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), a progressively degenerative central 
nervous system disease, is spread to ruminant animals by feeding 
protein derived from ruminants infected with

[[Page 60707]]

BSE. This regulation places general requirements on persons that 
manufacture, blend, process, and distribute products that contain, or 
may contain, protein derived from mammalian tissue, and feeds made from 
such products.
    Specifically, this regulation requires renderers, feed 
manufacturers, and others involved in feed and feed ingredient 
manufacturing and distribution to maintain written procedures 
specifying the cleanout procedures or other means, and specifying the 
procedures for separating products that contain or may contain protein 
derived from mammalian tissue from all other protein products from the 
time of receipt until the time of shipment. These written procedures 
are intended to help the firm formalize their processes, and then to 
help inspection personnel confirm that the firm is operating in 
compliance with the regulation. Inspection personnel will evaluate the 
written procedure and confirm it is being followed when they are 
conducting an inspection.
    These written procedures must be maintained as long as the facility 
is operating in a manner that necessitates the record, and if the 
facility makes changes to an applicable procedure or process the record 
must be updated. Written procedures required by this section shall be 
made available for inspection and copying by FDA.
    In the Federal Register of March 15, 2016 (81 FR 13803), FDA 
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed 
collection of information. FDA received one comment; however, it did 
not pertain to the information collection.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information.

    We base our estimate of the number of recordkeepers on inspectional 
data, which reflect a decline in the number of recordkeepers. We 
attribute this decline to a reduction in the number of firms handling 
animal protein for use in animal feed.
