FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: JonnaLynn Capezzuto, Office of Operations, Food and Drug Administration, Three White Flint North, 10A- 12M, 11601 Landsdown St., North Bethesda, MD 20852, 301-796-3794, PRAStaff@fda.hhs.gov. 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. Current Good Manufacturing Practice and Hazard Analysis and Risk-Based Preventive Controls for Food for Animals--21 CFR Part 507 OMB Control Number 0910-0789--Extension The information collection supports FDA regulations. As amended by the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) (Pub. L. 111-353), the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) enables the Agency to better protect the public health by helping to ensure the safety and security of the food supply. It enables FDA to focus more on preventing food safety problems rather than relying primarily on reacting to problems after they occur. FSMA recognizes the important role industry plays in ensuring the safety of the food supply, including the adoption of modern systems of preventive controls in food production. Specifically, section 418 (21 U.S.C. 350g) of the FD&C Act sets forth requirements for hazard analysis and risk-based preventive controls for facilities that produce food for animals. To implement these provisions, regulations were codified under 21 CFR part 507--Current Good Manufacturing Practice, Hazard Analysis, And Risk-Based Preventive Controls For Food For Animals. The regulations establish requirements for a written food safety plan; hazard analysis preventive controls; monitoring; corrective actions and corrections; verification; supply- chain program; recall plan; and associated records and became effective November 16, 2015. Currently, we continue to evaluate burden associated with the information collection requirements however, for purposes of extending the information collection we retain the currently approved figures as shown in the following tables. In the Federal Register of May 24, 2018 (83 FR 24124), FDA published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed collection of information. We received three comments, however none pertained to the information collection or underlying regulations. We estimate our burden of the information collection as follows: Table 1--Estimated Annual Reporting Burden \1\ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Number of Number of responses Total 21 CFR section; activity respondents per annual Average burden per response Total hours respondent responses ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 507.7 exemption: submit 1,120 0.5 560 0.5 (30 minutes)............ 280 attestation of preventive controls or compliance with State and local laws (non- federal).

As previously stated, we retain the currently approved burden estimate for the information collection. These figures are based on our regulatory impact analysis in support of the final rule on Preventive Controls for Food for Animals, which published in the Federal Register of September 17, 2015 (80 FR 56170). Using Agency data, we estimated the number of animal food facilities that we believe are subject to the regulations. We base our estimate of the time necessary for the individual reporting, recordkeeping, and third-party disclosure activities on our experience with similar information collections.
