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.
Application for Participation in the Medical Device Fellowship Program-(OMB Control Number 0910-0551)-(Extension)
Sections 1104, 1302, 3301, 3304, 3320, 3361, 3393, and 3394 of Title 5 of the United States Code authorize Federal Agencies to rate applicants for Federal jobs. Collecting applications for the Medical Device Fellowship Program will allow FDA's Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) to easily and efficiently elicit and review information from students and health care professionals who are interested in becoming involved in CDRH activities. The process will reduce the time and cost of submitting written documentation to the Agency and lessen the likelihood of applications being misrouted within the Agency mail system. It will assist the Agency in promoting and protecting the public health by encouraging outside persons to share their expertise with CDRH.
In the Federal Register of September 10, 2013 (78 FR 55260), FDA published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed collection of information. No comments were received.
FDA based these estimates on the number of inquiries that have been received concerning the program and the number of requests for application forms over the past 3 years.
FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows:
| FDA form No. | Number of respondents | Number of responses per respondent | Total annual responses | Average burden per response | Total hours |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Application Form (Form FDA 3608) | 250 | 1 | 250 | 1 | 250 |
| 1 There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. | |||||
