SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
[top] In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance.
State Enforcement Notifications
OMB Control Number 0910-0275-Extension
This information collection supports Agency regulations. Specifically, section 310(b) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 337(b)) authorizes a State to enforce certain sections of the FD&C Act in its own name and within its own jurisdiction. However, before doing so, a State must provide notice to FDA according to §?100.2 (21 CFR 100.2). The information required in a letter of notification under §?100.2(d) enables us to identify the food against which a State intends to take action and to advise that State whether Federal enforcement action against the food has been taken or is in process. With certain narrow exceptions, Federal enforcement action precludes State action under the FD&C Act.
In the Federal Register of February 7, 2018 (83 FR 5438), FDA published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed collection of information. FDA received one comment in support of the information collection.
FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows:
| 21 CFR part | Number of respondents | Number of responses per respondents | Total annual responses | Average burden per response | Total hours |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 21 CFR Section 100.2(d) | 1 | 1 | 1 | 10 | 10 |
| 1 ?There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. | |||||
The estimated burden for this information collection has not changed since the last OMB approval. The estimated reporting burden for §?100.2(d) is minimal because enforcement notifications are seldom used by States. During the last 3 years, we have not received any new enforcement notifications; therefore, we estimate that one or fewer notifications will be submitted annually. Although we have not received any new enforcement notifications in the last 3 years, we believe these information collection provisions should be extended to provide for the potential future need of a State government to submit enforcement notifications informing us when it intends to take enforcement action under the FD&C Act against a particular food located in the State.
Dated: June 21, 2018.
Leslie Kux,
Associate Commissioner for Policy.
