SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES I. Background On February 21, 2014, FDA issued a Federal Register notice (79 FR 9908) announcing the availability of a final guidance for industry entitled ‘‘E2B (R3) Electronic Transmission of Individual Case Safety Reports (ICSRs) Implementation Guide—Data Elements and Message Specification’’ (ICH E2B(R3) guidance) and an appendix to the guidance entitled ‘‘ICSRs: Appendix to the Implementation Guide— Backwards and Forward Compatibility’’ (BFC appendix). The ICH E2B(R3) guidance and BFC appendix were issued as a package that included schema files and additional technical information to be used for creating compatible ICSR files. The preface to the ICH E2B(R3) implementation guidance makes clear that any future ‘‘technical specifications document associated with that guidance would be provided as a stand-alone document’’ but incorporated by reference into that guidance. Accordingly, in this notice, we are announcing the availability of a technical specifications document that will be incorporated into that final guidance. This technical specifications document, which is available on the FDA Guidance Web page at https:// www.fda.gov/Drugs/Guidance ComplianceRegulatoryInformation/ Guidances/ucm274966.htm, is to assist interested parties in electronically submitting individual case safety reports (ICSRs) (and any ICSR attachments) to CDER and CBER. This VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:24 Jun 22, 2016 Jkt 238001 document describes FDA’s technical approach for submitting ICSRs, for incorporating its regionally controlled terminology, and for adding its regional data elements that are not addressed in the ICH E2B (R3) guidance for the following FDA-regulated products: Drug products marketed for human use with approved new drug applications and abbreviated new drug applications; prescription drug products marketed for human use without an approved application; nonprescription (over-thecounter) human drug products marketed without an approved application; and biological products marketed for human use with approved biologic license applications.

Under 33 CFR 127.009, after receiving an LOI, the COTP issues a Letter of Recommendation (LOR) as to the suitability of the waterway for LNG or LHG marine traffic to the appropriate jurisdictional authorities.

The purpose of this notice is to solicit public comments on the proposed increase in LHG marine traffic on the Sabine-Neches Waterway. The Coast Guard believes that input from the public may be useful to the COTP with respect to development of the LOR. Additionally, the Coast Guard intends to task the Area Maritime Security Committee, Port Arthur, TX and the Southeast Texas Waterways Advisory Council with forming a subcommittee comprised of affected port users and stakeholders. The goal of this subcommittee will be to gather information to help the COTP assess the suitability of the associated waterway for increased LHG marine traffic as it relates to navigational safety and security.

NVIC 01–2011 provides guidance for owners and operators seeking approval to build and operate LNG facilities. While NVIC 01–2011 is specific to LNG, it provides useful process information and guidance for owners and operators seeking approval to build and operate LHG facilities as well.
