Publication of closed meeting
summary of the Advisory Board on

Safety and Health (NIOSH).
ACTION:
Committee Purpose: This board is
charged with (a) providing advice to the
Secretary, HHS on the development of
guidelines under Executive Order
13179; (b) providing advice to the
Secretary, HHS on the scientific validity
and quality of dose reconstruction
efforts performed for this Program; and
(c) upon request by the Secretary, HHS,
advise the Secretary on whether there is
a class of employees at any Department
of Energy facility who were exposed to
radiation but for whom it is not feasible
to estimate their radiation dose, and on
whether there is reasonable likelihood
that such radiation doses may have
endangered the health of members of
this class.
Background: The Advisory Board on
Radiation and Worker Health met on
December 13, 2004, in closed session to
discuss Individual Case Dose
Reconstruction Reviews. The discussion
involved individual dose reconstruction
case reviews. The individual cases the
ABRWH discussed included personal
information of a confidential nature
where disclosure would constitute a
clearly unwarranted invasion of
personal privacy and, therefore, could
not be disclosed. A Determination to
Close the meeting was approved and
published, as required by the Federal
Advisory Committee Act.

Notice.
SUMMARY: The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is announcing an
opportunity for public comment on the
proposed collection of certain
information by the agency. Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (the
PRA), Federal agencies are required to
publish notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each proposed
extension of an existing collection of
information, and to allow 60 days for
public comment in response to the
notice. This notice solicits comments on
the reporting requirements for assessing
the antimicrobial resistance concerns as
part of the overall preapproval safety
evaluation of new animal drugs,
focusing on the effect of antimicrobial
new animal drugs on bacteria of human
health concern.
DATES: Submit written or electronic
comments on the collection of
information by March 7, 2005.
ADDRESSES: Submit electronic
comments on the collection of
information to https://www.fda.gov/
dockets/ecomments. Submit written
comments on the collection of
information to the Division of Dockets
Management (HFA–305), Food and Drug
Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, rm.
1061, Rockville, MD 20852. All
comments should be identified with the
docket number found in brackets in the
heading of this document.

Under the
PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal
agencies must obtain approval from the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined
in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes agency requests
or requirements that members of the
public submit reports, keep records, or
provide information to a third party.
Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44
U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal
agencies to provide a 60-day notice in
the Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB
for approval. To comply with this
requirement, FDA is publishing notice
of the proposed collection of
information set forth in this document.
With respect to the following
collection of information, FDA invites
comments on these topics: (1) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of FDA’s functions, including whether
the information will have practical
utility; (2) the accuracy of FDA’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques,
when appropriate, and other forms of
information technology.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Evaluating the Safety of Antimicrobial
New Animal Drugs With Regard to
Their Microbiological Effects on
Bacteria of Human Health Concern
Description: The guidance document
discusses an approach for assessing the
safety of antimicrobial new animal
drugs with regard to their
microbiological effects on bacteria of
human health concern. In particular, the
guidance describes methodology that
sponsors of antimicrobial new animal
drug applications for food-producing
animals may use to complete a
qualitative antimicrobial resistance risk
assessment. This risk assessment should
be submitted to FDA for the purposes of
evaluating the safety of the new animal
drug to human health. The guidance
document outlines a process for
integrating relevant information into an
overall estimate of risk and discusses
possible risk management strategies.
