Purpose The General Services Administration (GSA) has various mission responsibilities related to the acquisition and provision of Federal Supply Service’s (FSS’s) Stock, Special Order, and Schedules Programs. These mission responsibilities generate requirements that are realized through the solicitation and award of various types of FSS contracts. Individual solicitations and resulting contracts may impose unique information collection and reporting requirements on contractors, not required by regulation, but necessary to evaluate particular program accomplishments and measure success in meeting program objectives.

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. Evaluating the Safety of Antimicrobial New Animal Drugs with Regard to Their Microbiological Effects on Bacteria of Human Health Concern (OMB Control Number 0910–0522) In the Federal Register of January 6, 2005 (70 FR 1253), FDA published a 60day notice requesting public comment on the information collection provisions. No comments were received on this information collection. Description: This guidance 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. Table 1 of this document represents the estimated burden of meeting the reporting requirements. The burden E:\FR\FM\30JNN1.SGM 30JNN1 37860 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 125 / Thursday, June 30, 2005 / Notices estimates for these information collection requirements are based on information provided by the Office of New Animal Drug Evaluation, Center for Veterinary Medicine. The guidance document describes the type of information that should be collected by the drug sponsor when completing the antimicrobial resistance risk assessment. FDA will use the risk assessment and supporting information to evaluate the safety of original (21 CFR 514.1) or supplemental (21 CFR 514.8) NADAs for antimicrobial drugs intended for use in food-producing animals. FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: TABLE 1.—ESTIMATED ANNUAL REPORTING BURDEN1 Antimicrobial Risk Assessments No. of Respondents Annual Frequency of Response Hours per Response Total Annual Responses Total Hours Hazard Identification (initial scoping of issues; relevant bacteria, resistance determinants, food products; preliminary data gathering) 15 1 15 30 450 Release Assessment (literature review; review of research reports; data development; compilation, and presentation) 10 1 10 1,000 10,000 Exposure Assessment (identifying and extracting consumption data; estimating probability of contamination on food product) 10 1 10 8 80 Consequence Assessment (review ranking of human drug importance table) 10 1 10 4 40 Risk Estimation (integration of risk components; development of potential arguments as basis for overall risk estimate) 10 1 10 12 120 Risk Management (discussion of appropriate risk management activities) 10 1 10 30 300 Total Burden 1There 10,990 are no capital costs and operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. FDA estimates that on an annual basis an average of 15 NADAs (including original applications and major supplements) would be subject to information collection under this guidance. This estimate is based on the number of reviews completed between October 2003 and October 2004. During that period, microbial food safety for approximately 15 antimicrobial NADAs (including original and major supplements) was evaluated. This estimate excludes NADAs for antimicrobial drug combinations, generic drug applications (ANADAs), and certain supplemental NADAs. Dated: June 23, 2005.
