concerning each proposed collection of

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Peggy Robbins, Office of Management
Programs (HFA–250), Food and Drug
Administration, 5600 Fishers Lane,
Rockville, MD 20857, 301–827–1223.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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
PO 00000
Frm 00043
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
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.
Reclassification Petitions for Medical
Devices—21 CFR 860.123 (OMB Control
Number 0910–0138)—Extension
FDA has the responsibility under
sections 513(e), 513(f), 514(b), 515(b),
and 520(l) of the Federal Food, Drug,
and Cosmetic Act (the act) (21 U.S.C.
360c(e), 360c(f), 360d(b), 360e(b), and
360j(l)) and part 860 (21 CFR part 860),
subpart C, to collect data and
information contained in
reclassification petitions. The
reclassification provisions of the act
allow any person to petition for
reclassification of a device from any one
of the three classes (I, II, and III) to
another class. The reclassification
content regulation (§ 860.123) requires
the submission of sufficient, valid
scientific evidence demonstrating that
the proposed classification will provide
a reasonable assurance of safety and
effectiveness of the device for its
intended use. The reclassification
provisions of the act serve primarily as
a vehicle for manufacturers to seek
reclassification from a higher to a lower
class, thereby reducing the regulatory
requirements applicable to a particular
device. The reclassification petitions
requesting classification from class III to
class II or class I, if approved, provide
an alternative route to the market in lieu
of premarket approval for class III
devices.
Respondents are device
manufacturers seeking reclassification.
FDA estimates the burden of this
collection of information as follows:
