SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background The Animal Drug User Fee Act of 2003 (ADUFA) (Public Law 108–130) amended the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act) and requires that FDA assess and collect user fees for certain applications, products, establishments, and sponsors. It also requires the agency to grant a waiver from, or a reduction of, those fees in certain circumstances. The draft guidance explains the procedures FDA expects to use to evaluate waiver requests under the fees exceed costs waiver provision of ADUFA. These procedures may be modified in the future as FDA gains more experience with waiver requests. To qualify for waiver consideration for fees due on or after October 1, 2004, a written request for a fees exceed costs waiver or reduction must be submitted no later than 180 days after the fee is due (section 740(i) of the act (21 U.S.C. 379j–12(i))). II. Significance of Guidance This level 1 draft guidance is being issued consistent with FDA’s Good Guidance Practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The draft guidance, when finalized, will represent the agency’s current thinking on the topic. The document does not create or confer any rights for or on any person and will not operate to bind FDA or the public. Alternative approaches may be used as long as they satisfy the requirements of the applicable statutes and regulations. III. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 This draft guidance refers to previously approved collections of information found in Guidance for Industry #170. These collections of information are subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520) and have been approved under OMB Control No. 0910–0540. IV. Comments This draft guidance document is being distributed for comment purposes only and is not intended for implementation at this time. Interested persons may submit to the Division of Dockets Management (see ADDRESSES) written or electronic comments regarding this document. Submit a single copy of E:\FR\FM\17AUN1.SGM 17AUN1
