HHS.
cprice-sewell on PROD1PC62 with NOTICES
ACTION:
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 information collection provisions in
FDA’s food labeling regulations.
DATES: Submit written or electronic
comments on the collection of
information by April 30, 2007.
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.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Jonna Capezzuto, Office of the Chief
Information Officer (HFA–250), Food
and Drug Administration, 5600 Fishers
Lane, Rockville, MD 20857, 301–827–
4659.
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
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 211001
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.
Food Labeling Regulations—21 CFR
Parts 101, 102, 104, and 105 (OMB
Control Number 0910–0381)—Extension
FDA regulations require food
producers to disclose to consumers and
others specific information about
themselves or their products on the
label or labeling of their products.
Related regulations require that food
producers retain records establishing
the basis for the information contained
in the label or labeling of their products
and provide those records to regulatory
officials. Finally, certain regulations
provide for the submission of food
labeling petitions to FDA. FDA’s food
labeling regulations under parts 101,
102, 104, and 105 (21 CFR parts 101,
102, 104, and 105) were issued under
the authority of sections 4, 5, and 6 of
the Fair Packaging and Labeling Act (the
FPLA) (15 U.S.C. 1453, 1454, and 1455)
and under sections 201, 301, 402, 403,
409, 411, 701, and 721 of the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act)
(21 U.S.C. 321, 331, 342, 343, 348, 350,
371, and 379e). Most of these
regulations derive from section 403 of
the act, which provides that a food
product shall be deemed to be
misbranded if, among other things, its
label or labeling fails to bear certain
required information concerning the
PO 00000
Frm 00067
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
food product, is false or misleading in
any particular, or bears certain types of
unauthorized claims. The disclosure
requirements and other collections of
information in the regulations in parts
101, 102, 104, and 105 are necessary to
ensure that food products produced or
sold in the United States are in
compliance with the labeling provisions
of the act and the FPLA.
Section 101.3 of FDA’s food labeling
regulations requires that the label of a
food product in packaged form bear a
statement of identity (i.e., the name of
the product), including, as appropriate,
the form of the food or the name of the
food imitated. Section 101.4 prescribes
requirements for the declaration of
ingredients on the label or labeling of
food products in packaged form. Section
101.5 requires that the label of a food
product in packaged form specify the
name and place of business of the
manufacturer, packer, or distributor
and, if the food producer is not the
manufacturer of the food product, its
connection with the food product.
Section 101.9 requires that nutrition
information be provided for all food
products intended for human
consumption and offered for sale, unless
an exemption in § 101.9(j) applies to the
product. Section 101.9(g)(9) also
provides for the submission to FDA of
requests for alternative approaches to
nutrition labeling. Finally, § 101.9(j)(18)
provides for the submission to FDA of
notices from firms claiming the small
business exemption from nutrition
labeling.
Section 101.10 requires that
restaurants provide nutrition
information, upon request, for any food
or meal for which a nutrient content
claim or health claim is made. Section
101.12(b) provides the reference amount
that is used for determining the serving
sizes for specific products, including
baking powder, baking soda, and pectin.
Section 101.12(e) provides that a
manufacturer that adjusts the reference
amount customarily consumed (RACC)
of an aerated food for the difference in
density of the aerated food relative to
the density of the appropriate
nonaerated reference food must be
prepared to show FDA detailed
protocols and records of all data that
were used to determine the densityadjusted RACC. Section 101.12(g)
requires that the label or labeling of a
food product disclose the serving size
that is the basis for a claim made for the
product if the serving size on which the
claim is based differs from the RACC.
Section 101.12(h) provides for the
submission of petitions to FDA to
request changes in the reference
amounts defined by regulation.
