mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
a sponsor of investigational drug trials,
has the responsibility to assure the FDA
that investigators in its clinical trials
program are maintaining systems for
drug accountability. In order to fulfill
these requirements, a standard
Investigational Drug Accountability
Report Form (NIH 2564) was designed
to account for drug inventories and
usage by protocols. The data obtained
from the drug accountability record will
be used to keep track of the dispensing
of investigational anticancer agents to
patients. It is used by NCI management
to ensure that investigational drug
supplies are not diverted for
inappropriate protocol or patient use.
The information is also compared to
patient flow sheets (protocol reporting
forms) during site visits conducted for
each investigator once every three years.
All comparisons are done with the
intention of ensuring protocol, patient
and drug compliance for patient and
drug compliance for patient safety and
protections.
Frequency of Response: Daily.
Affected Public: State or local
governments, businesses or other forprofit. Federal agencies or employees,
non-profit institutions, and small
business or organizations.
Type of Respondents: Investigators,
pharmacist, nurses, pharmacy
technicians, data manager. The annual
reporting burden is divided into two
major areas. These are the audits of Drug
Accountability Forms by Government
and its contractors and the use of the
forms by clinical research sites. The
burden is as follows:
Federal Burden: 1700 audits are
conducted of clinical research sites, a
minimum of three Drug Accountability
Forms are reviewed at the audit. Each
form requires 1⁄2 hour to review.
Number of Respondents: 1700.
Number of Responses per
Respondent: 3.
Average Burden per Response: 0.5
hours.
Annual Burden Hours: 2,250 hours.
Clinical Trial Site Burden: The annual
respondents’ burden for record keeping
is estimated to require 6,240 hours. The
record keeping burden represents an
average time required for multiple
entries (6 minutes or 0.1 hour per entry)
on the drug accountability form, the
average number of forms maintained by
each record keeper and the number of
record keepers.
Drug Accountability Forms
Number of Record Keepers: 3990.
Number of Responses per
Respondent: 16.
Average Burden per Response: 0.1 (6
minutes).

Agency Information Collection
Activities: Proposed Collection;
Comment Request
Federal Emergency
Management Agency, DHS.
ACTION: Notice; 60-day notice and
request for comments; revision of a
currently approved collection, OMB
Number 1660–0011, FEMA Form 22–13.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA), as part of
its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
invites the general public and other
Federal agencies to take this
opportunity to comment on a proposed
revised information collection. In
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, this notice seeks
comments concerning an information
collection system for disaster program
accounts and debts receivable. The
automated portion of the system is an
accounts receivable system and is
complimented by a manual technique
that collects personal financial data
directly from individual debtors by their
completion of FEMA Form 22–13.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: When
errors in payments occur or reviews and
audits determine that overpayments
were made in various disaster
entitlements, FEMA’s Disaster Finance
Branch (DFB), Office of the Chief
Financial Officer (CFO) records
pertinent receivable data, including
individuals’ personal data, within an
automated, commercial, off-the-shelf
(COTS) accounts receivable system—
ACCPAC. Using various screens, a
receivable is established to bill, monitor
payments and produce reports. If, for
lack of payment, an account receivable
becomes a debt, ACCPAC continues as
the receivable billing and collection
system, but additional personal
financial information is gathered and
used to determine an ability to pay in
setting requirements of installment
payment agreements. DHS debt
collection regulations, 6 CFR part 11,
require FEMA to maintain current credit
data on FEMA’s debtors. To determine
debtors’ financial condition, this
includes the individual debtors’ own
financial statements, executed under
penalty for false claim, concerning their
assets and liabilities and their income
and expenses. FEMA Form 22–13 is the
vehicle used to collect such data
directly from the individual debtor.

Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 211 / Thursday, November 1, 2007 / Notices
FEMA uses this data to understand the
debtors’ financial conditions to
accurately determine their ability to pay
debts, to set arrangements for
installment payments of debts, or to
compromise/terminate debt collection.
This data is also used to locate debtors’
assets should it become necessary when
referring debts to the Treasury
Department for collection.
Collection of Information
Title: Debt Collection Financial
System.
Type of Information Collection:
Revision of a currently approved
collection.
OMB Number: 1660–0011.
Form Numbers: FEMA Form 22–13,
Debt Collection Financial Statement.
Abstract: FEMA may request debtors
to provide personal financial
information on FEMA Form 22–13
concerning their current financial
position. With this information, FEMA
evaluates whether to allow debtors to
pay the FEMA debts under installment
repayment agreements and if so, under
what terms. FEMA also uses this data to
determine whether to compromise,
suspend, or completely terminate
collection efforts on respondent’s debts.
This data is also used to locate the
debtor’s assets if the debts are sent for
judicial enforcement.
Affected Public: Individuals or
Households.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 750 hours.

Estimated Cost: There are no costs to
the respondents resulting from the
collection of information since debtorrespondents provide the necessary data
either from memory or from their own
records that they already maintain. Cost
to the respondents for the hour burdens
is $10,597.50.
Comments: Written comments are
solicited to (a) evaluate whether the
proposed data collection is necessary for
the proper performance of the agency,
including whether the information shall
have practical utility; (b) evaluate the
accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(c) enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) minimize the burden
of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including through
the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses. Comments must be
submitted on or before December 31,
2007.
