entering or exiting elevators. GSA
requires users to operate their Segway at
a speed no greater than a walking pace
of three (3) miles per hour. Security
personnel, as well as GSA personnel
and other agency personnel in delegated
buildings, shall monitor, to the extent
practical, the safe and responsible
operation of Segway devices by their
users. Should security or building
management personnel observe the
unsafe operation of a Segway device,
these individuals shall remind the user
of their responsibility for the safe
operation of the Segway and the user’s
accountability for not operating the
device at a speed that exceeds three (3)
miles per hour.
Security (where access is controlled
by security personnel and screening
devices)
Magnetometer and X-ray security
screening devices are ineffective for the
evaluation of Segways. Segway
representatives have reported that
magnetometer devices affect the
operation and software programs of the
transporter device when coming in
contact with or close proximity to
magnetic fields. Accordingly, Segway
recommends that the transporter device
not be operated within five (5) feet of
any magnetometer or X-ray security
screening device. If within five (5) feet
of a magnetometer or X-ray security
screening device, the user of the
transporter device should place the unit
in standby mode or powered off mode
to prevent damage to the transporter
device.
GSA and associated building security
personnel reserve the right to inspect
Segway devices upon entrance to a
Federal building. Upon entering a
Federal building under the jurisdiction,
custody or control of GSA, security
personnel shall notify the individual
that only those persons with a mobility
impairment are authorized to operate a
Segway within the building. The
security personnel may not ask a person
using the device questions about the
nature and extent of the person’s
disability. Security personnel shall
inspect Segways in the same manner as
other motorized devices that enter the
building, including electric wheelchairs
and scooters. Security personnel may
request that the Segway user
demonstrate that the device is
operational thereby ensuring that the
device contains its propulsion and
battery equipment. The Segway user
will be subject to the appropriate
screening protocols established by
security personnel for the protection of
occupants, visitors and facilities, while
maintaining the dignity of all persons
who enter the building.
Vertical Transportation
Segway devices are permitted on
elevators, but are not permitted on
escalators, as per manufacturer
guidance.

Agency Information Collection
Request. 60-Day Public Comment
Request
In compliance with the requirement
of section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the
Office of the Secretary (OS), Department
of Health and Human Services, is
publishing the following summary of a
proposed information collection request
for public comment. Interested persons
are invited to send comments regarding
this burden estimate or any other aspect
of this collection of information,
including any of the following subjects:
(1) The necessity and utility of the
proposed information collection for the
proper performance of the agency’s
functions; (2) the accuracy of the
estimated burden; (3) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4) the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology to minimize the information
collection burden.
To obtain copies of the supporting
statement and any related forms for the
proposed paperwork collections
referenced above, e-mail your request,
including your address, phone number,
OMB number, and OS document
identifier, to Sherette.funncoleman
@hhs.gov, or call the Reports Clearance
Office on (202) 690–6162. Written
comments and recommendations for the
proposed information collections must
be received with 60 days.
Proposed Project: SF–424
Mandatory—OMB No. 4040–0002Revision—Grants.gov.
Abstract: This collection is the
government-wide form used for
mandatory grant programs. Proposed
revision to the form includes the
addition of a data block that will collect
the ‘‘Descriptive Title of Applicant’s
Project.’’ The data field labeled
‘‘County’’ will be revised to read
‘‘County/Parish.’’ The instructions are
also being revised to incorporate the
new descriptive title block and also,
revisions to the instructions for areas
affected by funding and the
congressional district. Changes to the
instructions will increase data quality
and clarity for the collection.
Adding an additional data block is
necessary to comply with the
requirements of the Federal Funding
Accountability and Transparency Act
(FFATA). FFATA was signed into law
on September 26, 2006 (Pub. L. 109–
282). The legislation requires the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB) to
establish a publicly available, online
database containing information about
entities that are awarded federal grants,
loans, and contracts. The revised form
will assist agencies in collecting the
required data elements for the database
through the SF–424 applications. This
form will be utilized on occasion by up
to 26 Federal grant making agencies
with mandatory grant programs. We are
requesting a 2-year clearance of this
form. The affected public includes,
Federal, State, local or tribal
governments, business or other for
profit, and not for profit institutions.

I. Background
FDAAA was signed into law by the
President on September 27, 2007 (Public
Law 110–085). Title X of the FDAAA
includes several provisions pertaining
to food safety, including the safety of
pet food. Sec. 1002(a)of the new law
directs that, within 2 years, FDA is to
issue new regulations to establish
ingredient standards and definitions,
processing standards, and updated
standards for labeling to include
nutritional and ingredient information.
This same provision of the law also
directs that, in developing these new
regulations, FDA obtain input from its
stakeholders, including AAFCO,
veterinary medical associations, animal
health organizations, and pet food
manufacturers. In order to obtain such
input, FDA intends to hold a public
meeting to hear directly from interested
stakeholders.
II. Public Meeting Details
Because FDA is mandated by
Congress to establish the new pet food
requirements within 2 years of
enactment of the FDAAA, it is
imperative that the agency begin the
rulemaking process as soon as possible.
To that end, FDA intends to hold a
public meeting in the greater Rockville,
MD area sometime within the first 3
months of 2008. After the meeting, FDA
will review all of the comments
submitted to the docket prior to
initiating the regulation drafting
process.
III. Comments
FDA will publish a subsequent notice
in the Federal Register announcing the
details of the 2008 public meeting.
However, anyone wishing to submit
general comments about the new law as
it relates to pet food safety or the
planned public meeting may do so to
the Division of Dockets Management
(see Addresses). Submit a single copy of
electronic comments or two paper
copies of any written comments, except
that individuals may submit one paper
copy. Comments should be identified
