In the proposed rule, FDA estimated that the Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN) would receive approximately 50 GRAS notices per year and that the Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM) would receive approximately 10 GRAS notices per year. Although FDA requested comment on this estimate, the comments did not provide useful information regarding this issue. Therefore, FDA evaluated the number of notices received by CFSAN to date. CFSAN received 274 GRAS notices during the 11-year period from 1998 through 2008, for an average of approximately 25 GRAS notices per year. Based on this experience, FDA is revising its estimate of the annual number of GRAS notices submitted to CFSAN to be 25 or less. FDA also is revising its estimate of the annual number of GRAS notices submitted to CVM to be 5 or less. Dated: February 4, 2009. Jeffrey Shuren, Associate Commissioner for Policy and Planning.

Under the amended provision, if the original SUD or an attachment to it prominently and conspicuously bears the name of the manufacturer, then the reprocessor of the SUD is required to identify itself by name, abbreviation, or symbol, in a prominent and conspicuous manner on the device or attachment to the device. If the original SUD does not prominently and conspicuously bear the name of the manufacturer, the manufacturer who reprocesses the SUD for reuse, may identify itself using a detachable label that is intended to be affixed to the patient record.

This section of the act only requires the manufacturer, packer, or distributor of a device to include their name and address on the labeling of a device. This information is readily available to the establishment and easily supplied. From its registration and premarket submission database, FDA estimates that there are 10 establishments that distribute approximately 1,000 reprocessed SUDs.

Information Management (HFA-710), Food and Drug Administration, 5600 
Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20857, 301-796-3793.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has 
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for 
review and clearance.

Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff; 
Compliance With Section 301 of the Medical Device User Fee and 
Modernization Act of 2002, as Amended: Prominent and Conspicuous Mark 
of Manufacturers on Single-Use Devices (formerly ``Reprocessed Single-
Use Device Labeling'') (Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, Section 
502(u)) (OMB Control Number 0910-0577)--Extension

    Section 502 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act) 
(21 U.S.C. 352), among other things, establishes requirements that the 
label or labeling of a medical device must meet so that it is not 
misbranded and subject to regulatory action. Section 301 of the Medical 
Device User Fee and Modernization Act of 2002 (Public Law 107-250) 
amended section 502 of the act to add section 502(u) to require devices 
(both new and reprocessed) to bear prominently and conspicuously the 
name of the manufacturer, a generally recognized abbreviation of such 
name, or a unique and generally recognized symbol identifying the 
manufacturer. Thus, the name for this information collection activity 
has been changed to

more accurately describe the information collection content.
    Section 2(c) of The Medical Device User Fee Stabilization Act of 
2005 (Public Law 109-43) amends section 502(u) of the act by limiting 
the provision to reprocessed single-use devices (SUDs) and the 
manufacturers who reprocess them. Under the amended provision, if the 
original SUD or an attachment to it prominently and conspicuously bears 
the name of the manufacturer, then the reprocessor of the SUD is 
required to identify itself by name, abbreviation, or symbol, in a 
prominent and conspicuous manner on the device or attachment to the 
device. If the original SUD does not prominently and conspicuously bear 
the name of the manufacturer, the manufacturer who reprocesses the SUD 
for reuse, may identify itself using a detachable label that is 
intended to be affixed to the patient record.
    The requirements of section 502(u) of the act impose a minimal 
burden on industry. This section of the act only requires the 
manufacturer, packer, or distributor of a device to include their name 
and address on the labeling of a device. This information is readily 
available to the establishment and easily supplied. From its 
registration and premarket submission database, FDA estimates that 
there are 10 establishments that distribute approximately 1,000 
reprocessed SUDs. Each response is anticipated to take 0.1 hours 
resulting in a total burden to industry of 100 hours.
    In the Federal Register of November 17, 2008 (73 FR 67873), FDA 
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the information 
collection provisions. The agency received one comment in support of 
the collection of information stating that it is necessary to help 
reprocessors of SUDs comply with section 502(u) of the act. The comment 
further stated that the estimated reporting burden did not appear 
excessive.
