establish Healthy Housing Surveillance
Systems at the state and national levels.
Currently, 40 state and local Childhood
Lead Poisoning Prevention Programs
(CLPPP) report information (e.g.,
presence of lead paint, age of housing,
and type of housing) to the NBLSS. The
addition of a new panel of housing
questions would help to provide a more
comprehensive picture of housing stock
in the United States and potentially
modifiable risk factors.
The objectives for developing this
system are two-fold. First, the program
would like to use surveillance data to
estimate the extent of housing-related
injuries and asthma. This is important
because it will allow the program to
systematically track the management
and follow-up of those residents with
these health outcomes.
The next objective for the
development of this system is to
examine potential housing-related risk
factors. Childhood lead poisoning is just
one of many adverse health conditions
that are related to common housing
deficiencies. Multiple hazards in
housing, e.g., mold, vermin, radon and
the lack of safety devices, continue to
adversely affect the health of residents.
It is in the interest of public health to
expand from a single focus on lead
poisoning prevention to a coordinated,
comprehensive, and systematic
approach to eliminating multiple
housing-related health hazards. The
current NBLSS system requires
reporting of child blood lead levels and
the new HLPSS will continue this effort.
There is no cost to respondents other
than their time.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology. Written comments should
be received within 60 days of this
notice.

Background and Brief Description
The Healthy Housing Lead Poisoning

upon previous efforts by the National
Blood Lead Surveillance System
(NBLSS) to characterize the home
environment in terms of not only lead
poisoning risk factors, but also other
home-based risk factors. While the
earlier NBLSS was focused on homes of
children less than 6 years old, the new
HHLPSS will enable flexibility to
evaluate all homes, regardless of the
presence of children < age 6 years. The
overarching goal of this system is to

Notice.
SUMMARY: The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is announcing the
availability of a draft guidance for
industry entitled ‘‘Guidance for
Industry: Measures to Address the Risk
for Contamination by Salmonella
Species in Food Containing a PistachioDerived Product as an Ingredient’’ (draft
guidance). The draft guidance, when
finalized, is intended to clarify for
manufacturers who produce foods
containing a pistachio-derived product
as an ingredient that there is a risk that
Salmonella species may be present in
the incoming pistachio-derived product,
and to recommend measures to address
that risk.
DATES: Although you can comment on
any guidance at any time (see 21 CFR
10.115(g)(5)), to ensure that the agency
considers your comment on this draft
guidance before it begins work on the
final version of the guidance, submit
written or electronic comments
concerning the draft guidance by August
28, 2009.
ADDRESSES: Submit written requests for
single copies of the draft guidance to the
Office of Food Safety, Center for Food
Safety and Applied Nutrition (HFS–
317), Food and Drug Administration,
5100 Paint Branch Pkwy., College Park,
MD 20740. Send two self-addressed
adhesive labels to assist that office in
processing your requests. Submit
written comments on the draft guidance
to the Division of Dockets Management

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
FDA is announcing the availability of
a draft guidance for industry entitled
‘‘Guidance for Industry: Measures to
Address the Risk for Contamination by
Salmonella Species in Food Containing
a Pistachio-Derived Product as an
Ingredient.’’ This draft guidance is
intended to clarify for manufacturers
who produce foods containing a
pistachio-derived product as an
ingredient that there is a risk that
Salmonella species (spp.) may be
present in the incoming pistachioderived product, and to recommend
measures to address that risk. Pistachioderived products include roasted inshell pistachios and shelled pistachios
(also called kernels) that are roasted or
raw.
We are issuing this guidance in light
of a recent investigation by FDA and the
California Department of Public Health
of Salmonella spp. contamination in
pistachio-derived products (Ref. 1). The
producer issued a voluntary recall
involving a substantial quantity of its
products. Because the recalled
pistachio-derived products were used as
ingredients in a variety of foods, this
recall affected many products and
resulted in additional recalls (Ref. 1).
FDA is issuing this draft guidance as
level 1 guidance consistent with FDA’s
good guidance practices regulation (21
CFR 10.115). The draft guidance
represents the agency’s current thinking
on measures to address the risk for
contamination by Salmonella spp. in
food containing a pistachio-derived
product as an ingredient. It does not
create or confer any rights for or on any
person and does not operate to bind
FDA or the public. An alternate
approach may be used if such approach
satisfies the requirements of the
applicable statutes and regulations.
II. Comments
Interested persons may submit to the
Division of Dockets Management (see
ADDRESSES) written or electronic
comments regarding this document.
Submit a single copy of electronic
comments or two paper copies of any
mailed comments, except that
