FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Elizabeth Berbakos, Office of Information Management (HFA–710), Food and Drug Administration, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20857, 301–796–3792. VerDate Nov<24>2008 16:30 Nov 17, 2009 Jkt 220001 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 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. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Biological Products: Reporting of Biological Product Deviations and Human Cells, Tissues, and Cellular and Tissue-Based Product Deviations; Form FDA 3486 and Addendum 3486A (OMB Control Number 0910–0458)—Extension Under section 351 of the Public Health Service Act (PHS Act) (42 U.S.C. 262), all biological products, including human blood and blood components, offered for sale in interstate commerce must be licensed and meet standards, including those prescribed in the FDA regulations, designed to ensure the continued safety, purity, and potency of such products. In addition under section 361 of the PHS Act (42 U.S.C. 264), FDA may issue and enforce regulations necessary to prevent the introduction, transmission, or spread of communicable diseases between the States or possessions or from foreign countries into the States or possessions. Further, the Federal Food, Drug, and PO 00000 Frm 00037 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Cosmetic Act (the act) (21 U.S.C. 351) provides that drugs and devices (including human blood and blood components) are adulterated if they do not conform with current good manufacturing practice (CGMP) assuring that they meet the requirements of the act. Establishments manufacturing biological products including human blood and blood components must comply with the applicable CGMP regulations (parts 211, 606, and 820 (21 CFR parts 211, 606, and 820)) and current good tissue practice (CGTP) regulations (part 1271 (21 CFR part 1271)) as appropriate. FDA regards BPD reporting and HCT/P deviation reporting to be an essential tool in its directive to protect public health by establishing and maintaining surveillance programs that provide timely and useful information. Section 600.14, in brief, requires the manufacturer who holds the biological product license, for other than human blood and blood components, and who had control over a distributed product when the deviation occurred, to report to the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) or to the Center for Drugs Evaluation and Research (CDER) as soon as possible but not to exceed 45 calendar days after acquiring information reasonably suggesting that a reportable event has occurred. Section 606.171, in brief, requires a licensed manufacturer of human blood and blood components, including Source Plasma; an unlicensed registered blood establishment; or a transfusion service who had control over a distributed product when the deviation occurred, to report to CBER as soon as possible but not to exceed 45 calendar days after acquiring information reasonably suggesting that a reportable event has occurred. Similarly § 1271.350(b), in brief, requires non-reproductive HCT/P establishments described in § 1271.10 to report to CBER all HCT/P deviations relating to a distributed HCT/P that relates to the core CGTP requirements, if the deviation occurred in the establishment’s facility or in a facility that performed a manufacturing step for the establishment under contract, agreement or other arrangement. Form FDA 3486 is used to submit BPD reports and HCT/P deviation reports. Respondents to this collection of information are the licensed manufacturers of biological products other than human blood and blood components, licensed manufacturers of blood and blood components including Source Plasma, unlicensed registered blood establishments, transfusion services, and establishments that manufacture non-reproductive HCT/Ps E:\FR\FM\18NON1.SGM 18NON1 59557 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 221 / Wednesday, November 18, 2009 / Notices regulated solely under section 361 of the PHS Act as described in § 1271.10. The number of respondents and total annual responses are based on the BPD reports and HCT/P deviation reports FDA received in fiscal year (FY) 2008. The number of licensed manufacturers and total annual responses under 21 CFR 600.14 include the estimates for BPD reports submitted to both CBER and CDER. Based on the information from industry, the estimated average time to complete a deviation report is 2 hours. The availability of the standardized report form, Form FDA 3486, and the ability to submit this report electronically to CBER (CDER does not currently accept electronic filings) further streamlines the report submission process. CBER has developed an addendum to Form FDA 3486. The web-based addendum 3486A provides additional information when a BPD report has been reviewed by FDA and evaluated as a possible recall. The additional information requested includes information not contained in the Form FDA 3486 such as: (1) Distribution pattern, (2) method of consignee notification, (3) consignee(s) of products for further manufacture, (4) additional product information, (5) updated product disposition, and (6) industry recall contacts. This information is requested by CBER through e-mail notification to the submitter of the BPD report. This information is used by CBER for recall classification purposes. At this time Addendum 3486A is being used only for those BPD reports submitted under § 606.171. CBER estimates that 5 percent of the total BPD reports submitted to CBER under § 606.171 would need additional information submitted in the addendum. CBER further estimates that it would take between 10 to 20 minutes to complete the addendum. For calculation purposes, CBER is using 15 minutes. Activities such as investigating, changing standard operating procedures or processes, and follow-up are currently required under 21 CFR parts 211, (approved under OMB control number 0910–0139), part 606 (approved under OMB control number 0910–0116), part 820 (approved under OMB control number 0910–0073), and part 1271 are approved under OMB Control No. 0910– 0543 and, therefore, are not included in the burden calculation for the separate requirement of submitting a deviation report to FDA. FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: ESTIMATED ANNUAL REPORTING BURDEN1 21 CFR Section FDA Form Number No. of Respondents Annual Frequency per Response Total Annual Responses Hours per Response Total Hours 600.14 3486 51 7.78 397 2.0 794 606.171 3486 1,533 28.78 44,125 2.0 88,250 1271.350(b) 3486 84 2.64 222 2.0 444 3486A2 77 28.65 2,206 0.25 551.5 Total 90,039.5 1 There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. 2 Five percent of the number of respondents (1,533 x 0.05 = 77) and total annual responses to CBER (44,125 x 0.05 = 2,206).

This proposed information collection was previously published in the Federal Register on Wednesday, July 29, 2009, VerDate Nov<24>2008 16:30 Nov 17, 2009 Jkt 220001 Volume 74, Number 144 and allowed 60-days for public comment. No public comments were received. The purpose of this notice is to allow an additional 30 days for public comment. Final Rule requires that the agency inform the potential persons who are to respond to the collection of information that such persons are not required to respond to the collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. This information is required to be stated in the 30-day Federal Register Notice. Proposed Collection: Describe the proposed information collection activity as follows. Include: Title: Parental Knowledge, Attitudes, and Behaviors Related to Pediatric Cardiovascular Health; Type of Information Collection Request: New; Need and Use of Information Collection: Coinciding with the release of the Integrated Pediatric Cardiovascular Risk Reduction PO 00000 Frm 00038 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Guidelines, the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) will conduct a national public awareness campaign to help parents understand that risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) begins in childhood, and to engage them in encouraging healthy habits in their children to promote heart health and reduce their children’s CVD risk now and as they grow. Currently, little is known about parental knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors related to heart health in children. Serving as a baseline for evaluation of NHLBI’s outreach activities related to the campaign, this study seeks to learn the following: (a) Parents’ awareness of cardiovascular disease risk factors in children and knowledge of what to do for risk reduction, (b) parents’ level of efficacy toward taking action to promote cardiovascular health and reduce risk factors, and (c) parents’ behaviors related to cardiovascular health. The findings will provide valuable information that will enable NHLBI to identify the gaps in knowledge and awareness and target specific E:\FR\FM\18NON1.SGM 18NON1

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 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,

Biological Products: Reporting of Biological Product Deviations and 
Human Cells, Tissues, and Cellular and Tissue-Based Product Deviations; 
Form FDA 3486 and Addendum 3486A (OMB Control Number 0910-0458)--
Extension

    Under section 351 of the Public Health Service Act (PHS Act) (42 
U.S.C. 262), all biological products, including human blood and blood 
components, offered for sale in interstate commerce must be licensed 
and meet standards, including those prescribed in the FDA regulations, 
designed to ensure the continued safety, purity, and potency of such 
products. In addition under section 361 of the PHS Act (42 U.S.C. 264), 
FDA may issue and enforce regulations necessary to prevent the 
introduction, transmission, or spread of communicable diseases between 
the States or possessions or from foreign countries into the States or 
possessions. Further, the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the 
act) (21 U.S.C. 351) provides that drugs and devices (including human 
blood and blood components) are adulterated if they do not conform with 
current good manufacturing practice (CGMP) assuring that they meet the 
requirements of the act. Establishments manufacturing biological 
products including human blood and blood components must comply with 
the applicable CGMP regulations (parts 211, 606, and 820 (21 CFR parts 
211, 606, and 820)) and current good tissue practice (CGTP) regulations 
(part 1271 (21 CFR part 1271)) as appropriate. FDA regards BPD 
reporting and HCT/P deviation reporting to be an essential tool in its 
directive to protect public health by establishing and maintaining 
surveillance programs that provide timely and useful information.
    Section 600.14, in brief, requires the manufacturer who holds the 
biological product license, for other than human blood and blood 
components, and who had control over a distributed product when the 
deviation occurred, to report to the Center for Biologics Evaluation 
and Research (CBER) or to the Center for Drugs Evaluation and Research 
(CDER) as soon as possible but not to exceed 45 calendar days after 
acquiring information reasonably suggesting that a reportable event has 
occurred. Section 606.171, in brief, requires a licensed manufacturer 
of human blood and blood components, including Source Plasma; an 
unlicensed registered blood establishment; or a transfusion service who 
had control over a distributed product when the deviation occurred, to 
report to CBER as soon as possible but not to exceed 45 calendar days 
after acquiring information reasonably suggesting that a reportable 
event has occurred. Similarly Sec.  1271.350(b), in brief, requires 
non-reproductive HCT/P establishments described in Sec.  1271.10 to 
report to CBER all HCT/P deviations relating to a distributed HCT/P 
that relates to the core CGTP requirements, if the deviation occurred 
in the establishment's facility or in a facility that performed a 
manufacturing step for the establishment under contract, agreement or 
other arrangement. Form FDA 3486 is used to submit BPD reports and HCT/
P deviation reports.
    Respondents to this collection of information are the licensed 
manufacturers of biological products other than human blood and blood 
components, licensed manufacturers of blood and blood components 
including Source Plasma, unlicensed registered blood establishments, 
transfusion services, and establishments that manufacture non-
reproductive HCT/Ps

regulated solely under section 361 of the PHS Act as described in Sec.  
1271.10. The number of respondents and total annual responses are based 
on the BPD reports and HCT/P deviation reports FDA received in fiscal 
year (FY) 2008. The number of licensed manufacturers and total annual 
responses under 21 CFR 600.14 include the estimates for BPD reports 
submitted to both CBER and CDER. Based on the information from 
industry, the estimated average time to complete a deviation report is 
2 hours. The availability of the standardized report form, Form FDA 
3486, and the ability to submit this report electronically to CBER 
(CDER does not currently accept electronic filings) further streamlines 
the report submission process.
    CBER has developed an addendum to Form FDA 3486. The web-based 
addendum 3486A provides additional information when a BPD report has 
been reviewed by FDA and evaluated as a possible recall. The additional 
information requested includes information not contained in the Form 
FDA 3486 such as: (1) Distribution pattern, (2) method of consignee 
notification, (3) consignee(s) of products for further manufacture, (4) 
additional product information, (5) updated product disposition, and 
(6) industry recall contacts. This information is requested by CBER 
through e-mail notification to the submitter of the BPD report. This 
information is used by CBER for recall classification purposes. At this 
time Addendum 3486A is being used only for those BPD reports submitted 
under Sec.  606.171. CBER estimates that 5 percent of the total BPD 
reports submitted to CBER under Sec.  606.171 would need additional 
information submitted in the addendum. CBER further estimates that it 
would take between 10 to 20 minutes to complete the addendum. For 
calculation purposes, CBER is using 15 minutes.
    Activities such as investigating, changing standard operating 
procedures or processes, and follow-up are currently required under 21 
CFR parts 211, (approved under OMB control number 0910-0139), part 606 
(approved under OMB control number 0910-0116), part 820 (approved under 
OMB control number 0910-0073), and part 1271 are approved under OMB 
Control No. 0910-0543 and, therefore, are not included in the burden 
calculation for the separate requirement of submitting a deviation 
report to FDA.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows:
