This proposed information collection was previously published in the Federal Register on June 16, 2010 (75 FR 34146) and allowed 60-days for public comment. One public comment was received on 7/16/2010 from a business informing us that they are able to provide a time-saving ‘‘batch processing service’’ to locate and verify ‘‘the most PO 00000 Frm 00050 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 52351 current addresses and phone numbers’’ of survey respondents. A response was sent on 7/26/2010 to the business which indicated the existence of similar devices and/or procedures in the current design of the project. The purpose of this notice is to allow an additional 30 days for public comment.

The questionnaires will be used to obtain the personal histories to compare to the life styles and exposures and the biospecimens will serve as controls for the assay results obtained from cancer patients.

ACTION: Notice. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing that a proposed collection of information has been submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and clearance under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. DATES: Fax written comments on the collection of information by September 24, 2010. ADDRESSES: To ensure that comments on the information collection are received, OMB recommends that written comments be faxed to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, OMB, Attn: FDA Desk Officer, FAX: 202–395–7285, or emailed to oira_submission@omb.eop.gov. All comments should be identified with the OMB control number 0910–NEW and title ‘‘Experimental Study of Graphic Cigarette Warning Labels.’’ Also include the FDA docket number found in brackets in the heading of this document. SUMMARY: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jonna Capezzuto, Office of Information Management, Food and Drug PO 00000 Frm 00051 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance. Experimental Study of Graphic Cigarette Warning Labels—(OMB Control Number 0910–NEW) Tobacco products are responsible for more than 440,000 deaths each year. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that approximately 46 million U.S. adults smoke cigarettes in the United States, even though this behavior will result in death or disability for half of all regular users. Paralleling this enormous health burden is the economic burden of tobacco use, which is estimated to total $193 billion annually in medical expenditures and lost productivity. Curbing the significant adverse consequences of tobacco use is one of the most important public health goals of our time. One way to do this is through health warnings that describe and graphically depict the harm caused by cigarette use. On June 22, 2009, the President signed the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (Tobacco Control Act) (Public Law 111–31) into law. The Tobacco Control Act granted FDA important new authority to regulate the manufacture, marketing, and distribution of tobacco products to protect the public health generally and to reduce tobacco use by minors. Section 201 of the Tobacco Control Act, which amends section 4 of the Federal Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act (15 U.S.C. 1333), requires FDA to issue ‘‘regulations that require color graphics depicting the negative health consequences of smoking to accompany the label statements specified in subsection (a)(1).’’ FDA conducts research relating to tobacco products under its statutory authority in section E:\FR\FM\25AUN1.SGM 25AUN1

    Summary: Under the provisions of Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the National Cancer Institute (NCI), 
the National Institutes of Health (NIH), has submitted to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) a request to review and approve the 
information collection listed below. This proposed information 
collection was previously published in the Federal Register on June 16, 
2010 (75 FR 34146) and allowed 60-days for public comment. One public 
comment was received on 7/16/2010 from a business informing us that 
they are able to provide a time-saving ``batch processing service'' to 
locate and verify ``the most current addresses and phone numbers'' of 
survey respondents. A response was sent on 7/26/2010 to the business 
which indicated the existence of similar devices and/or procedures in 
the current design of the project. The purpose of this notice is to 
allow an additional 30 days for public comment. The National Institutes 
of Health may not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is not 
required to respond to, an information collection that has been 
extended, revised, or implemented on or after October 1, 1995, unless 
it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    Proposed Collection: Title: Resource for the Collection and

Use of Information Collection: Under the auspices of three NCI IRB-
