Proposed Project: The Nursing
Education Loan Repayment Program
Application (OMB No. 0915–0140)—
[Revision]
This is a request for revision of the
Nursing Education Loan Repayment
Program (NELRP) application and
participant monitoring forms. The
NELRP is authorized by 42 USC 297n(a)
(section 846(a) of the Public Health
Service Act, as amended by Public Law
107–205, August 1, 2002 and Public
Law 111–148, March 23, 2010).
Under the NELRP, registered nurses
are offered the opportunity to enter into
a contractual agreement with the
Secretary to receive loan repayment for
up to 85 percent of their qualifying
educational loan balance as follows: 30
percent each year for the first 2 years
and 25 percent for the optional third
year. In exchange, the nurses agree to
serve full-time for a minimum of 2 years
as a registered nurse at a health care
facility with a critical shortage of nurses
or as nurse faculty at an eligible school
of nursing. The NELRP forms provide
information that is needed for selecting
participants, repaying qualifying loans
for education, and monitoring
compliance with service requirements.
The NELRP forms include the following:
The NELRP Application, the Loan
Information and Verification form, the
Employment Verification form, the
Authorization for Release of
Employment Information form, the
Authorization to Release Information
form, the Certification Regarding
Debarment, Suspension,
Disqualification and Related Matters
form, the Certification of Accreditation
Status for School of Nursing Education
Programs form, and the NELRP
Application Checklist and SelfCertification form.
The program is expecting the number
of applications to increase to
approximately 8,000 annual
respondents. This is an increase of 2,500
respondents for registered nurses at
health care facilities and 500
respondents for nurse faculty at eligible
schools of nursing.

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.
Designated New Animal Drugs for
Minor Use and Minor Species; (OMB
Control Number 0910–0605)—Extension
The Minor Use and Minor Species
(MUMS) Animal Health Act of 2004
amended the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act to authorize FDA to
establish new regulatory procedures
intended to make more medications
legally available to veterinarians and
animal owners for the treatment of
minor animal species as well as
uncommon diseases in major animal
species. This legislation provides
incentives designed to help
pharmaceutical companies overcome
the financial burdens they face in
providing limited-demand animal
drugs. These incentives are only
available to sponsors whose drugs are
‘‘MUMS-designated’’ by FDA. Minor use
drugs are drugs for use in major species
(cattle, horses, swine, chickens, turkeys,
PO 00000
Frm 00043
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
dogs, and cats) that are needed for
diseases that occur in only a small
number of animals either because they
occur infrequently or in limited
geographic areas. Minor species are all
animals other than the major species, for
example, zoo animals, ornamental fish,
parrots, ferrets, and guinea pigs. Some
animals of agricultural importance are
also minor species. These include
animals such as sheep, goats, catfish,
and honeybees. Participation in the
MUMS program is completely optional
for drug sponsors so the associated
paperwork only applies to those
sponsors who request and are
subsequently granted ‘‘MUMS
designation.’’ The rule specifies the
criteria and procedures for requesting
MUMS designation as well as the
annual reporting requirements for
MUMS designees.
Under part 516 ( 21 CFR part 516),
§ 516.20 provides requirements on the
content and format of a request for
MUMS-drug designation, § 516.26
provides requirements for amending
MUMS-drug designation, § 516.27
provides provisions for change in
sponsorship of MUMS-drug designation,
§ 516.29 provides provisions for
termination of MUMS-drug designation,
§ 516.30 provides requirements for
annual reports from sponsor(s) of
MUMS-designated drugs, and § 516.36
provides provisions for insufficient
quantities of MUMS-designated drugs.
Respondents are pharmaceutical
companies that sponsor new animal
drugs.
In the Federal Register of July 20,
2010 (75 FR 42094), FDA published a
60-day notice requesting public
comment on the proposed collection of
information. In response, FDA received
