Proposed Project
Annual Submission of the Ingredients
Added to, and the Quantity of Nicotine
Contained in, Smokeless Tobacco
Manufactured, Imported, or Packaged in
the U.S. (OMB No. 0920–0338, exp. 4/
30/2011)—Extension—National Center
for Chronic Disease Prevention and
Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC), Office on Smoking
and Health (OSH) has the primary
responsibility for the Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS)
smoking and health program. HHS’s
overall goal is to reduce death and
disability resulting from the use of
smokeless tobacco products and other
forms of tobacco use through programs
of information, education and research.
Since 1994, as required by the
Comprehensive Smokeless Tobacco
Education Act of 1986 (CSTHEA, 15
U.S.C. 4401 et seq., Pub. L. 99–252),
CDC has collected information about the
ingredients used in smokeless tobacco
products and their nicotine content.
Respondents are commercial smokeless
tobacco product manufacturers,
packagers, or importers (or their
representatives), who are required by
the CSTHEA to submit ingredient
reports to HHS on an annual basis.
Respondents are not required to
submit specific forms; however, they are
required to meet reporting guidelines
and to submit the ingredient report by
chemical name and Chemical Abstract
Service (CAS) Registration Number,
consistent with accepted reporting
practices for other companies currently
required to report ingredients added to
other consumer products. Typically,
respondents submit a summary report to
CDC with the ingredient information for
multiple products, or a statement that
there are no changes to their previously
submitted ingredient report.
Ingredient reports for new products
are due at the time of first importation.
Thereafter, ingredient reports are due
annually on March 31. Information is
submitted to OSH by mailing a written
report on the respondent’s letterhead, by
CD, three-inch floppy disk, or thumb
drive. Electronic mail submissions are
not accepted.
Upon receipt and verification of the
annual ingredient and nicotine data
reports, OSH issues a Certificate of
Compliance to the respondent. OSH also
uses the information to report to the
Congress (as deemed appropriate)
discussing the health effects of these
ingredients.
In this Extension request, there no
changes to the estimated number of
respondents, the estimated burden per
response, or the information collection
methods. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time. The
total estimated annualized burden hours
are 18,843.

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,
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.
Customer/Partner Service Surveys (OMB
Control Number 0910–0360)—Extension
Under section 903 of the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C.
393), FDA is authorized to conduct
research and public information
programs about regulated products and
responsibilities of the agency. Executive
Order 12862, entitled, ‘‘Setting Customer
Service Standard,’’ directs Federal
agencies that ‘‘provide significant
services directly to the public’’ to
‘‘survey customers to determine the kind
and quality of services they want and
their level of satisfaction with existing
services.’’ FDA is seeking OMB
clearance to conduct a series of surveys
to implement Executive Order 12862.
Participation in the surveys is
voluntary. This request covers
customer/partner service surveys of
regulated entities, such as food
processors; cosmetic drug, biologic and
medical device manufacturers;
consumers; and health professionals.
The request also covers ‘‘partner’’ (State
and local governments) customer
service surveys.
FDA will use the information from
these surveys to identify strengths and
weaknesses in service to customers/
partners and to make improvements.
The surveys will measure timeliness,
appropriateness and accuracy of
information, courtesy and problem
resolution in the context of individual
programs.
FDA estimates conducting 15
customer/partner service surveys per
year, each requiring an average of 15
minutes for review and completion. We
estimate respondents to these surveys to
be between 100 and 10,000 customers.
Some of these surveys will be repeats of
earlier surveys for purposes of
monitoring customer/partner service
and developing long-term data.
FDA estimates the burden of this
collection of information as follows:
