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 March 7, 2011. 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 e-mailed to oira_submission@omb.eop.gov. All comments should be identified with the OMB control number 0910–0154. Also include the FDA docket number found in brackets in the heading of this document.

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. Current Good Manufacturing Practice Regulations for Type A Medicated Articles—21 CFR Part 226 (OMB Control Number 0910–0154)—Extension Under section 501 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 351), FDA has the statutory authority to issue current good manufacturing practice (cGMP) regulations for drugs, including type A medicated articles. A type A medicated article is a feed product containing a concentrated drug diluted with a feed carrier substance. A type A medicated article is intended solely for use in the manufacture of another type A medicated article or a type B or type C medicated feed. Medicated feeds are administered to animals for the prevention, cure, mitigation, or treatment of disease or for growth promotion and feed efficiency. Statutory requirements for cGMPs for type A medicated articles have been codified in part 226 (21 CFR part 226). Type A medicated articles which are not manufactured in accordance with these regulations are considered adulterated under section 501(a)(2)(B) of the FD&C Act. Under part 226, a manufacturer is required to establish, maintain, and retain records for type A medicated articles, including records to document procedures required under the manufacturing process to assure that proper quality control is maintained. Such records would, for example, contain information concerning receipt and inventory of drug components, batch production, laboratory assay results (i.e., batch and stability testing) and product distribution. This information is needed so that FDA can monitor drug usage and possible misformulation of type A medicated articles. The information could also prove useful to FDA in investigating product defects when a drug is recalled. In addition, FDA will use the cGMP criteria in part 226 to determine whether or not the systems used by manufacturers of type A medicated articles are adequate to assure that their medicated articles meet the requirements of the FD&C Act as to safety and also meet the article’s claimed identity, strength, quality, and purity, as required by section 501(a)(2)(B) of the FD&C Act. The respondents for type A medicated articles are pharmaceutical firms that manufacture both human and veterinary drugs, those firms that produce only veterinary drugs, and commercial feed mills. In the Federal Register of November 26, 2010 (75 FR 72827), FDA published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed collection of information. FDA received no comments. FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: TABLE 1—ESTIMATED ANNUAL RECORDKEEPING BURDEN 1 Number of recordkeepers 21 CFR Section Annual frequency per recordkeeping Total annual records Hours per record Total hours 226.42 .................................................... 226.58 .................................................... 226.80 .................................................... 226.102 .................................................. 226.110 .................................................. 226.115 .................................................. 115 115 115 115 115 115 260 260 260 260 260 10 29,900 29,900 29,900 29,900 29,900 1,150 .75 1.75 .75 1.75 .25 .5 22,425 52,325 22,425 52,325 7,475 575 Total ................................................ .............................. .............................. .............................. .............................. 157,550 jdjones on DSK8KYBLC1PROD with NOTICES 1 There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information.

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.

Current Good Manufacturing Practice Regulations for Type A Medicated 
Articles--21 CFR Part 226 (OMB Control Number 0910-0154)--Extension

    Under section 501 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the 
FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 351), FDA has the statutory authority to issue 
current good manufacturing practice (cGMP) regulations for drugs, 
including type A medicated articles. A type A medicated article is a 
feed product containing a concentrated drug diluted with a feed carrier 
substance. A type A medicated article is intended solely for use in the 
manufacture of another type A medicated article or a type B or type C 
medicated feed. Medicated feeds are administered to animals for the 
prevention, cure, mitigation, or treatment of disease or for growth 
promotion and feed efficiency.
    Statutory requirements for cGMPs for type A medicated articles have 
been codified in part 226 (21 CFR part 226). Type A medicated articles 
which are not manufactured in accordance with these regulations are 
considered adulterated under section 501(a)(2)(B) of the FD&C Act. 
Under part 226, a manufacturer is required to establish, maintain, and 
retain records for type A medicated articles, including records to 
document procedures required under the manufacturing process to assure 
that proper quality control is maintained. Such records would, for 
example, contain information concerning receipt and inventory of drug 
components, batch production, laboratory assay results (i.e., batch and 
stability testing) and product distribution.
    This information is needed so that FDA can monitor drug usage and 
possible misformulation of type A medicated articles. The information 
could also prove useful to FDA in investigating product defects when a 
drug is recalled. In addition, FDA will use the cGMP criteria in part 
226 to determine whether or not the systems used by manufacturers of 
type A medicated articles are adequate to assure that their medicated 
articles meet the requirements of the FD&C Act as to safety and also 
meet the article's claimed identity, strength, quality, and purity, as 
required by section 501(a)(2)(B) of the FD&C Act.
    The respondents for type A medicated articles are pharmaceutical 
firms that manufacture both human and veterinary drugs, those firms 
that produce only veterinary drugs, and commercial feed mills.
    In the Federal Register of November 26, 2010 (75 FR 72827), FDA 
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed 
collection of information. FDA received no comments.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows:
