Comments on the provisions of the rule and on the information collection provisions will inform FDA’s rulemaking to modernize the regulation for ‘‘Current Good Manufacturing Practice In Manufacturing, Packing, or Holding Human Food’’ and to add requirements for domestic and foreign facilities that are required to register under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to establish and implement hazard analysis and riskbased preventive controls for human food. OMB and FDA have received two requests for a 90-day extension of the comment period for the information collection provisions of the proposed rule. The requests conveyed concern that the current 30-day comment period does not allow sufficient time to develop a meaningful or thoughtful response to the information collection provisions submitted to OMB under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. We have considered the requests and are extending the comment period for the information collection for 90 days, until May 16, 2013. We believe that a 90-day extension allows adequate time for interested persons to submit comments without significantly delaying rulemaking on these important issues. A 90-day extension also will make the comment period for the information collection provisions the PO 00000 Frm 00008 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 11611 same as the comment period for the provisions of the proposed rule.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    In the Federal Register of January 16, 2013 (78 FR 3646), FDA 
published a proposed rule entitled ``Current Good Manufacturing 
Practice and Hazard Analysis and Risk-Based Preventive Controls for 
Human Food'' with a 120-day comment period on the provisions of the 
proposed rule and a 30-day comment period on the information collection 
provisions that are subject to review by OMB under the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520). Comments on the provisions 
of the rule and on the information collection provisions will inform 
FDA's rulemaking to modernize the regulation for ``Current Good 
Manufacturing Practice In Manufacturing, Packing, or Holding Human 
Food'' and to add requirements for domestic and foreign facilities that 
are required to register under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act 
to establish and implement hazard analysis and risk-based preventive 
controls for human food.
    OMB and FDA have received two requests for a 90-day extension of 
the comment period for the information collection provisions of the 
proposed rule. The requests conveyed concern that the current 30-day 
comment period does not allow sufficient time to develop a meaningful 
or thoughtful response to the information collection provisions 
submitted to OMB under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
    We have considered the requests and are extending the comment 
period for the information collection for 90 days, until May 16, 2013. 
We believe that a 90-day extension allows adequate time for interested 
persons to submit comments without significantly delaying rulemaking on 
these important issues. A 90-day extension also will make the comment 
period for the information collection provisions the same as the 
comment period for the provisions of the proposed rule.

II. Request for Comments

    Interested persons may either submit electronic comments regarding 
the information collection to oira_submission@omb.eop.gov or fax 
written comments to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, 
OMB, Attn: FDA Desk Officer, FAX: 202-395-7285. All comments should be 
identified with the title ``Current Good Manufacturing Practice and 
Hazard Analysis and Risk-Based Preventive Controls for Human Food.''

    Dated: February 13, 2013.

Assistant Commissioner for Policy.
