and investigational devices.
II. Criteria for Members
Persons nominated for membership as
consumer representatives on the
committees or panels should meet the
following criteria: (1) Demonstrate ties
to consumer and community-based
organizations, (2) be able to analyze
technical data, (3) understand research
design, (4) discuss benefits and risks,
and (5) evaluate the safety and efficacy
of products under review. The
consumer representative should be able
to represent the consumer perspective
on issues and actions before the
advisory committee; serve as a liaison
between the committee and interested
consumers, associations, coalitions, and
consumer organizations; and facilitate
dialogue with the advisory committees
on scientific issues that affect
consumers.

III. Selection Procedures
Selection of members representing
consumer interests is conducted
through procedures that include the use
of organizations representing the public
interest and public advocacy groups.
These organizations recommend
nominees for the Agency’s selection.
Representatives from the consumer
health branches of Federal, State, and
local governments also may participate
in the selection process. Any consumer
organization interested in participating
in the selection of an appropriate voting
or nonvoting member to represent
consumer interests should send a letter
stating that interest to FDA (see
ADDRESSES) within 30 days of
publication of this document.
Within the subsequent 30 days, FDA
will compile a list of consumer
organizations that will participate in the
selection process and will forward to
each such organization a ballot listing
three to five qualified nominees selected
by the Agency based on the nominations
received, together with each nominee’s
current curriculum vitae or resume.
Ballots are to be filled out and returned
to FDA within 30 days. The nominee
receiving the highest number of votes
ordinarily will be selected to serve as
the member representing consumer
interests for that particular advisory
committee or panel.
IV. Nomination Procedures
Any interested person or organization
may nominate one or more qualified
persons to represent consumer interests
on the Agency’s advisory committees or
panels. Self-nominations are also
accepted. Potential candidates will be
required to provide detailed information

concerning such matters as financial
holdings, employment, and research
grants and/or contracts to permit
evaluation of possible sources of
conflicts of interest.
All nominations should include: a
cover letter; a curriculum vitae or
resume that includes the nominee’s
office address, telephone number, and
email address; and a list of consumer or
community-based organizations for
which the candidate can demonstrate
active participation.
Nominations also should specify the
advisory committee(s) or panel(s) for
which the nominee is recommended. In
addition, nominations should include
confirmation that the nominee is aware
of the nomination and is willing to serve
as a member of the advisory committee
or panel if selected.
The term of office is up to 4 years.
FDA will review all nominations
received within the specified
timeframes and prepare a ballot
containing the names of qualified
nominees. Names not selected will
remain on a list of eligible nominees
and be reviewed periodically by FDA to
determine continued interest. Upon
selecting qualified nominees for the
ballot, FDA will provide those
consumer organizations that are
participating in the selection process
with the opportunity to vote on the
listed nominees. Only organizations
vote in the selection process. Persons
who nominate themselves to serve as
voting or nonvoting consumer
representatives will not participate in
the selection process.
FDA seeks to include the views of
women and men, members of all racial
and ethnic groups, and individuals with
and without disabilities on its advisory
committees and therefore, encourages
nominations of appropriately qualified
candidates from these groups.
This notice is issued under the
Federal Advisory Committee Act (5
U.S.C. app. 2) and 21 CFR part 14
relating to advisory committees.
Dated: February 15, 2013.

Submission for OMB review; Comment
Request: Methodological Studies for
the Population Assessment of
Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study
Under the provisions of
Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the National
Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), 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
SUMMARY:
the Federal Register on November 26,
2012, Vol. 77, No. 227, p. 70451 and
allowed 60-days for public comment.
Two comments were received in
support of this request. 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: Cognitive
Testing of Instrumentation and
Materials for Population Assessment of
Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study.
Type of Information Collection Request:
New. Need and Use of Information

establish a population-based framework
for monitoring and assessing the
behavioral and health impacts of
regulatory provisions implemented as
part of the Family Smoking Prevention
and Tobacco Control Act (FSPTCA) by
the Food and Drug Administration
(FDA). NIDA is requesting generic
approval from OMB for methodological
studies to improve the PATH study
instrumentation and data collection
procedures. These methodological
studies will support ongoing assessment
and refinement of the PATH study’s
design, and highlight ways to improve
study implementation, data collection
procedures, and techniques for retention
and followup. Data collection methods
to be used in these methodological
studies include: in-person and
telephone surveys; web and
smartphone/mobile phone surveys; and
focus group and individual in-depth
qualitative interviews. Biospecimens
may also be collected from adults.
Frequency of Response: Annual [As
needed on an on-going and concurrent
basis]. Affected Public: Individuals.
Type of Respondents: Youth (ages 12–
17) and Adults (ages 18+). Annual
