Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 74 / Wednesday, April 17, 2013 / Notices
sroberts on DSK5SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
requirements are penicillins. This
guidance explains that, due to the
potential health risks of crosscontamination, the Agency expects
separation for all classes of beta-lactam
drugs, including penicillins as well as
non-penicillin beta-lactams.
Specifically, FDA recommends that
manufacturers establish appropriate
separation and control systems designed
to prevent two types of contamination:
(1) The contamination of a nonpenicillin beta-lactam by any other nonpenicillin beta-lactam and (2) the
contamination of any other type of
product by a non-penicillin beta-lactam.
Accordingly, FDA recommends that the
area in which any class of sensitizing
beta-lactam is manufactured should be
separated from areas in which any other
products are manufactured, and should
have an independent air handling
system.
A draft version of this guidance was
published in March 2011 as ‘‘NonPenicillin Beta-Lactam Risk Assessment:
A CGMP Framework.’’ This final
version was revised in response to
docket comments to clarify that this
guidance does not provide a formal risk
assessment, but, rather, describes FDA’s
expectations and recommendations for
separation strategies to prevent crosscontamination.
This guidance is being issued
consistent with FDA’s good guidance
practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115).
The guidance represents the Agency’s
current thinking on Non-Penicillin BetaLactam Drugs: A CGMP Framework for
Preventing Cross-Contamination. It does
not create or confer any rights for or on
any person and does not operate to bind
FDA or the public. An alternative
approach may be used if such approach
satisfies the requirements of the
applicable statutes and regulations.

Comment Request
ACTION:
Notice.
In compliance with the
requirement for opportunity for public
comment on proposed data collection
projects (Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of Title
44, United States Code, as amended by
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
Pub. L. 104–13), the Health Resources
and Services Administration (HRSA)
publishes periodic summaries of
proposed projects being developed for
submission to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. To request more
information on the proposed project or
to obtain a copy of the data collection
plans and draft instruments, email
paperwork@hrsa.gov or call the HRSA
Reports Clearance Officer at (301) 443–
1984.
HRSA especially requests comments
on: (1) The necessity and utility of the
proposed information collection for the
proper performance of the agency’s
functions, (2) the accuracy of the
estimated burden, (3) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected, and (4) the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology to minimize the information
collection burden.

and Other Facilities (HCOF) program
provides congressionally-directed funds
to health-related facilities for
construction related activities and/or
capital equipment purchases. Awarded
facilities are required to provide a
periodic (quarterly for construction
related projects, annually for equipment
only projects) update of the status of the
funded project until it is completed. The
monitoring period averages about three
years, although some projects take up to
five years to complete. The information
collected from these updates is vital to
program management staff to determine
whether projects are progressing
according to the established timeframes,
meeting deadlines established in the
Notice of Award, and drawing down
funds appropriately. The data collected
from the updates is also shared with the
Division of Grants Management
Operations for their assistance in the
overall evaluation of each project’s
progress.
An electronic form is currently being
used for progress reporting for the
HCOF program. This form provides
awardees access to directly input the
required status update information in a
timely, consistent, and uniform manner.
The electronic form minimizes burden
to respondents and informs respondents
when there are missing data elements
prior to submission. We acknowledge a
change in the burden estimate due to
close out of old projects.
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose or provide the information
requested. This includes the time
needed to review instructions, to
develop, acquire, install and utilize
technology and systems for the purpose
of collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information, to train
personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information, to search
data sources, to complete and review
the collection of information, and to
transmit or otherwise disclose the
information. The total annual burden
hours estimated for this Information
Collection Request are summarized in
the table below.
