SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background In the Federal Register of January 16, 2013 (78 FR 3646), we published a proposed rule entitled ‘‘Current Good Manufacturing Practice and Hazard Analysis and Risk-Based Preventive Controls for Human Food’’ with a 120day 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). OMB and FDA previously received requests for a 90-day extension of the comment period for the information collection provisions of the proposed rule. We considered the requests and extended the comment period for the information collection for 90 days to make the comment period for the information collection provisions the same as that for the proposed rule—i.e., until May 16, 2013 (Federal Register of February 19, 2013, 78 FR 11611). FDA has now received comments requesting an extension of the comment period on the proposed rule. Each request conveyed concern that the current 120day comment period does not allow sufficient time to develop a meaningful or thoughtful response to the proposed rule. FDA has considered the requests and is granting a 120-day extension of the comment period for the proposed rule. FDA believes that a 120-day extension allows adequate time for interested persons to submit comments without significantly delaying rulemaking on these important issues. We also are extending the comment period for the information collection provisions for 120 days to continue to make the comment period for the information collection provisions the same as the comment period for the provisions of the proposed rule. To clarify, FDA is requesting comment on all issues raised by the proposed rule. II.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    In the Federal Register of January 16, 2013 (78 FR 3646), we 
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).
    OMB and FDA previously received requests for a 90-day extension of 
the comment period for the information collection provisions of the 
proposed rule. We considered the requests and extended the comment 
period for the information collection for 90 days to make the comment 
period for the information collection provisions the same as that for 
the proposed rule--i.e., until May 16, 2013 (Federal Register of 
February 19, 2013, 78 FR 11611). FDA has now received comments 
requesting an extension of the comment period on the proposed rule. 
Each request conveyed concern that the current 120-day comment period 
does not allow sufficient time to develop a meaningful or thoughtful 
response to the proposed rule. FDA has considered the requests and is 
granting a 120-day extension of the comment period for the proposed 
rule. FDA believes that a 120-day extension allows adequate time for 
interested persons to submit comments without significantly delaying 
rulemaking on these important issues. We also are extending the comment 
period for the information collection provisions for 120 days to 
continue to make the comment period for the information collection 
provisions the same as the comment period for the provisions of the 
proposed rule. To clarify, FDA is requesting comment on all issues 
raised by the proposed rule.

II. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

Hazard Analysis and Risk-Based Preventive Controls for Human Food.''

III. Request for Comments
