Table 1 provides our estimate of the total annual recordkeeping burden of our regulations in part 120. We base our estimate of the average burden per recordkeeping on our experience with the application of HACCP principles in food processing. We base our estimate of the number of recordkeepers on our estimate of the total number of juice manufacturing plants affected by the regulations (plants identified in our official establishment inventory plus very small apple juice and very small orange juice manufacturers). These estimates assume that every processor will prepare sanitary standard operating procedures and an HACCP plan and maintain the associated monitoring records, and that every importer will require product safety specifications. In fact, there are likely to be some small number of juice processors that, based upon their hazard analysis, determine that they are not required to have an HACCP plan under these regulations. tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Number of records per recordkeeper Dated: November 15, 2013.

The draft guidance clarifies these requirements and articulates the circumstances under which FDA intends to exercise enforcement discretion. The disclosure of the product name in promotional labeling and advertising for all prescription human and animal drug and biological products is important for the proper identification of such products to ensure their safe and effective use.

These regulations are also applicable to biological product labeling and advertising materials. The recommendations in the draft guidance pertain to product names in traditional print media promotion (e.g., journal ads, detail aids, brochures), audiovisual promotional labeling (e.g., E:\FR\FM\20NON1.SGM 20NON1
