SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS I. Background In the Federal Register of December 24, 2013, we published a proposed rule entitled ‘‘Focused Mitigation Strategies to Protect Food Against Intentional Adulteration’’ with a 100-day comment period on the provisions of the proposed rule and on the information collection provisions that are subject to review by OMB under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520). FDA has received requests for an extension of the comment period on the proposed rule. The requests conveyed concern that the current 100-day comment period does not allow time to thoroughly analyze the proposed rule since this is unlike any other proposal and due to the inherent complexity and unique nature of food defense issues. The requests also stated an extended comment period would allow interested persons an opportunity to fully review and analyze the approaches FDA has proposed for the rule and its potential impact as well as consider the complexity and if the proposal has the flexibility to address the many types of food operations that will be affected. FDA has considered the requests and is granting an extension of the comment period to June 30, 2014, for the ‘‘Focused Mitigation Strategies to Protect Food Against Intentional Adulteration’’ proposed rule to allow interested persons additional time to submit comments. We also are extending the comment period for the information collection provisions to June 30, 2014, to make the comment period for the information collection provisions the same as the comment period for the provisions of the VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:23 Mar 24, 2014 Jkt 232001 proposed rule. To clarify, FDA is requesting comment on all issues raised by the proposed rule. II. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 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.
