The Refugee Microenterprise
Development Program
• Currently, there are twenty two
grantees (respondents) in the program
and the semi-annual progress, which
includes the data and information
required, is submitted twice per year.
• The request covers one form (Form
I. attached) which includes eight data
points. Based on experience (the
information was provided by technical
assistance service provider in the past),
it takes about two hours per respondent
per six months (i.e., four hours per year
per grantee (respondent) or 88 hours per
year for all respondents) to complete the
form.
• No survey will be undertaken since
the collection of this data (information)
is part of the implementation process of
the project and its collection and
reporting does not constitute a separate
and additional cost to the grantees
(respondents). The cost is covered by
the grant the grantee receives. The
grantees have Down Home database
which captures and stores the data
required for reporting. The grantee
uploads the semi-annual report in Grant
Solution where it is stored. ORR derives
the data it requires for reporting and
management decision from Grant
Solution.
The Refugee Home-Based Child Care
Microenterprise Development Group
• Currently, there are twenty three
grantees (respondents) in the program
and the semi-annual progress.
• The request covers one form (Form
II. attached) which includes seven data
points. It takes about two hours per
respondent per six months (i.e., four
hours per year grantee (respondent) or
92 hours per year for all respondents) to
complete the form.
• The collection of this data
(information) is part of the process and
its collection and reporting does not
include separate and additional cost to
the grantees (respondents). The cost is
covered by the grant the grantee
receives. The grantees have database

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal
Agencies must obtain approval from the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined
in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes Agency requests
or requirements that members of the
public submit reports, keep records, or
provide information to a third party.
Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44
U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal
Agencies to provide a 60-day notice in
the Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB
for approval. To comply with this
requirement, FDA is publishing notice
of the proposed collection of
information set forth in this document.
With respect to the following
collection of information, FDA invites
comments on these topics: (1) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
PO 00000
Frm 00036
Fmt 4703

of FDA’s functions, including whether
the information will have practical
utility; (2) the accuracy of FDA’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques,
when appropriate, and other forms of
information technology.
Biological Products: Reporting of
Biological Product Deviations and
Human Cells, Tissues, and Cellular and
Tissue-Based Product Deviations in
Manufacturing; Forms FDA 3486 and
3486A
OMB Control Number 0910–0458—
Extension
Under section 351 of the Public
Health Service Act (PHS Act) (42 U.S.C.
262), all biological products, including
human blood and blood components,
offered for sale in interstate commerce
must be licensed and meet standards,
including those prescribed in the FDA
regulations, designed to ensure the
continued safety, purity, and potency of
such products. In addition under
section 361 of the PHS Act (42 U.S.C.
264), FDA may issue and enforce
regulations necessary to prevent the
introduction, transmission, or spread of
communicable diseases between the
States or possessions or from foreign
countries into the States or possessions.
Further, section 501 of the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the
FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 351) provides that
drugs and devices (including human
blood and blood components) are
adulterated if they do not conform with
current good manufacturing practice
(CGMP) assuring that they meet the
requirements of the FD&C Act.
Establishments manufacturing
biological products, including human
blood and blood components, must
comply with the applicable CGMP
regulations (parts 211, 606, and 820 (21
CFR parts 211, 606, and 820)) and
current good tissue practice (CGTP)
regulations (part 1271 (21 CFR part
1271)) as appropriate. FDA regards
biological product deviation (BPD)
reporting and HCT/P deviation
reporting to be an essential tool in its
directive to protect public health by
establishing and maintaining
surveillance programs that provide
timely and useful information.
Section 600.14 (21 CFR 600.14), in
brief, requires the manufacturer who
E:\FR\FM\07JNN1.SGM
07JNN1
36552
Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 109 / Tuesday, June 7, 2016 / Notices
holds the biological product license, for
other than human blood and blood
components, and who had control over
a distributed product when the
deviation occurred, to report to the
Center for Biologics Evaluation and
Research (CBER) or to the Center for
Drugs Evaluation and Research (CDER)
as soon as possible but at a date not to
exceed 45 calendar days after acquiring
information reasonably suggesting that a
reportable event has occurred. Section
606.171, in brief, requires licensed
manufacturers of human blood and
blood components, including Source
Plasma, unlicensed registered blood
establishments, and transfusion
services, who had control over a
distributed product when the deviation
occurred, to report to CBER as soon as
possible but at a date not to exceed 45
calendar days after acquiring
information reasonably suggesting that a
reportable event has occurred.
Similarly, § 1271.350(b), in brief,
requires HCT/P establishments that
manufacture non-reproductive HCT/Ps
described in § 1271.10 to investigate and
report to CBER all HCT/P deviations
relating to a distributed HCT/P that
relates to the core CGTP requirements,
if the deviation occurred in the
establishment’s facility or in a facility
that performed a manufacturing step for
the establishment under contract,
agreement, or other arrangement. Form
FDA 3486 is used to submit BPD reports
and HCT/P deviation reports.
Respondents to this collection of
information are: (1) Licensed
manufacturers of biological products
other than human blood and blood
components, (2) licensed manufacturers
of blood and blood components
including Source Plasma, (3) unlicensed
registered blood establishments, (4)
transfusion services, and (5)
establishments that manufacture nonreproductive HCT/Ps regulated solely
under section 361 of the PHS Act as
described in § 1271.10. The number of
respondents and total annual responses
are based on the BPD reports and HCT/
P deviation reports FDA received in
fiscal year 2015. The number of licensed
manufacturers and total annual
responses under § 600.14 include the
estimates for BPD reports submitted to
both CBER and CDER. Based on the
information from industry, the
estimated average time to complete a
deviation report is 2 hours, which
includes a minimal one-time burden to
create a user account for those reports
submitted electronically. The
availability of the standardized report
form, Form FDA 3486, and the ability to
submit this report electronically to
CBER (CDER does not currently accept
electronic filings) further streamlines
the report submission process.
CBER has developed a Web-based
addendum to Form FDA 3486 (Form
FDA 3486A) to provide additional
information when a BPD report has been
reviewed by FDA and evaluated as a
possible recall. The additional
information requested includes
information not contained in the Form
FDA 3486 such as: (1) Distribution
pattern; (2) method of consignee
notification; (3) consignee(s) of products
for further manufacture; (4) additional
product information; (5) updated
product disposition; and (6) industry
recall contacts. This information is
requested by CBER through email
notification to the submitter of the BPD
report. This information is used by
CBER for recall classification purposes.
At this time, Form FDA 3486A is being
used only for those BPD reports
submitted under § 606.171. CBER
estimates that 5 percent of the total BPD
reports submitted to CBER under
§ 606.171 would need additional
information submitted in Form FDA
3486A. CBER further estimates that it
would take between 10 to 20 minutes to
complete Form FDA 3486A. For
calculation purposes, CBER is using 15
minutes.
Activities such as investigating,
changing standard operating procedures
or processes, and followup are currently
required under parts 211 (approved
under OMB control number 0910–0139),
part 606 (approved under OMB control
number 0910–0116), part 820 (approved
under OMB control number 0910–0073),
and part 1271 (approved under OMB
control number 0910–0543) and,
therefore, are not included in the
burden calculation for the separate
requirement of submitting a deviation
report to FDA.

reporting and HCT/P deviation reporting to be an essential tool in its
directive to protect public health by establishing and maintaining
surveillance programs that provide timely and useful information.
Section 600.14 (21 CFR 600.14), in brief, requires the manufacturer
who
[[Page 36552]]
holds the biological product license, for other than human blood and
blood components, and who had control over a distributed product when
the deviation occurred, to report to the Center for Biologics
Evaluation and Research (CBER) or to the Center for Drugs Evaluation
and Research (CDER) as soon as possible but at a date not to exceed 45
calendar days after acquiring information reasonably suggesting that a
reportable event has occurred. Section 606.171, in brief, requires
licensed manufacturers of human blood and blood components, including
Source Plasma, unlicensed registered blood establishments, and
transfusion services, who had control over a distributed product when
the deviation occurred, to report to CBER as soon as possible but at a
date not to exceed 45 calendar days after acquiring information
reasonably suggesting that a reportable event has occurred. Similarly,
Sec. 1271.350(b), in brief, requires HCT/P establishments that
manufacture non-reproductive HCT/Ps described in Sec. 1271.10 to
investigate and report to CBER all HCT/P deviations relating to a
distributed HCT/P that relates to the core CGTP requirements, if the
deviation occurred in the establishment's facility or in a facility
that performed a manufacturing step for the establishment under
contract, agreement, or other arrangement. Form FDA 3486 is used to
submit BPD reports and HCT/P deviation reports.
Respondents to this collection of information are: (1) Licensed
manufacturers of biological products other than human blood and blood
components, (2) licensed manufacturers of blood and blood components
including Source Plasma, (3) unlicensed registered blood
establishments, (4) transfusion services, and (5) establishments that
manufacture non-reproductive HCT/Ps regulated solely under section 361
of the PHS Act as described in Sec. 1271.10. The number of respondents
and total annual responses are based on the BPD reports and HCT/P
deviation reports FDA received in fiscal year 2015. The number of
licensed manufacturers and total annual responses under Sec. 600.14
include the estimates for BPD reports submitted to both CBER and CDER.
Based on the information from industry, the estimated average time to
complete a deviation report is 2 hours, which includes a minimal one-
time burden to create a user account for those reports submitted
electronically. The availability of the standardized report form, Form
FDA 3486, and the ability to submit this report electronically to CBER
(CDER does not currently accept electronic filings) further streamlines
the report submission process.
CBER has developed a Web-based addendum to Form FDA 3486 (Form FDA
3486A) to provide additional information when a BPD report has been
reviewed by FDA and evaluated as a possible recall. The additional
information requested includes information not contained in the Form
FDA 3486 such as: (1) Distribution pattern; (2) method of consignee
notification; (3) consignee(s) of products for further manufacture; (4)
additional product information; (5) updated product disposition; and
(6) industry recall contacts. This information is requested by CBER
through email notification to the submitter of the BPD report. This
information is used by CBER for recall classification purposes. At this
time, Form FDA 3486A is being used only for those BPD reports submitted
under Sec. 606.171. CBER estimates that 5 percent of the total BPD
reports submitted to CBER under Sec. 606.171 would need additional
information submitted in Form FDA 3486A. CBER further estimates that it
would take between 10 to 20 minutes to complete Form FDA 3486A. For
calculation purposes, CBER is using 15 minutes.
Activities such as investigating, changing standard operating
procedures or processes, and followup are currently required under
parts 211 (approved under OMB control number 0910-0139), part 606
(approved under OMB control number 0910-0116), part 820 (approved under
OMB control number 0910-0073), and part 1271 (approved under OMB
control number 0910-0543) and, therefore, are not included in the
burden calculation for the separate requirement of submitting a
deviation report to FDA.
FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as
