collection of information to OMB for
review and clearance.
Animal Food Labeling; Declaration of
Certifiable Color Additives
OMB Control Number 0910–0721—
Extension
This information collection is
associated with requirements under
§ 501.22(k) (21 CFR 501.22(k)) in which
animal food manufacturers must declare
the presence of certified and
noncertified color additives in their
animal food products on the product
label. We issued this regulation in
response to the Nutrition Labeling and
Education Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101–535)
to make animal food regulations
consistent with the regulations
regarding the declaration of color
additives on human food labels and to
provide animal owners with
information on the color additives used
in animal food. Animal owners use the
information to become knowledgeable
(Response) We based our estimate of
the number of respondents on the
number of pet food manufacturers
subject to this regulation. The figure of
3,120 used in table 1 was derived from
the number of establishments listed
under North American Industrial
Classification System codes 311111 and
311119, including very small
establishments. As noted in the 60-day
notice, we based our estimate of the
flow of new products on A.C. Nielsen
data for the number of animal food
product units for sale (for which sales
of the products are greater than zero) in
the latest year for which data is
available, stated to be 25,874. Then, we
assumed that the flow of new products
would be 10 percent per year, for a
figure of 2,587 new products per year.
That figure was used in table 1 as our
estimate of the total annual disclosures.
FDA estimates the burden of this
collection of information as follows:
about the foods they purchase for their
animals. Color additive information
enables a consumer to comparison shop
and to avoid substances to which their
animals may be sensitive.
Description of Respondents:
Respondents to this collection of
information are manufacturers of pet
food products that contain color
additives. In the Federal Register of
February 20, 2018 (83 FR 7198), FDA
published a 60-day notice requesting
public comment on the proposed
collection of information.
(Comment) One comment was
received that supported FDA’s need for
the information collection and
characterized the burden of the
information collection as low compared
to the importance of informative food
labels. The comment did not suggest
revising our estimate of the burden.
However, it suggested we should
provide greater detail about how we
estimated the number of respondents
and the flow of new products.

are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information.
The requirement became effective
November 18, 2013; thus, we estimate
that the burden associated with the
labeling requirements under § 501.22(k)
applies only to new product labels.
Because the vast majority of animal food
products that contain certified color
additives are pet foods, we limit our
burden estimate to reviewing labels for
the use of certified color additives to pet
food manufacturers subject to this
regulation. Based on A.C. Nielsen data,
we estimate that the number of animal
food product units subject to § 501.22(k)
for which sales of the products are
greater than zero is 25,874. Assuming
that the flow of new products is 10
percent per year, then 2,587 new animal
food products subject to § 501.22(k) will
become available on the market each
year. We also estimate that there are
approximately 3,120 manufacturers of
pet food subject to either § 501.22(k)(1)
or (2). Assuming the approximately
2,587 new products are split equally
among the firms, then each firm would
prepare labels for approximately 0.8292
new products per year (2,587 new
products—3,120 firms is approximately
0.8292 labels per firm). We expect that
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 244001
firms prepare the required labeling for
their products in a manner that takes
into account at one time all information
required to be disclosed on their
product labels. Based on our experience
with reviewing pet food labeling, we
estimate that firms would require less
than 0.25 hour (15 minutes) per product
to comply with the requirement to
include the color additive information
pursuant to § 501.22(k). The total
burden of this activity is 647 hours
(2,587 labels × 0.25 hour/label is
approximately 647 hours). The burden
for this information collection has not
changed since the last OMB approval.

Requests for Oral Presentations: During online registration you may
indicate if you wish to present during a public comment session or
participate in a specific session, and which topic(s) you wish to
address. We will do our best to accommodate requests to make public
comments. Individuals and organizations with common interests are urged
to consolidate or coordinate their presentations or request time for a
joint presentation. Following the close of registration, we will
determine the amount of time allotted to each presenter and the
approximate time each oral presentation is to begin, and will select
and notify participants by August 10, 2018. All requests to make oral
presentations must be received by the close of registration on August
6, 2018. If selected for presentation, any presentation materials must
be emailed to [email protected] no later
than August 14, 2018. No commercial or promotional material will be
permitted to be presented or distributed at the public workshop.
