Food and Drug Administration,
HHS.
ACTION:
Notice.
The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is announcing
that a proposed collection of
information has been submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and clearance under
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
DATES: Fax written comments on the
collection of information by June 7,
2019.
SUMMARY:
To ensure that comments on
the information collection are received,
OMB recommends that written
comments be faxed to the Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs,
OMB, Attn: FDA Desk Officer, Fax: 202–
395–7285, or emailed to oira_
submission@omb.eop.gov. All
comments should be identified with the
OMB control number 0910–0659. Also
include the FDA docket number found
in brackets in the heading of this
document.
ADDRESSES:
Sponsors of approved or conditionally
approved applications for new animal
drugs containing an antimicrobial active
ingredient are required by section 512 of
the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic
Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 360b) to
submit to FDA an annual report on the
amount of each such ingredient in the
drug that is sold or distributed for use
in food-producing animals. Sponsors are
also required to maintain distribution
records for their animal drug products,
including separate information for each
month of the calendar year, under
section 512(l)(3) of the FD&C Act. These
provisions were enacted to assist FDA
in our continuing analysis of the
interactions (including drug resistance),
efficacy, and safety of antimicrobials
approved for use in both humans and
food-producing animals for the purpose
of mitigating the public health risk
associated with antimicrobial resistance.
Section 514.87 of our regulations (21
CFR 514.87) codifies the reporting
requirements established in the FD&C
Act. Sponsors submit antimicrobial
animal drug sales and distribution
reports to the Agency on Form FDA
3744. Each report must specify: (1) The
amount of each antimicrobial active
ingredient by container size, strength,
and dosage form; (2) quantities
distributed domestically and quantities
exported; and (3) a listing of the target
animals, indications, and production
classes that are specified on the
approved label of the product. The
report must cover the period of the
preceding calendar year and include
separate information for each month of
the calendar year. Each report must also
provide a species-specific estimate of
the percentage of each product that was
sold or distributed domestically in the
reporting year for use in cattle, swine,
chickens, or turkeys for such species
that appear on the approved label.
Collection of information on the
amount of animal antimicrobials being
distributed, including species-specific
information, is necessary to support our
ongoing efforts to encourage the
judicious use of antimicrobials in foodproducing animals to help ensure the
continued availability of safe and
effective antimicrobials for animals and
humans. We intend to use these data to
supplement existing information,
including data collected under the
National Animal Health Monitoring
System and the National Antimicrobial
Resistance Monitoring System
programs. Data from multiple sources
are needed to provide a comprehensive
and science-based picture of
antimicrobial drug use and resistance in
animal agriculture.
In the Federal Register of October 1,
2018 (83 FR 49395), FDA published a
60-day notice requesting public
comment on the proposed collection of
information. No comments were
received.
FDA estimates the burden of this
collection of information as follows:

We base our estimate of the average
burden per response on our recent
experience with the existing
antimicrobial animal drug distribution
reports program. We base our estimate
of the number of affected respondents
reported in tables 1 and 2 and the
average number of responses per
respondent in table 1 on a review of our
records of sponsors with active and
inactive applications. We estimate that
20 sponsors will have active
applications, and we assume that half of
the respondents will report
electronically, while the other half will
report on paper. We estimate that 10
sponsors with active applications will
spend 62 hours annually to assemble
the necessary information, prepare, and
submit an annual antimicrobial animal
drug sales and distribution report on
paper, and 10 sponsors with active
applications will spend 52 hours
annually to assemble the necessary
information, prepare, and electronically
submit an annual antimicrobial animal
drug sales and distribution report. We
estimate that seven sponsors will have
inactive applications, and we assume
that half of these respondents will
report electronically, while the other
half will report on paper. We estimate
that sponsors with inactive applications
will spend 2 hours to prepare their
annual antimicrobial animal drug sales
and distribution reports, whether
electronically or on paper.

1 There
are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information.
Animal drug manufacturers are
already required to maintain
distribution records for their animal
drug products to comply with FDA’s
current good manufacturing regulations
for periodic drug reports under
§ 514.80(b)(4)(i) (21 CFR 514.80(b)(4)(i)),
approved under OMB control number
0910–0284. Section 512(l)(3) of the
FD&C Act differs from § 514.80(b)(4)(i)
in that it requires that records include
separate information for each month of
the calendar year. In addition, under 21
CFR 211.196 (approved under OMB
control number 0910–0139),
manufacturers currently are required to
maintain distribution records that
include dosage form and the date the
drug is distributed. Based on these
requirements, FDA believes that
manufacturers already keep detailed
records of the dates when antimicrobial
drugs are distributed for marketing and
recall purposes from which monthly
reports can be prepared as part of usual
and customary business practices.
However, FDA estimates an additional
recordkeeping burden of 54 hours for
further compliance with section
512(l)(3) of the FD&C Act, as detailed in
table 2.
Based on a review of the information
collection since our last request for
OMB approval, which was submitted
with a final rule, we have made no
adjustments to our burden estimates as
reported in tables 1 and 2, other than to
remove the one-time burden of 787
hours, which represented the time
needed to review the provisions of the
final rule and develop a compliance
plan in the first year of compliance.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for
review and clearance.
Antimicrobial Animal Drug Distribution Reports and Recordkeeping--21
CFR 514.87
OMB Control Number 0910-0659--Extension
Sponsors of approved or conditionally approved applications for new
animal drugs containing an antimicrobial active ingredient are required
by section 512 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act)
(21 U.S.C. 360b) to submit to FDA an annual report on the amount of
each such ingredient in the drug that is sold or distributed for use in
food-producing animals. Sponsors are also required to maintain
distribution records for their animal drug products, including separate
information for each month of the calendar year, under section
512(l)(3) of the FD&C Act. These provisions were enacted to assist FDA
in our continuing analysis of the interactions (including drug
resistance), efficacy, and safety of antimicrobials approved for use in
both humans and food-producing animals for the purpose of mitigating
the public health risk associated with antimicrobial resistance.
Section 514.87 of our regulations (21 CFR 514.87) codifies the
reporting requirements established in the FD&C Act. Sponsors submit
antimicrobial animal drug sales and distribution reports to the Agency
on Form FDA 3744. Each report must specify: (1) The amount of each
antimicrobial active ingredient by container size, strength, and dosage
form; (2) quantities distributed domestically and quantities exported;
and (3) a listing of the target animals, indications, and production
classes that are specified on the approved label of the product. The
report must cover the period of the preceding calendar year and include
separate information for each month of the calendar year. Each report
must also provide a species-specific estimate of the percentage of each
product that was sold or distributed domestically in the reporting year
for use in cattle, swine, chickens, or turkeys for such species that
appear on the approved label.
Collection of information on the amount of animal antimicrobials
being distributed, including species-specific information, is necessary
to support our ongoing efforts to encourage the judicious use of
antimicrobials in food-producing animals to help ensure the continued

resistance in animal agriculture.
In the Federal Register of October 1, 2018 (83 FR 49395), FDA
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed
collection of information. No comments were received.
FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as

We base our estimate of the average burden per response on our
recent experience with the existing antimicrobial animal drug
distribution reports program. We base our estimate of the number of
affected respondents reported in tables 1 and 2 and the average number
of responses per respondent in table 1 on a review of our records of
sponsors with active and inactive applications. We estimate that 20
sponsors will have active applications, and we assume that half of the
respondents will report electronically, while the other half will
report on paper. We estimate that 10 sponsors with active applications
will spend 62 hours annually to assemble the necessary information,
prepare, and submit an annual antimicrobial animal drug sales and
distribution report on paper, and 10 sponsors with active applications
will spend 52 hours annually to assemble the necessary information,
prepare, and electronically submit an annual antimicrobial animal drug
sales and distribution report. We estimate that seven sponsors will
have inactive applications, and we assume that half of these
respondents will report electronically, while the other half will
report on paper. We estimate that sponsors with inactive applications
will spend 2 hours to prepare their annual antimicrobial animal drug
sales and distribution reports, whether electronically or on paper.
