Download as PDF 55160 Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 199 / Tuesday, October 15, 2019 / Notices when determining priorities for updating guidance documents and will revise these as resources permit. Consistent with the Good Guidance Practices regulation at 21 CFR 10.115(f)(4), CDRH would appreciate suggestions that CDRH revise or withdraw an already existing guidance document. We request that the suggestion clearly explain why the guidance document should be revised or withdrawn and, if applicable, how it should be revised. While we are requesting feedback on the list of previously issued final guidances located in the annual agenda website, feedback on any guidance is appreciated and will be considered. In FY 2019, CDRH received comments regarding guidances issued in 2009, 1999, and 1989, and has withdrawn three guidance documents in response to comments received and because these guidance documents were determined to no longer represent the Agency’s current thinking. The revision of several guidance documents is also being considered as resources permit. III. Website Location of Guidance Lists khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES This notice announces the website location of the document that provides the A and B lists of guidance documents, which CDRH is intending to publish during FY 2020. To access these two lists, visit FDA’s website at https:// www.fda.gov/medical-devices/guidancedocuments-medical-devices-andradiation-emitting-products/cdrhproposed-guidance-development. We note that the topics on this and past guidance priority lists may be removed or modified based on current priorities, as well as comments received regarding these lists. Furthermore, FDA and CDRH priorities are subject to change at any time (e.g., newly identified safety issues). The Agency is not required to publish every guidance on either list if the resources needed would be to the detriment of meeting quantitative review timelines and statutory obligations. In addition, the Agency is not precluded from issuing guidance documents that are not on either list. Dated: October 8, 2019. Lowell J. Schiller, Principal Associate Commissioner for Policy.

In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Guidance for Industry on Registering With the Center for Veterinary Medicine’s Electronic Submission System—21 CFR 11.2 OMB Control Number 0910–0454— Extension FDA’s ‘‘Electronic Records; Electronic Signatures’’ regulation (21 CFR part 11) requires that we identify in the Electronic Submission Docket (Docket No. FDA–1992–S–0039) the types of documents or parts of documents acceptable for official electronic PO 00000 Frm 00027 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 submission. FDA’s Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM) has placed notifications in that docket identifying documents acceptable for electronic submission to the Center, as required by 21 CFR 11.2. CVM’s ability to receive and process information submitted electronically is limited by its current information technology capabilities and the requirements of FDA’s ‘‘Electronic Records; Electronic Signatures’’ regulation. The FDA Electronic Submissions Gateway (ESG) is an Agency-wide solution for accepting electronic regulatory submissions. The FDA ESG enables the secure submission of premarket and postmarket regulatory information for review. The FDA ESG is the central transmission point for sending information electronically to FDA. Within that context, the FDA ESG is a conduit along which submissions travel to reach the proper FDA Center or Office. The CVM’s Electronic Submission System (ESS) is a Centerwide solution for accepting electronic regulatory submissions. The CVM ESS is used to accept electronic submissions for animal and veterinary products. Our Guidance for Industry (GFI) #108 entitled ‘‘Registering with the Center for Veterinary Medicine’s Electronic Submission System’’ outlines general standards to be used for the submission of any electronic information to CVM using the FDA ESG, including how to register with the CVM ESS using Form FDA 3538, ‘‘Electronic Submission System Participant Management.’’ Registering with the CVM ESS allows respondents to send electronic regulatory submissions to the Office of New Animal Drug Evaluation, the Office of Surveillance and Compliance’s Division of Animal Feeds and Division of Surveillance, and the Office of Minor Use and Minor Species Animal Drug Development. Respondents use GFI #108 and Form FDA 3538 to facilitate the electronic submission of regulatory information. We use the information collected with Form FDA 3538 to register respondents to use the CVM ESS. Description of Respondents: The respondents are submitters of regulatory information to CVM. In the Federal Register of April 16, 2019 (84 FR 15621), 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: E:\FR\FM\15OCN1.SGM 15OCN1 Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 199 / Tuesday, October 15, 2019 / Notices 55161 TABLE 1—ESTIMATED ANNUAL REPORTING BURDEN 1 Number of respondents 21 CFR section FDA form No. 11.2 ...................

Total hours 20 are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. In the 60-day notice published April 16, 2019, we based our estimate of 179 respondents per year on our experience with the submission of electronic information using the CVM ESS and the number of electronic registration or change requests received between January 1, 2018, and November 30, 2018. We are now adjusting our estimate to 193 respondents per year to better reflect the data for the time period January 1 to December 31, 2018. Using these new figures, our estimated burden for the information collection reflects an overall increase from the previous OMB approval of 17 hours and a corresponding increase of 213 responses. We attribute this adjustment to the reauthorizations of both the Animal Drug User Fee Act and the Animal Generic Drug User Fee Act, which require sponsors to submit information electronically to the CVM’s Office of New Animal Drug Evaluation. Because of this requirement, sponsors are now registering to use the CVM ESS in greater numbers than in previous years.

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.

Guidance for Industry on Registering With the Center for Veterinary 
Medicine's Electronic Submission System--21 CFR 11.2

OMB Control Number 0910-0454--Extension

    FDA's ``Electronic Records; Electronic Signatures'' regulation (21 
CFR part 11) requires that we identify in the Electronic Submission 
Docket (Docket No. FDA-1992-S-0039) the types of documents or parts of 
documents acceptable for official electronic submission. FDA's Center 
for Veterinary Medicine (CVM) has placed notifications in that docket 
identifying documents acceptable for electronic submission to the 
Center, as required by 21 CFR 11.2. CVM's ability to receive and 
process information submitted electronically is limited by its current 
information technology capabilities and the requirements of FDA's 
``Electronic Records; Electronic Signatures'' regulation.
    The FDA Electronic Submissions Gateway (ESG) is an Agency-wide 
solution for accepting electronic regulatory submissions. The FDA ESG 
enables the secure submission of premarket and postmarket regulatory 
information for review. The FDA ESG is the central transmission point 
for sending information electronically to FDA. Within that context, the 
FDA ESG is a conduit along which submissions travel to reach the proper 
FDA Center or Office. The CVM's Electronic Submission System (ESS) is a 
Center-wide solution for accepting electronic regulatory submissions. 
The CVM ESS is used to accept electronic submissions for animal and 
veterinary products.
    Our Guidance for Industry (GFI) #108 entitled ``Registering with 
the Center for Veterinary Medicine's Electronic Submission System'' 
outlines general standards to be used for the submission of any 
electronic information to CVM using the FDA ESG, including how to 
register with the CVM ESS using Form FDA 3538, ``Electronic Submission 
System Participant Management.'' Registering with the CVM ESS allows 
respondents to send electronic regulatory submissions to the Office of 
New Animal Drug Evaluation, the Office of Surveillance and Compliance's

electronic submission of regulatory information. We use the information 
collected with Form FDA 3538 to register respondents to use the CVM 
ESS.

regulatory information to CVM.
    In the Federal Register of April 16, 2019 (84 FR 15621), 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:

\1\ There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information.

    In the 60-day notice published April 16, 2019, we based our 
estimate of 179 respondents per year on our experience with the 
submission of electronic information using the CVM ESS and the number 
of electronic registration or change requests received between January 
1, 2018, and November 30, 2018. We are now adjusting our estimate to 
193 respondents per year to better reflect the data for the time period 
January 1 to December 31, 2018. Using these new figures, our estimated 
burden for the information collection reflects an overall increase from 
the previous OMB approval of 17 hours and a corresponding increase of 
213 responses. We attribute this adjustment to the reauthorizations of 
both the Animal Drug User Fee Act and the Animal Generic Drug User Fee 
Act, which require sponsors to submit information electronically to the 
CVM's Office of New Animal Drug Evaluation. Because of this 
requirement, sponsors are now registering to use the CVM ESS in greater 
numbers than in previous years.
