The regulations that are codified at 21 CFR part 1140 are authorized by section 102 of the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (Tobacco Control Act) (Pub. L. 111–31). Section 102 of the Tobacco Control Act required FDA to publish a final rule regarding cigarettes and smokeless tobacco identical in its provisions to the regulation issued by FDA in 1996 (61 FR 44396, August 28, 1996), with certain specified exceptions including that subpart C (which included 21 CFR 897.24) and 21 CFR 897.32(c) be removed from the reissued rule (section 102(a)(2)(B)). The reissued final rule was published in the Federal Register of March 19, 2010 (75 FR 13225). This collection includes reporting information requirements for § 1140.30 (21 CFR 1140.30), which directs persons to notify FDA if they intend to use a form of advertising that is not addressed in the regulations and not originally described in the March 19, 2010, final rule. Section 1140.30 requires manufacturers, distributors, and retailers to (1) observe certain format and content requirements for labeling and advertising and (2) notify FDA if they intend to use an advertising medium that is not listed in the regulations. The concept of permitted advertising in § 1140.30 is sufficiently broad to encompass most forms of advertising. In the Federal Register of May 17, 2019 (84 FR 22496), FDA published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed collection of information. One comment was received that was PRA related. The commenter stated that this program is ineffective and has no effect on whether Americans smoke. FDA disagrees. Section 1140.30 is intended to help protect children and adolescents by reducing the appeal of cigarettes and smokeless tobacco to them. Section 1140.30, in part, contains a comprehensive list of permissible forms of advertising and labeling; in the unlikely event that a person wishes to use a form of advertising or labeling that is not described in § 1140.30, the section directs respondents to notify FDA of the form of advertising or labeling they intend to use. FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: TABLE 1—ESTIMATED ANNUAL REPORTING BURDEN 1 Number of respondents 21 CFR section 1140.30—Scope of permissible forms of labeling and advertising ............................................................................ 1 There Number of responses per respondent 25 Total annual responses 1 25 Average burden per response Total hours 1 25 are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. The burden hour estimates for this collection of information were based on industry-prepared data and information regarding cigarette and smokeless tobacco product advertising expenditures. FDA estimates that approximately 25 respondents will submit an annual notice of alternative advertising, and the Agency has estimated it should take 1 hour to provide such notice. Therefore, FDA estimates that the total time required for this collection of information is 25 hours. We have adjusted our burden estimate to approximately 25 notifications annually, which more accurately reflects the current number of submissions under this regulation. This is a decrease to the currently approved burden. The decrease in notifications is not unexpected given that the regulation applies to cigarettes and smokeless tobacco and many of the alternative media notifications have been made in previous years.

Regulations Restricting the Sale and Distribution of Cigarettes and 
Smokeless Tobacco To Protect Children and Adolescents--21 CFR 1140.30

OMB Control Number 0910-0312--Extension

    This is a request for an extension of OMB approval for the 
information collection requirements contained in FDA's regulations for 
cigarettes and smokeless tobacco containing nicotine. The regulations 
that are codified at 21 CFR part 1140 are authorized by section 102 of 
the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (Tobacco Control 
Act) (Pub. L. 111-31). Section 102 of the Tobacco Control Act required 
FDA to publish a final rule regarding cigarettes and smokeless tobacco 
identical in its provisions to the regulation issued by FDA in 1996 (61 
FR 44396, August 28, 1996), with certain specified exceptions including 
that subpart C (which included 21 CFR 897.24) and 21 CFR 897.32(c) be 
removed from the reissued rule (section 102(a)(2)(B)). The reissued 
final rule was published in the Federal Register of March 19, 2010 (75 
FR 13225).
    This collection includes reporting information requirements for 
Sec.  1140.30 (21 CFR 1140.30), which directs persons to notify FDA if 
they intend to use a form of advertising that is not addressed in the 
regulations and not originally described in the March 19, 2010, final 
rule. Section 1140.30 requires manufacturers, distributors, and 
retailers to (1) observe certain format and content requirements for 
labeling and advertising and (2) notify FDA if they intend to use an 
advertising medium that is not listed in the regulations. The concept 
of permitted advertising in Sec.  1140.30 is sufficiently broad to 
encompass most forms of advertising.
    In the Federal Register of May 17, 2019 (84 FR 22496), FDA 
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed 
collection of information. One comment was received that was PRA 
related. The commenter stated that this program is ineffective and has 
no effect on whether Americans smoke. FDA disagrees. Section 1140.30 is 
intended to help protect children and adolescents by reducing the 
appeal of cigarettes and smokeless tobacco to them. Section 1140.30, in 
part, contains a comprehensive list of permissible forms of advertising 
and labeling; in the unlikely event that a person wishes to use a form 
of advertising or labeling that is not described in Sec.  1140.30, the 
section directs respondents to notify FDA of the form of advertising or 
labeling they intend to use.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows:

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

    The burden hour estimates for this collection of information were 
based on industry-prepared data and information regarding cigarette and 
smokeless tobacco product advertising expenditures.
    FDA estimates that approximately 25 respondents will submit an 
annual notice of alternative advertising, and the Agency has estimated 
it should take 1 hour to provide such notice. Therefore, FDA estimates 
that the total time required for this collection of information is 25 
hours.
    We have adjusted our burden estimate to approximately 25 
notifications annually, which more accurately reflects the current 
number of submissions under this regulation. This is a decrease to the 
currently approved burden. The decrease in notifications is not 
unexpected given that the regulation applies to cigarettes and 
smokeless tobacco and many of the alternative media notifications have 
been made in previous years.
