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:
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 § 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

1140.30—Scope of permissible forms of labeling and advertising ............................................................................

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.
