Agency Information Collection Activities; Submission for Office of Management and Budget Review; Comment Request; Drug Supply Chain Security Act Implementation, 23050-23051 [2020-08766]

Download as PDF 23050 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 80 / Friday, April 24, 2020 / Notices As reflected in table 1, row 6, we estimate 70 submissions under the PLAIR program. Since implementation of PLAIR there has been significant interest. We have therefore doubled our original estimate of 35 to 70 respondents annually but retain the average burden per response of 16 hours to provide the information recommended in the draft guidance. Cumulatively these changes and adjustments result in a reduction in annual responses by 40,111,035 and an increase in burden hours by 130,572. These changes and adjustments reflect the realization of one-time burden associated with conforming to new CBP electronic reporting requirements since last OMB approval of the information collection that we believe no longer applies. Finally, we consolidated related information collection activities associated with CFR part 1, subparts D (§§ 1.70 through 1.81) and E (§§ 1.83 through 1.101) governing FDA import activities. Dated: April 14, 2020. Lowell J. Schiller, Principal Associate Commissioner for Policy.

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. Drug Supply Chain Security Act Implementation OMB Control Number 0910–0806—Revision This information collection supports Agency implementation of section 582 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 360eee–1) (FD&C Act) as revised by the Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) (Pub. L. 113–54). For efficiency of Agency operations, we are revising information collection currently approved under OMB control number 0910–0806 pertaining to certain provisions of the DSCSA to also include information collection activity associated with waivers, exceptions, and exemptions from requirements. Finally, we are revising the title of the information collection from ‘‘Identification of Suspect Product and Notification’’ to ‘‘Drug Supply Chain Security Act Implementation’’ to reflect the broadening scope of this information collection request. As information collection activity is planned and undertaken by FDA, we find consolidating related collection elements better utilizes our resources. We have developed guidance to assist respondents to the information collection with this topic and are including it in the information collection accordingly. In the Federal Register of May 9, 2018 (83 FR 21297), we published a notice announcing the availability of a draft guidance for industry entitled ‘‘Waivers, Exceptions, and Exemptions From the Requirements of Section 582 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act,’’ including an analysis and inviting public comment under the PRA regarding the proposed information collection. The draft guidance was issued consistent with FDA’s good guidance practice regulation (21 CFR 10.115) which provides for public comment at any time. We intend to finalize the PO 00000 Frm 00058 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 guidance document and are seeking OMB approval of the attendant information collection discussed in the document. The most recent version of the draft guidance is available at: https:// www.fda.gov/media/113342/download. In the 2018 NOA, we estimated that annually 20 trading partners or stakeholders would submit approximately 20 requests for a waiver, exception, or exemption. This estimate was based on communications we had with trading partners and stakeholders since the 2013 enactment of the DSCSA. We also estimated that it would require an average of 40 hours for respondents to prepare and submit each request and to submit any additional followup information that we may request, for a total burden of approximately 800 hours. As described in the draft guidance, a recipient of a waiver, exception, or exemption should notify us whenever there is a material change in the circumstances that is the basis for the relief. In addition, we intend to biennially review waivers, exceptions, and exemptions that extend longer than 2 years in duration and may ask the recipient to submit information to determine whether a material change in the circumstances has occurred. We estimated that annually we would receive approximately 1 notification or other information from approximately 1 respondent that there has or has not been a material change in the circumstances that warranted the waiver, exception, or exemption and that each notification will require approximately 16 hours to prepare and submit to us, for a total of approximately 16 hours. A trading partner may request that we renew a waiver, exception, or exemption that is of limited duration. This request should include a detailed statement justifying the continuance of the relief and the desired length of the extension. We estimated that annually we would receive approximately 1 renewal request from approximately 1 respondent and that each request would require approximately 16 hours to prepare and submit to us, for a total of approximately 16 hours. To address the comment that that it will require more than 40 hours to prepare and submit requests for a waiver, exception, or exemption from the requirements of section 582 of the FD&C Act and to submit any additional follow up information that we may request, we increased the estimate to 80 hours. Therefore, we now estimate that the total annual burden hours for submitting these requests is E:\FR\FM\24APN1.SGM 24APN1 23051 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 80 / Friday, April 24, 2020 / Notices approximately 1,600 hours, for a new total of 1,632 hours (table 1).

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.

Drug Supply Chain Security Act Implementation OMB Control Number 0910-
0806--Revision

    This information collection supports Agency implementation of 
section 582 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 
360eee-1) (FD&C Act) as revised by the Drug Supply Chain Security Act 
(DSCSA) (Pub. L. 113-54). For efficiency of Agency operations, we are 
revising information collection currently approved under OMB control 
number 0910-0806 pertaining to certain provisions of the DSCSA to also 
include information collection activity associated with waivers, 
exceptions, and exemptions from requirements. Finally, we are revising 
the title of the information collection from ``Identification of 
Suspect Product and Notification'' to ``Drug Supply Chain Security Act 
Implementation'' to reflect the broadening scope of this information 
collection request. As information collection activity is planned and 
undertaken by FDA, we find consolidating related collection elements 
better utilizes our resources. We have developed guidance to assist 
respondents to the information collection with this topic and are 
including it in the information collection accordingly.
    In the Federal Register of May 9, 2018 (83 FR 21297), we published 
a notice announcing the availability of a draft guidance for industry 
entitled ``Waivers, Exceptions, and Exemptions From the Requirements of 
Section 582 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act,'' including an 
analysis and inviting public comment under the PRA regarding the 
proposed information collection.
    The draft guidance was issued consistent with FDA's good guidance 
practice regulation (21 CFR 10.115) which provides for public comment 
at any time. We intend to finalize the guidance document and are 
seeking OMB approval of the attendant information collection discussed 
in the document.
    The most recent version of the draft guidance is available at: 
https://www.fda.gov/media/113342/download.
    In the 2018 NOA, we estimated that annually 20 trading partners or 
stakeholders would submit approximately 20 requests for a waiver, 
exception, or exemption. This estimate was based on communications we 
had with trading partners and stakeholders since the 2013 enactment of 
the DSCSA. We also estimated that it would require an average of 40 
hours for respondents to prepare and submit each request and to submit 
any additional followup information that we may request, for a total 
burden of approximately 800 hours.
    As described in the draft guidance, a recipient of a waiver, 
exception, or exemption should notify us whenever there is a material 
change in the circumstances that is the basis for the relief. In 
addition, we intend to biennially review waivers, exceptions, and 
exemptions that extend longer than 2 years in duration and may ask the 
recipient to submit information to determine whether a material change 
in the circumstances has occurred. We estimated that annually we would 
receive approximately 1 notification or other information from 
approximately 1 respondent that there has or has not been a material 
change in the circumstances that warranted the waiver, exception, or 
exemption and that each notification will require approximately 16 
hours to prepare and submit to us, for a total of approximately 16 
hours.
    A trading partner may request that we renew a waiver, exception, or 
exemption that is of limited duration. This request should include a 
detailed statement justifying the continuance of the relief and the 
desired length of the extension. We estimated that annually we would 
receive approximately 1 renewal request from approximately 1 respondent 
and that each request would require approximately 16 hours to prepare 
and submit to us, for a total of approximately 16 hours.
    To address the comment that that it will require more than 40 hours 
to prepare and submit requests for a waiver, exception, or exemption 
from the requirements of section 582 of the FD&C Act and to submit any 
additional follow up information that we may request, we increased the 
estimate to 80 hours. Therefore, we now estimate that the total annual 
burden hours for submitting these requests is

[[Page 23051]]

approximately 1,600 hours, for a new total of 1,632 hours (table 1).
    We have therefore adjusted our estimated burden of this collection 
of information as follows:
