Download as PDF khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES 21744 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 77 / Friday, April 23, 2021 / Notices Award Type: Cooperative Agreement Supplement. Statutory Authority: This program is authorized under Section 317 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 247(b–4)); Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act, 2015, Public Law 113–235 (Dec. 16, 2014). Basis for Award: The Amputee Coalition of America, Inc. is currently funded to carry out the objectives of this program, entitled The National Limb Loss Resource Center for the period of April 1, 2019, through March 29, 2024. Almost 2 million Americans have experienced amputations or were born with limb difference and another 28 million people in our country are at risk for amputation. The supplement will enable the grantee to carry their work even further, serving more people living with limb loss and/or limb differences and providing even more comprehensive training and technical assistance in the development of longterm supportive services. The additional funding will not be used to begin new projects or activities. The NLLRC will enhance and expand currently funded activities such as conducting national outreach for the development and dissemination of patient education materials, programs, and services; providing technical support and assistance to community based limb loss support groups; and raising awareness about the limb loss and limb differences communities. Establishing an entirely new grant project at this time would be potentially disruptive to the current work already well under way. More importantly, the people living with limb loss and limb differences currently being served by this program could be negatively impacted by a service disruption, thus posing the risk of not being able to find the right resources that could negatively impact on health and wellbeing. If this supplement were not provided, the project would be less able to address the significant unmet needs of additional limb loss survivors. Similarly, the project would be unable to expand its current technical assistance and training efforts in NLLRC concepts and approaches, let alone reach beyond traditional providers of services to this population to train more ‘‘mainstream’’ providers of disability services.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background On January 31, 2020, as a result of confirmed cases of COVID–19, and after consultation with public health officials as necessary, the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS), pursuant to the authority under section 319 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 247d), determined that a PHE exists and has existed since January 27, 2020, nationwide.1 On March 13, 2020, there was a Presidential declaration that the COVID–19 outbreak in the United States constitutes a national emergency, beginning March 1, 2020.2 In the Federal Register of March 25, 2020 (85 FR 16949) (the March 25, 2020, notice) (available at https:// www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-202003-25/pdf/2020-06222.pdf), FDA announced procedures for making available FDA guidances related to the COVID–19 PHE. These procedures, which operate within FDA’s established good guidance practices regulations, are intended to allow FDA to rapidly disseminate Agency recommendations and policies related to COVID–19 to industry, FDA staff, and other stakeholders. The March 25, 2020, notice stated that due to the need to act quickly and efficiently to respond to the COVID–19 PHE, FDA believes that prior public participation will not be feasible or appropriate before FDA implements COVID–19-related guidances. Therefore, FDA will issue COVID–19-related 21745 guidances for immediate implementation without prior public comment (see section 701(h)(1)(C) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 371(h)(1)(C)) and § 10.115(g)(2)). The guidances are available on FDA’s web pages entitled ‘‘COVID–19-Related Guidance Documents for Industry, FDA Staff, and Other Stakeholders’’ (available at https://www.fda.gov/emergencypreparedness-and-response/mcmissues/covid-19-related-guidancedocuments-industry-fda-staff-and-otherstakeholders) and ‘‘Search for FDA Guidance Documents’’ (available at https://www.fda.gov/regulatoryinformation/search-fda-guidancedocuments). The March 25, 2020, notice further stated that, in general, rather than publishing a separate NOA for each COVID–19-related guidance, FDA intends to publish periodically a consolidated NOA announcing the availability of certain COVID–19-related guidances that FDA issued during the relevant period, as included in table 1. This notice announces COVID–19related guidances that are posted on FDA’s website. II. Availability of COVID–19-Related Guidance Documents Pursuant to the process described in the March 25, 2020, notice, FDA is announcing the availability of the following COVID–19-related guidances: khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES TABLE 1—GUIDANCES RELATED TO THE COVID–19 PUBLIC HEALTH EMERGENCY Docket No. Center Title of guidance FDA–2020–D–1825 CBER .......

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Food and Drug Administration [Docket No. FDA–2011–N–0781] Agency Information Collection Activities; Submission for Office of Management and Budget Review; Comment Request; Record Retention Requirements for the Soy Protein and Risk of Coronary Heart Disease Health Claim AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS. ACTION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance. Record Retention Requirements for the Soy Protein and Risk of Coronary Heart Disease Health SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Claim—21 CFR 101.82 OMB Control Number 0910–0428— Extension Notice. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing Section 403(r)(3)(A) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. SUMMARY: OMB control No(s). 0910–0595 343(r)(3)(A)) provides for the use of food label statements characterizing a relationship of any nutrient of the type required to be in the label or labeling of the food to a disease or a health related condition only where that statement meets the requirements of the regulations issued by the Secretary of Health and Human Services to authorize the use of such a health claim. Section 101.82 (21 CFR 101.82) of our regulations authorizes a health claim for food labels about soy protein and the risk of coronary heart disease. Accordingly, we established the previously referenced information collection in support of the regulation. In the Federal Register of October 31, 2017 (82 FR 50324), we published a proposed rule to revoke the underlying regulation found at § 101.82. We are taking this action based on our review of the totality of publicly available scientific evidence currently available and our tentative conclusion that such evidence does not support our previous determination that there is significant scientific agreement among qualified experts for a health claim regarding the relationship between soy protein and reduced risk of coronary heart disease. Upon finalization of the proposed rule, the associated information collection requirements under this OMB control number will be revoked. Until such time and in accordance with the PRA, we retain our currently approved burden estimate for this information collection. In the Federal Register of October 21, 2020 (85 FR 66999), we published a 60day notice requesting public comment on the proposed collection of information. No comments were received. We estimate the burden of this collection of information as follows: khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES TABLE 1—ESTIMATED ANNUAL RECORDKEEPING BURDEN 1 21 CFR section Number recordkeepers Number of records per recordkeeping 25 1 101.82(c)(2)(ii)(B) ................................................................. 1 There Total annual records 25 Average burden per recordkeeping 1 Total hours 25 are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. Based on a review of the information collection since our last request for VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:15 Apr 22, 2021 Jkt 253001 OMB approval, we have made no adjustments to our burden estimate.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    On January 31, 2020, as a result of confirmed cases of COVID-19, 
and after consultation with public health officials as necessary, the 
Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS), pursuant to the authority 
under section 319 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 247d), 
determined that a PHE exists and has existed since January 27, 2020, 
nationwide.\1\ On March 13, 2020, there was a Presidential declaration 
that the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States constitutes a national 
emergency, beginning March 1, 2020.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Secretary of Health and Human Services, ``Determination that 
a Public Health Emergency Exists'' (originally issued on January 31, 
2020, and subsequently renewed), available at: https://www.phe.gov/emergency/news/healthactions/phe/Pages/default.aspx.
    \2\ ``Proclamation on Declaring a National Emergency Concerning 
the Novel Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) Outbreak'' (March 13, 
2020), available at: https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/presidential-actions/proclamation-declaring-national-emergency-concerning-novel-coronavirus-disease-covid-19-outbreak/. On February 
24, 2021, there was a Presidential Declaration continuing the 
national emergency concerning the COVID-19 pandemic beyond March 1, 
2021. See ``Continuation of the National Emergency Concerning the 
Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Pandemic'' (February 24, 2021),

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In the Federal Register of March 25, 2020 (85 FR 16949) (the March 
25, 2020, notice) (available at https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2020-03-25/pdf/2020-06222.pdf), FDA announced procedures for making 
available FDA guidances related to the COVID-19 PHE. These procedures, 
which operate within FDA's established good guidance practices 
regulations, are intended to allow FDA to rapidly disseminate Agency 
recommendations and policies related to COVID-19 to industry, FDA 
staff, and other stakeholders. The March 25, 2020, notice stated that 
due to the need to act quickly and efficiently to respond to the COVID-
19 PHE, FDA believes that prior public participation will not be 
feasible or appropriate before FDA implements COVID-19-related 
guidances. Therefore, FDA will issue COVID-19-related guidances for 
immediate implementation without prior public comment (see section 
701(h)(1)(C) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 
371(h)(1)(C)) and Sec.  10.115(g)(2)). The guidances are available on 
FDA's web pages entitled ``COVID-19-Related Guidance Documents for 
Industry, FDA Staff, and Other Stakeholders'' (available at https://www.fda.gov/emergency-preparedness-and-response/mcm-issues/covid-19-related-guidance-documents-industry-fda-staff-and-other-stakeholders) 
and ``Search for FDA Guidance Documents'' (available at https://www.fda.gov/regulatory-information/search-fda-guidance-documents).
    The March 25, 2020, notice further stated that, in general, rather 
than publishing a separate NOA for each COVID-19-related guidance, FDA 
intends to publish periodically a consolidated NOA announcing the 
availability of certain COVID-19-related guidances that FDA issued 
during the relevant period, as included in table 1. This notice 
announces COVID-19-related guidances that are posted on FDA's website.

II. Availability of COVID-19-Related Guidance Documents

    Pursuant to the process described in the March 25, 2020, notice, 
FDA is announcing the availability of the following COVID-19-related 
guidances:

    Although these guidances have been implemented immediately without 
prior comment, FDA will consider all comments received and revise the 
guidances as appropriate (see Sec.  10.115(g)(3)).
    These guidances are being issued consistent with FDA's good 
guidance practices regulation (Sec.  10.115). The guidances represent 
the current thinking of FDA. They do not establish any rights for any 
person and are not binding on FDA or the public. You can use an 
alternative approach if it satisfies the requirements of the applicable 
statutes and regulations.

III. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

A. CBER Guidances

    While these guidances contain no collection of information, they do 
refer to previously approved FDA collections of information (listed in 
table 2). Therefore, clearance by the Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501-
3521) is not required for these guidances. The previously approved 
collections of information are subject to review by OMB under the PRA. 
The collections of information in the following FDA regulations and 
guidances have been approved by OMB as listed in the following table:
