Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 19 / Friday, January 28, 2022 / Notices
estimates that one establishment will
initially submit one report annually at 2
hours per report, for a total of 2 hours.
Submissions under section 904(c) of
the FD&C Act are for any new product
that is not yet on the market (e.g., if on
the market due to deeming compliance
period), deemed product manufacturers
should have submitted under section
904(a)(1) of the FD&C Act. This includes
any statutorily regulated product that
would receive a marketing authorization
and any new deemed product not
subject to the deeming compliance
period. For deemed product categories,
while we anticipate receiving a large
number of premarket applications, there
is a portion of these applicants who will
have reported their ingredients under
section 904(a)(1) of the FD&C Act as
most of these submissions are expected
to be for products subject to the
deeming compliance period.
Based on FDA’s experience and the
number of new products authorized to
be introduced or delivered for
introduction into interstate commerce
submitted over the past 3 years, FDA
estimates that 35 establishments will
each submit 10 reports (1 every 6
months). FDA also estimates that the
confirmation or updating of product
(ingredient) listing information
(required by section 904(c) of the FD&C
Act) is expected to take 0.40 hours (24
minutes) for a total 140 burden hours.
FDA estimates that obtaining a data
universal numbering system (DUNS)
number will take 30 minutes. FDA
assumes that all new establishment
facilities that will be required to
initially register under section 905 of
the FD&C Act would obtain a DUNS
number. FDA estimates that up to 100
establishments that would need to
obtain this number each year. The total
industry burden to obtain a DUNS
number is 50 hours.
FDA estimates the total burden for
this collection to be 764 hours. We have
adjusted our burden estimate, which has
resulted in a decrease of 66 hours to the
currently approved burden. Based on
data we reviewed from the past 3 years,
we note a decrease in the number of
establishments submitting a renewal
registration listing, an increase of the
number of applications received for
deemed products and potential
modifications to those, and by
projecting the number of remaining
establishments that have not registered
and submitted product ingredient
listings, we revised the number of
respondents and burden hours in this
information collection.

The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA, Agency, or we) is
announcing that a proposed collection
of information has been submitted to the

(OMB) for review and clearance under
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA).
SUMMARY:
Submit written comments
(including recommendations) on the
collection of information by February
28, 2022.
DATES:
To ensure that comments on
the information collection are received,
OMB recommends that written
comments be submitted to https://
www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain.
Find this particular information
collection by selecting ‘‘Currently under
Review—Open for Public Comments’’ or

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
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:
PO 00000
Frm 00074
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
This notice requests extension of
OMB approval of the FDA information
collection for a generic clearance that
allows FDA to use quantitative social/
behavioral science data collection
techniques (i.e., surveys and
experimental studies) to test consumers’
reactions to FDA communications or
educational messaging about FDAregulated food and cosmetic products,
dietary supplements, and animal food
and feed. To ensure that
communications activities and
educational campaigns have the highest
potential to be received, understood,
and accepted by those for whom they
are intended, it is important to assess
communications while they are under
development. Understanding
consumers’ attitudes, motivations, and
behaviors in response to potential
communications and education
messaging plays an important role in
improving FDA’s communications.
If the following conditions are not
met, FDA will submit an information
collection request to OMB for approval
through the normal PRA process:
• The collections are voluntary;
• The collections are low burden for
participants (based on considerations of
total burden hours, total number of
participants, or burden hours per
participant) and are low cost for both
the participants and the Federal
Government;
• The collections are
noncontroversial;
• Personally identifiable information
(PII) is collected only to the extent
necessary 1 and is not retained;
• Information gathered will not be
used for the purpose of substantially
informing influential policy decisions; 2
and
• Information gathered will yield
qualitative findings; the collections will
not be designed or expected to yield
statistical data or used as though the
results are generalizable to the
population of study.
1 For example, collections that collect PII to
provide remuneration for participants of focus
groups and cognitive laboratory studies will be
submitted under this request. All Privacy Act
requirements will be met.
2 As defined in OMB and Agency Information
Quality Guidelines, ‘‘influential’’ means that ‘‘an
agency can reasonably determine that
dissemination of the information will have or does
have a clear and substantial impact on important
public policies or important private sector
decisions.’’

Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 19 / Friday, January 28, 2022 / Notices
To obtain approval for an individual
generic collection submission that meets
the conditions of this generic clearance,
an abbreviated supporting statement
will be submitted to OMB along with
supporting documentation (e.g., a copy
of the survey or experimental design
and stimuli for testing).
FDA will submit individual
quantitative collections under this
generic clearance to OMB. Individual
quantitative collections will also
undergo review by FDA’s Research
Involving Human Subjects Committee,
senior leadership in the Center for Food
Safety and Applied Nutrition, and PRA
specialists.
Respondents to this collection of
information may include a wide range
of consumers and other FDA
stakeholders, such as producers and
manufacturers who are regulated under
FDA-regulated food and cosmetic
products, dietary supplements, and
animal food and feed.
In the Federal Register of September
9, 2021 (86 FR 50544), FDA published
a 60-day notice requesting public
comment on the proposed collection of
information. Although one comment
was received, it was not responsive to
the four collection of information topics
solicited and, therefore, will not be
discussed in this document.
We estimate the burden of this
collection of information as follows:

Based on a review of the information
collection since our last request for
OMB approval, we have made no
adjustments to our burden estimate. The
total estimated annual burden is 10,498
hours. Current estimates are based on
both historical numbers of participants
from past projects as well as estimates
for projects to be conducted in the next
3 years. The number of participants to
be included in each new survey will
vary, depending on the nature of the
compliance efforts and the target
audience.
