In the Federal Register of August 10, 2022 (87 FR 48667), FDA published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed collection of information. No comments were received. FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: with FDA’s decision regarding the petition may request, under § 60.40 (21 CFR 60.40), an informal hearing for reconsideration of the due diligence determination.
