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.
State Petitions for Exemption From Preemption
OMB Control Number 0910-0277-Extension
This information collection supports FDA regulations. Under section 403A(b) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 343-1(b)), States may petition FDA for exemption from Federal preemption of State food labeling and standard-of-identity requirements. Section 100.1(c) (21 CFR 100.1(c)) provides prerequisites a petition must satisfy for an exemption from preemption. Section 100.1(d) sets forth the information a State is required to submit in such a petition. The petition must be submitted to the Dockets Management Staff. The information required under §?100.1 enables FDA to determine whether the State food labeling or standard-of-identity requirement satisfies the criteria of section 403A(b) of the FD&C Act for granting exemption from Federal preemption.
In the Federal Register of July 31, 2023 (88 FR 49469), 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 information collection topics solicited.
Description of Respondents: The respondents to this collection of information are State and local governments who regulate food labeling and standards-of-identity.
We estimate the burden of this collection of information as follows:
21 CFR section; activity | Number of respondents | Number of responses per respondent | Total annual responses | Average burden per response | Total hours |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
100.1; petition for exemption from preemption | 1 | 1 | 1 | 40 | 40 |
1 ?There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. |
The reporting burden for §?100.1 is minimal because petitions for exemption from preemption are seldom submitted by States. In the next 3 years, we estimate that one or fewer petitions will be submitted annually.
Based on a review of the information collection since our last request for OMB approval, we have made no adjustments to our burden estimate.
Dated: November 24, 2023.
Lauren K. Roth,
Associate Commissioner for Policy.
