are suitable for detecting melamine 

contamination in at-risk components 

down to 2.5 parts per million (ppm) to 

give a high degree of assurance that they 

are not contaminated. At this time, FDA 

has not established an appropriate level 

of melamine in drug products. 

As explained in detail in the 

guidance, there have been repeated 

instances of melamine contamination in 

food articles, including in the U.S. 

market. In 2007, FDA learned that 

certain pet foods were sickening and 

killing cats and dogs. In September 

2008, FDA received reports of 

melamine-contaminated infant formula 

in China. These two incidents share the 

following similarities: 

• Melamine, a nitrogen-based 

compound, was apparently added to 

bolster the apparent protein content in 

foods or in ingredients used in 

processed food products intended to 

contain protein. 

• The recipients of the ingredients 

using a test for nitrogen content would 

not have been able to distinguish 

between melamine and the desired 

protein. 

• Melamine contamination became 

public only after numerous adverse 

health events, including deaths, were 

reported and associated with the use of 

contaminated products. 

These incidents illustrate the 

potential for drug components to be 

contaminated with melamine; therefore, 

it is important for drug manufacturers to 

be diligent in assuring that no 

component used in the manufacture of 

any drug is contaminated with 

melamine. As of the date of this 

guidance, FDA is not aware of any 

pharmaceuticals that are contaminated 

with melamine. However, because of the 

potential risk of drug contamination, it 

is important that manufacturers take 

steps to ensure that susceptible 

components are not contaminated with 

melamine. 

We are issuing this level 1 guidance 

for immediate implementation, 

consistent with FDA’s good guidance 

practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). 

The agency is not seeking comment 

before implementing this guidance 

because of the potential for a serious 

public health impact if melaminecontaminated pharmaceuticals were to 

enter the domestic market. The 

guidance represents the agency’s current 

thinking on this issue. It does not create 

or confer any rights for or on any person 

and does not operate to bind FDA or the 

public. An alternative approach may be 

used if such approach satisfies the 

requirements of the applicable statutes 

and regulations.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The goal of FEMA’s grant programs is 

to provide funding to enhance the 

capacity of state and local jurisdictions 

to prevent, respond to, and recover from 

disaster and non disaster incidents 

including cyber attacks. FEMA’s grant 

programs currently provide funds to all 

50 states, the District of Columbia, the 

Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, 

American Samoa, the Commonwealth of 

Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, and 

the U.S. Virgin Islands. FEMA grant 

programs are directed at a broad 

spectrum of state and local emergency 

responders, including firefighters, 

emergency medical services, emergency 

management agencies, law enforcement, 

and public officials. The source of the 

information that FEMA is collecting 

generally comes from state, local, and 

tribal partners seeking grant funding. 

Additional sources of information may 

include private and non private 

organizations. The nature of the 

collected data should illustrate 

organizations’ familiarity with the 

national preparedness architecture (i.e. 

Federal Investment Strategy), identify 

how elements of this architecture have 

been incorporated into their regional/ 

state/local planning, operations, and 

investments, and the demonstrated need 

for the grant funds. 

Many of FEMA’s grant programs 

implement objectives addressed in a 

series of post-9/11 laws, strategy 

documents, plans, and Homeland 

Security Presidential Directives 

(HSPDs). FEMA management 

requirements are incorporated into the 

application processes and reflect 

changes mandated in the Implementing 

Recommendations of the 9/11 

Commission Act of 2007 (the ‘‘9/11 

Act’’), enacted in August 2007, as well 

as the FY 2008 Consolidated 

Appropriations Act. 

Consistent with DHS’s information 

sharing mission, information stored in 

the Grants Management Information 

Files may be shared with other DHS 

components, as well as appropriate 

federal, state, local, tribal, foreign, or 

international government agencies. This 

sharing will take place only after DHS 

determines that the receiving 

component or agency has a need to 

know the information to carry out 

national security, law enforcement, 

immigration, intelligence, or other 

functions consistent with the routine 

uses set forth in this system of records 

notice. 

The information contained in the 

FEMA Grant Management Information 

Files is collected in order to determine 

awards for both disaster and nondisaster grants and for the issuance of 

awarded funds. 

II. Privacy Act 

The Privacy Act embodies fair 

information principles in a statutory 

framework governing the means by 

which the United States Government 

collects, maintains, uses, and 

disseminates personally identifiable 

information. The Privacy Act applies to 

information that is maintained in a 

‘‘system of records.’’ A ‘‘system of 

records’’ is a group of any records under 

the control of an agency for which 

information is retrieved by the name of 

an individual or by some identifying 

number, symbol, or other identifying 

particular assigned to the individual. In 

the Privacy Act, an individual is defined 

to encompass United States citizens and 

legal permanent residents. As a matter 

of policy, DHS extends administrative 

Privacy Act protections to all 

individuals where systems of records 

maintain information on U.S. citizens, 

lawful permanent residents, and 

visitors. Individuals may request access 

to their own records that are maintained 

in a system of records in the possession 

or under the control of DHS by 

complying with DHS Privacy Act 

regulations, 6 CFR Part 5. 

The Privacy Act requires each agency 

to publish in the Federal Register a 

description denoting the type and 

character of each system of records that 

the agency maintains, and the routine 

uses that are contained in each system 

in order to make agency record keeping 

practices transparent, to notify 

individuals regarding the uses to which 

personally identifiable information is 

put, and to assist individuals to more 

easily find such files within the agency. 

Below is the description of the FEMA 

Grants Management Information Files 

system of records. 

In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(r), 

DHS has provided a report of this new 

system of records to the Office of 

Management and Budget and to 

Congress.

ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE

SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES OF USERS AND

THE PURPOSES OF SUCH USES: 

In addition to those disclosures 

generally permitted under 5 U.S.C. 

552a(b) of the Privacy Act, all or a 

portion of the records or information 

contained in this system may be 

disclosed outside DHS as a routine use 

pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(b)(3) as 

follows: 

A. To the Department of Justice or 

other Federal agency conducting 

litigation or in proceedings before any 

court, adjudicative or administrative 

body, when: 

1. DHS or any component thereof; 

2. Any employee of DHS in his/her 

official capacity; 

3. Any employee of DHS in his/her 

individual capacity where DOJ or DHS 

has agreed to represent the employee; or 

4. The United States or any agency 

thereof, is a party to the litigation or has 

an interest in such litigation, and DHS 

determines that the records are both 

relevant and necessary to the litigation 

and the use of such records is 

compatible with the purpose for which 

DHS collected the records. 

B. To a congressional office from the 

record of an individual in response to 

an inquiry from that congressional office 

made at the request of the individual to 

whom the record pertains. 

C. To the National Archives and 

Records Administration or other Federal 

government agencies pursuant to 

records management inspections being 

conducted under the authority of 44 

U.S.C. 2904 and 2906. 

D. To an agency, organization, or 

individual for the purpose of performing 

audit or oversight operations as 

authorized by law, but only such 

information as is necessary and relevant 

to such audit or oversight function. 

E. To appropriate agencies, entities, 

and persons when: 

1. DHS suspects or has confirmed that 

the security or confidentiality of 

information in the system of records has 

been compromised; 

2. The Department has determined 

that as a result of the suspected or 

confirmed compromise there is a risk of 

harm to economic or property interests, 

identity theft or fraud, or harm to the 

security or integrity of this system or 

other systems or programs (whether 

maintained by DHS or another agency or 

entity) that rely upon the compromised 

information; and 

3. The disclosure made to such 

agencies, entities, and persons is 

reasonably necessary to assist in 

connection with DHS’s efforts to 

respond to the suspected or confirmed 

compromise and prevent, minimize, or 

remedy such harm. 

F. To contractors and their agents, 

grantees, experts, consultants, and 

others performing or working on a 

contract, service, grant, cooperative 

agreement, or other assignment for DHS, 

when necessary to accomplish an 

agency function related to this system of 

records. Individuals provided 

information under this routine use are 

subject to the same Privacy Act 

requirements and limitations on 

disclosure as are applicable to DHS 

officers and employees. 

G. To an appropriate Federal, State, 

tribal, local, international, or foreign law 

enforcement agency or other appropriate 

authority charged with investigating or 

prosecuting a violation or enforcing or 

implementing a law, rule, regulation, or 

order, where a record, either on its face 

or in conjunction with other 

information, indicates a violation or 

potential violation of law, which 

includes criminal, civil, or regulatory 

violations and such disclosure is proper 

and consistent with the official duties of 

the person making the disclosure. 

H. To an individual’s employer or 

affiliated organization to the extent 

necessary to verify employment or 

membership status. 

I. To the news media and the public, 

with the approval of the Chief Privacy 

Officer in consultation with counsel, 

when there exists a legitimate public 

interest in the disclosure of the 

information or when disclosure is 

necessary to preserve confidence in the 

integrity of DHS or is necessary to 

demonstrate the accountability of DHS’s 

officers, employees, or individuals 

covered by the system, except to the 

extent it is determined that release of 

the specific information in the context 

of a particular case would constitute an 

unwarranted invasion of personal 

privacy.

NOTIFICATION PROCEDURE: 

Individuals or entities seeking 

notification of and access to any record 

contained in this system of records, or 

seeking to contest its content, may 

submit a request in writing to the 

component’s FOIA Officer, whose 

contact information can be found at 

http://www.dhs.gov/foia under 

‘‘contacts.’’ If an individual believes 

more than one component maintains 

Privacy Act records concerning him or 

her, the individual may submit the 

request to the Chief Privacy Officer, 

Department of Homeland Security, 245 

Murray Drive, SW., STOP–0655, 

Washington, DC 20528. 

When seeking records about yourself 

from this system of records or any other 

Departmental system of records, your 

request must conform with the Privacy 

Act regulations set forth in 6 CFR Part 

5. You must first verify your identity, 

meaning that you must provide your full 

name, current address and date and 

place of birth. You must sign your 

request, and your signature must either 

be notarized or submitted under 28 

U.S.C. 1746, a law that permits 

statements to be made under penalty of 

perjury as a substitute for notarization. 

While no specific form is required, you 

may obtain forms for this purpose from 

the Director, Disclosure and FOIA, 

http://www.dhs.gov or 1–866–431–0486. 

In addition you should provide the 

following: 

• An explanation of why you believe 

the Department would have information 

on you, 

• Identify which component(s) of the 

Department you believe may have the 

information about you, 

• Specify when you believe the 

records would have been created, 

• Provide any other information that 

will help the FOIA staff determine 

which DHS component agency may 

have responsive records, 

• If your request is seeking records 

pertaining to another living individual, 

you must include a statement from that 

individual certifying his/her agreement 

for you to access his/her records. 

Without this bulleted information the 

component(s) will not be able to 

conduct an effective search, and your 

request may be denied due to lack of 

specificity or lack of compliance with 

applicable regulations.
