establishment and operation by the

State agency, in accordance with an

initial and annually updated advance

planning document approved under

section 452(d) of this state, of a

statewide system meeting the

The data being collected for the

Advance Planning Document is a

combination of narrative, budget and

funding approvals on a annual basis and

to monitor and oversee system

development.

The data being collected for the State

Case Registry is used to transmit

mandatory data elements to the Federal

purposes of location of individuals,

assets, employment and other child

support related activities.

Agency Information Collection

Activities; Proposed Collection;

Comment Request; Consumer and

Producer Surveys on Economic Issues

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration,

HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug

Administration (FDA) is announcing an

opportunity for public comment on the

proposed collection of certain

information by the agency. Under the

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (the

PRA), Federal agencies are required to

publish notice in the Federal Register

concerning each proposed collection of

information, including each proposed

extension of an existing collection of

information, and to allow 60 days for

public comment in response to the

notice. This notice solicits comments on

proposed voluntary surveys of

consumers and producers in order to

help FDA comply with Executive Order

12866, the Regulatory Flexibility Act

(RFA), and the Small Business

Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of

1996 (SBREFA).

DATES: Submit written or electronic

comments on the collection of

information by August 14, 2001.

ADDRESSES: Submit electronic

comments on the collection of

information to http://

www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/oc/

dockets/edockethome.cfm. Submit

written comments on the collection of

information to the Dockets Management

Branch (HFA–305), Food and Drug

Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, rm.

1061, Rockville, MD 20852. All

comments should be identified with the

docket number found in brackets in the

heading of this document.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Peggy Schlosburg, Office of Information

Resources Management (HFA–250),

Food and Drug Administration, 5600

Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20857,

301–827–1227.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the

PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal

agencies must obtain approval from the

Office of Management and Budget

(OMB) for each collection of

information they conduct or sponsor.

‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined

in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3

and includes agency requests or

requirements that members of the public

submit reports, keep records, or provide

information to a third party. Section

3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C.

3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal agencies

to provide a 60-day notice in the

Federal Register concerning each

proposed collection of information,

including each proposed extension of an

existing collection of information,

before submitting the collection to OMB

for approval. To comply with this

requirement, FDA is publishing notice

of the proposed collection of

information set forth in this document.

With respect to the following

collection of information, FDA invites

comments on: (1) Whether the proposed

collection of information is necessary

for the proper performance of FDA’s

functions, including whether the

information will have practical utility;

(2) the accuracy of FDA’s estimate of the

burden of the proposed collection of

information, including the validity of

the methodology and assumptions used;

(3) ways to enhance the quality, utility,

and clarity of the information to be

collected; and (4) ways to minimize the

burden of the collection of information

on respondents, including through the

use of automated collection techniques,

when appropriate, and other forms of

information technology.

Consumer and Producer Surveys on

Economic Issues

Under section 903(d)(2) of the Federal

Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C.

393(d)(2)), FDA is authorized to conduct

research relating to regulated articles

and to collect information relating to

responsibilities of the agency. Executive

Order 12866, RFA, and SBREFA direct

Federal agencies to conduct regulatory

impact analysis, and to consider flexible

regulatory approaches. In order to

perform the mandatory analysis it is

often necessary to survey: (1) Regulated

producers to determine existing

practices and the changes in those

practices likely under various policy

options, (2) both consumers and

manufacturers to explore attitudes

towards policy proposals, and (3)

industry experts to solicit expert

opinions. FDA is seeking OMB

clearance to conduct future surveys to

implement Executive Order 12866, RFA,

and SBREFA. Participation in the

surveys will be voluntary. This request

covers regulated entities, such as food

processors, dietary supplement

manufacturers, health professionals or

other experts, and consumers.

FDA will use the information

gathered from these surveys to identify

current business practices, expert

opinion, and consumer or manufacturer

attitudes towards existing or proposed

policy. FDA projects approximately 2 to

6 surveys per year, with a sample of

between 10 and 1,000 respondents each

for mail and telephone surveys, and a

sample of up to 3,000 respondents for

cable or internet surveys.

FDA estimates the upper bound

burden of this collection of information

as follows:
