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 


wgreen on DSK2VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
4924 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 18 / Thursday, January 28, 2016 / Notices 

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

1320.3(c) 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, we are publishing notice of 

the proposed collection of information 

set forth in this document. 

With respect to the following 

collection of information, we invite 

comments on these topics: (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. 

Prevention of Salmonella Enteritidis 

in Shell Eggs During Production— 

Recordkeeping and Registration 

Provisions—21 CFR 118.10 and 118.11 

(OMB Control Number 0910–0660)— 

Extension 

Shell eggs contaminated with 

Salmonella Enteritidis (SE) are 

responsible for more than 140,000 

illnesses per year. The Public Health 

Service Act (PHS Act) authorizes the 

Secretary to make and enforce such 

regulations as ‘‘are necessary to prevent 

the introduction, transmission, or 

spread of communicable diseases from 

foreign countries into the States * * * 

or from one State * * * into any other 

State’’ (section 361(a) of the PHS Act). 

This authority has been delegated to the 

Commissioner of Food and Drugs. 

Under section 402(a)(4) of the Federal 

Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the 

FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 342(a)(4)), a food 

is adulterated if it is prepared, packed, 

or held under insanitary conditions 

whereby it may have been contaminated 

with filth or rendered injurious to 

health. Under section 701(a) of the 

FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 371(a)), FDA is 

authorized to issue regulations for the 

efficient enforcement of the FD&C Act. 

Under part 118 (21 CFR part 118), 

shell egg producers are required to 

implement measures to prevent SE from 

contaminating eggs on the farm and 

from further growth during storage and 

transportation. Shell egg producers also 

are required to maintain records 

concerning their compliance with part 

118 and to register with FDA. As 

described in more detail with regard to 

each information collection provision of 

part 118, each farm site with 3,000 or 

more egg laying hens that sells raw shell 

eggs to the table egg market, other than 

directly to the consumer, must 

refrigerate, register, and keep certain 

records. Farms that do not send all of 

their eggs to treatment are also required 

to have an SE prevention plan and to 

test for SE. 

Section 118.10 of FDA’s regulations 

requires recordkeeping for all measures 

the farm takes to prevent SE in its 

flocks. Since many existing farms 

participate in voluntary egg quality 

assurance programs, those respondents 

may not have to collect any additional 

information. Records are maintained on 

file at each farm site and examined there 

periodically by FDA inspectors. 

Section 118.10 also requires each farm 

site with 3,000 or more egg laying hens 

that sells raw shell eggs to the table egg 

market, other than directly to the 

consumer, and does not have all of the 

shell eggs treated, to design and 

implement an SE prevention plan. 

Section 118.10 requires recordkeeping 

for each of the provisions included in 

the plan and for plan review and 

modifications if corrective actions are 

taken. 

Finally, § 118.11 of FDA’s regulations 

requires that each farm covered by 

§ 118.1(a) register with FDA using Form 

FDA 3733. The term ‘‘Form FDA 3733’’ 

refers to both the paper version of the 

form and the electronic system known 

as the Shell Egg Producer Registration 

Module, which is available at http:// 

www.access.fda.gov. We strongly 

encourage electronic registration 

because it is faster and more convenient. 

The system can accept electronic 

registrations 24 hours a day, 7 days a 

week. A registering shell egg producer 

receives confirmation of electronic 

registration instantaneously once all the 

required fields on the registration screen 

are completed. However, paper 

registrations will also be accepted. Form 

FDA 3733 is available for download for 

registration by mail or CD–ROM. 

Recordkeeping and registration are 

necessary for the success of the SE 

prevention measures. Written SE 

prevention plans and records of actions 

taken due to each provision are essential 

for farms to implement SE prevention 

plans effectively. Further, they are 

essential for us to be able to determine 

compliance. Information provided 

under these regulations helps us to 

notify quickly the facilities that might 

be affected by a deliberate or accidental 

contamination of the food supply. In 

addition, data collected through 

registration is used to support our 

enforcement activities. 

Description of Respondents: 

Respondents to this information 

collection include farm sites with 3,000 

or more egg laying hens that sell raw 

eggs to the table egg market, other than 

directly to the consumer. 

We estimate the burden of this 

collection of information as follows:

1There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. 

2Some records are kept on a by-farm basis and others are kept on a by-house basis. 

3 Calculations include requirements for pullet and layer houses. 

We are basing our estimates for the 

recordkeeping burden and the reporting 

burden on our experience with similar 

recordkeeping activities and the number 

of registrations and cancellations 

received in the past 3 years. 

The number of recordkeepers 

estimated in column 2 of table 1 is 

drawn from estimates of the total 

number of layer and pullet houses 

affected by part 118. We assume that 

those farms that are operating according 

to recognized industry or State quality 

assurance plans are already largely in 

compliance with the plan design and 

recordkeeping provisions discussed in 

this section, and therefore are not 

experiencing additional costs to comply 

with recordkeeping provisions. We 

found that 59 percent of farms with 

more than 50,000 layers are members of 

State or industry quality assurance 

plans. Fewer than 8 percent of farms 

with fewer than 50,000 layers are 

members of quality assurance plans. 

Thus, we estimate the number of layer 

farms incurring a new recordkeeping 

burden because of part 118 to be 2,600, 

and the number of houses affected to be 

4,731. 

Prevention plan design 

(§ 118.10(a)(1)) records are kept on a per 

farm basis, so we assume that new 

prevention plan design is only 

undertaken by new entrants to the 

industry. Refrigeration records 

(§ 118.10(a)(3)(iv)) are also kept on a per 

farm basis so the estimated number of 

recordkeepers for this provision is 

2,600. 

Records of chick and pullet 

procurement (§ 118.10(a)(2)), rodent and 

other pest control (§ 118.10(a)(3)(ii)), 

and biosecurity (§ 118.10(a)(3)(i)) are 

kept on a per house basis, so the 

estimated number of recordkeepers for 

these provisions is 4,731. 

Records of cleaning and disinfection 

(§ 118.10(a)(3)(iii)) are also kept on a per 

house basis, but only need to be kept in 

the event that a layer house tests 

environmentally positive for SE. 

Prevention plan review and 

modifications (§ 118.10(a)(4)) also need 

to be performed every time a house tests 

positive, which we estimate that 7.0 

percent tests positive. Therefore, the 

number of recordkeepers for these 

provisions is calculated to be 331 (4,731 

houses × 0.070) annually. 

Records of testing, diversion, and 

treatment (§ 118.10(a)(3)(v) through 

(viii)) are kept on a per house basis and 

include records on flocks from pullet 

houses. We estimate that there are onethird as many pullet houses as there are 

layer houses. Therefore the total number 

of recordkeepers for these provisions is 

6,308 (4,731 + (4,731/3)). The number of 

annual records kept depends on 

whether or not houses test positive for 

SE. Annually, 343 layer and pullet 

houses ((4,731 layer houses × 0.070) + 

(4731/3 pullet houses) × 0.0075)) are 

expected to test positive and 5,965 are 

expected to test negative ((4,731 layer 

houses × 0.930) + (4731/3 pullet houses) 

× 0.9925)). 

We assume that refrigeration records 

are kept on a weekly basis on a per farm 

basis under § 118.10(a)(3)(iv)). We 

estimate that 2,600 recordkeepers 

maintain 52 records each for a total of 

135,200 records and that it takes 

approximately 0.5 hour per 

recordkeeping. Thus, the total annual 

burden for refrigeration records is 

calculated to be 67,600 hours (135,200 

× 0.5 hour). 

We assume that records of testing, 

diversion, and treatment under 

§ 118.10(a)(3)(v) through (viii) are kept 

weekly in the event a layer house tests 

environmentally positive for SE. We 

estimate that 343 layer and pullet 

houses test positive and thus 343 

recordkeepers maintain 52 records each 

for a total of 17,836 records and that it 

takes approximately 0.5 hour per 

recordkeeping. Thus, the total annual 

burden for testing, diversion, and 

treatment records in the event of a 

positive test result is calculated to be 

8,918 hours (17,836 × 0.5 hour). 

Given a positive environmental test 

for SE, we estimate the weighted 

average number of egg tests per house 

under § 118.10(a)(3)(vii)) to be 7. We 

estimate that 331 recordkeepers 

maintain 7 records each for a total of 

2,317 records and that it takes 

approximately 8.3 hours per 

recordkeeping. Thus, the total annual 

burden for egg testing is calculated to be 

19,231 hours (2,317 × 8.3 hours). 

We estimate that all 1,577 pullet and 

4,731 layer houses not currently testing 

(6,308 recordkeepers) incur the burden 

of a single environmental test annually 

under § 118.10(a)(3)(v)). The number of 

samples taken during the test depends 

on whether a farm employs the row 

based method (an average of 12 samples 

per house) or the random sampling 

method (32 samples per house). We 

estimate that roughly 50 percent of the 

houses affected employs a row based 

method and 50 percent employs a 

random sampling method, implying an 

average of 23 samples per house. Thus, 

we estimate that 6,308 recordkeepers 

take 23 samples each for a total of 

145,084 samples. The time burden of 

sampling is estimated on a per swab 

sample basis. We estimate that it takes 

approximately 15 minutes to collect and 

pack each sample. Thus, the total 

annual burden for environmental testing 

is calculated to be 36,271 hours 

(145,084 × 0.25 hour). 

We estimate that records of testing, 

diversion, and treatment under 

§ 118.10(a)(3)(v) through (viii) are kept 

annually in the event a layer house tests 

environmentally negative for SE. We 

estimate that 5,965 layer and pullet 

houses test negative and thus 5,965 

recordkeepers maintain one record of 

that testing that takes approximately 0.5 

hour per record. Thus, the total annual 

burden for testing, diversion, and 

treatment records in the event of a 

negative test result is calculated to be 

2,983 hours (5,965 × 0.5 hour). 

Prevention plan review and 

modifications under § 118.10(a)(4)) need 

to be performed every time a house tests 

positive. We estimate that 331 layer 

houses test positive requiring plan 


wgreen on DSK2VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
4926 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 18 / Thursday, January 28, 2016 / Notices 

review and modifications and that it 

takes 10 hours to complete this work. 

Thus, the total annual burden for 

prevention plan review and 

modifications in the event of a positive 

test result is calculated to be 3,310 

hours (331 × 10 hours). 

We estimate that chick and pullet 

procurement records under 

§ 118.10(a)(2) is kept roughly once 

annually per layer house basis. We 

estimate that 4,731 layer houses 

maintain 1 record each and that it takes 

approximately 0.5 hour per 

recordkeeping. Thus, the total annual 

burden for chick and pullet 

procurement recordkeeping is 

calculated to be 2,366 hours (4,731 × 0.5 

hour). 

We estimate that rodent and other 

pest control records under 

§ 118.10(a)(3)(ii)) and biosecurity 

records under § 118.10(a)(3)(i) are kept 

weekly on a per layer house basis. We 

assume that 4,731 layer houses maintain 

a weekly record under each provision. 

Thus, we estimate 9,462 recordkeepers 

maintain 52 records each for a total of 

492,024 records. We estimate a 

recordkeeping burden of 0.5 hours per 

record for a total of 246,012 burden 

hours (492,024 × 0.5 hour). 

New prevention plan design required 

by § 118.10(a)(1) is only undertaken by 

new farms and records are kept on a per 

farm basis. We estimate that there are 

300 new farm registrations annually and 

we assume that this reflects 300 new 

farms requiring prevention plan design. 

This is an increase from our previous 

estimate based on new registrations 

received. We estimate that it takes 20 

hours to complete this work. Thus, the 

total annual burden for prevention plan 

design is calculated to be 6,000 hours 

(300 × 20 hours). 

Cleaning and disinfection 

recordkeeping under § 118.10(a)(3)(iii) 

needs to be performed every time a 

house tests positive. We estimate that 

331 layer houses test positive requiring 

1 record each and that it takes 

approximately 0.5 hour per 

recordkeeping. Thus, the total annual 

burden for cleaning and disinfection 

recordkeeping in the event of a positive 

test result is calculated to be 166 hours 

(331 × 0.5 hour).

2The term ‘‘Form FDA 3733’’ refers to both the paper version of the form and the electronic system known as the Shell Egg Producer Registration Module, which is available at http://www.access.fda.gov per § 118.11(b)(1). 

This estimate is based on the average 

number of new shell egg producer 

registrations and cancellations received 

in the past 3 years under § 118.11. We 

estimate that we will receive an average 

of 300 registrations or updates per year 

over the next 3 years. Based on the 

number of cancellations previously 

received, we estimate that we will 

receive approximately 30 cancellations 

per year over the next 3 years. 

We estimate that it takes the average 

farm 2.3 hours to register taking into 

account that some respondents 

completing the registration may not 

have readily available Internet access. 

Thus, the total annual burden for new 

shell egg producer registrations or 

updates is calculated to be 690 hours 

(300 × 2.3 hours). 

We estimate cancelling a registration, 

on average, requires a burden of 

approximately 1 hour, taking into 

account that some respondents may not 

have readily available Internet access. 

Thus, the total annual burden for 

cancelling shell egg producer 

registrations is calculated to be 30 hours 

(30 cancellations × 1 hour).
