Center for Veterinary Medicine eSubmitter Workshop; Public 
Workshop; Request for Comments

AGENCY:  Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION:  Notice of public workshop; request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing a public 
workshop entitled: ``Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM) eSubmitter 
Workshop.'' The purpose of the public workshop is to provide the 
regulated animal health industry that submits new animal drug 
applications to CVM's Office of New Animal Drug Evaluation (ONADE) 
access to the beta-release of the electronic submission tool 
(eSubmitter) developed by CVM as agreed to in the Animal Drug User Fee 
Amendments (ADUFA II) of 2008 (http://www.fda.gov/ForIndustry/UserFees/AnimalDrugUserFeeActADUFA/ucm044941.htm). The ONADE will be soliciting 
feedback on both the eSubmitter tool and its compatibility with the 
industry's current IT systems, as well as the questions asked within 
the tool.
    This workshop will fulfill one of the 10 workshops agreed to in 
ADUFA II. The workshop will provide insight on the eSubmitter template 
development and its customization for the animal health industry as 
well as providing break-out sessions in which specific submissions will 
be built as part of the demonstration. Lastly, the ONADE will be 
seeking up to nine participating companies to work with CVM in testing 
the transmission of eSubmitter developed files through FDA's electronic 
submission gateway (ESG) and CVM's electronic submission system (ESS). 
Information about the workshop and availability of the eSubmitter tool 
can be found on FDA's eSubmitter Web site at http://www.fda.gov/ForIndustry/FDAeSubmitter/default.htm.
