This ICR supports agency programs by
which respondents who satisfy specified criteria may voluntarily be
included on established lists of those wanting to export
FDA-regulated products to foreign countries. Respondents who wish
to be included on the list will voluntarily send information to
FDA, including the name and address of the firm and the
manufacturing plant, a list of products presently shipped and
expected to be shipped in the future, and identities of agencies
that inspect the plant, plant number and copy of last
inspection.
We have upgraded the electronic
reporting module (ELM) for respondents to the collection and have
consolidated like information collections from OMB Control Nos.
0910-0320 and 0910-0839. Overall this reflects an increase in
responses from 4,200 to 5,190 (+990 responses) and a corresponding
increase in burden hours from 3,100 to 22,288 hours (+19,188
hours).
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
