Abstract: The elements of the manufactured food regulatory program standards are intended to ensure that the States have the best practices of a high-quality regulatory program to use for self-assessment and continuous improvement and innovation. The ten standards describe the critical elements of a regulatory program designed to protect the public from foodborne illness and injury. These elements include the State program's regulatory foundation, staff training, inspection, quality assurance, food defense preparedness and response, foodborne illness and incident investigation, enforcement, education and outreach, resource management, laboratory resources, and program assessment. Each standard has corresponding self-assessment worksheets, and certain standards have supplemental worksheets and forms that will assist State programs in determining their level of conformance with the standard. FDA will use the program standards as a tool to improve contracts with State agencies. The program standards will assist both FDA and the States in fulfilling their regulatory obligations.

Burden increases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Increase Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: One additional State has enrolled in the program since 2016. The total estimated burden for this collection has increased by 25,875 hours to 41,667 hours among 43 respondents, from a previous total of 15,792 hours among 42 respondents. This increase is due to a change in the self-reported response times provided by the respondents, the addition of the State in 2016, and the addition of estimated recordkeeping burden for this collection. Because this is a long-term program, we believe these changes are the result of more precise documentation by participating agencies as they have grown more experienced over time.
