This information collection supports information collection requirements under the Current Good Manufacturing Practice regulations for Positron Emission Tomography (PET) drugs. The regulations establish recordkeeping requirements that include: Batch Production and Control Records; Equipment and Facilities Records; Records of Components, Containers, and Closures; Process Vertification; Laboratory Testing Records; Sterility Test Failure Notices; Conditional Final Releases; Out-of-Specification Investigations; Reprocessing Procedures; Distribution Records; and Complaints. The regulations also require 3rd Party Disclosure requirements regarding specific notices. Respondents to the collection are manufacturers of PET drugs.
The information collection reflects adjustments. Because fewer PET drug batches have been produced at the respective sites, the burden estimate reflects a decrease of 707,007 fewer records and 73,441 fewer hours, which we believe reflects the average burden for all respondents.
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).

(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
