This collection requires each tobacco
product manufacturer or importer, or an agent, to report to FDA
"all constituents, including smoke constituents, identified by
[FDA] as harmful or potentially harmful to health in each tobacco
product, and as applicable in the smoke of each tobacco product."
These entities must also provide similar information at least 90
days prior to introducing the product into interstate
commerce.

and Tobacco Control Act (the Tobacco Control Act)
Our estimated burden for the
information collection reflects an overall decrease of 2,125 hours
and a corresponding decrease of 142 responses. We attribute this
decrease to updated information on the number of submissions we
received over the last few years. We removed the additional HPHC
reports IC as these are no longer being submitted to FDA because as
of August 2016, a court decision ruled that name and label changes
(under substantial equivalence) do not render a product new.
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
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
