This information collection supports FDA regulations regarding records and reports concerning experience with approved new animal drugs. Respondents to the collection are animal drug manufacturers with approved new animal drug applications (NADAs), abbreviated new animal drug applications (ANADAs), or conditionally approved new animal drug applications (CNADAs), as well as licensed commercial feed mills and licensed mixer-feeders. The reporting and recordkeeping elements implement public health protection provisions provided for in the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic.
This rulemaking revises the information collection to require electronic reporting or the granting of a waiver from the requirement. We have updated our mandatory reporting element (IC element 1) to reflect estimates consistent with the final rule, which results in a decrease in both annual responses and burden hours in the amount of 1512. This is because the currently approved estimate was shown to be too high by the FRIA for the final rule. Ultimately, upon approval of the revision, the 270 responses and hours attributable to mandatory electronic reporting will be captured under OMB Control No. 0910-0645, FDAâs Adverse Event Reporting System (which administers our MedWatch Program), however the 1 request for waiver will be retained in this information collection. We have also added a one-time recordkeeping burden in the amount of 30 responses and 30 burden hours to reflect implementation of the new requirements, but we expect this burden to be realized upon the next renewal request for the information collection (currently expires March 31, 2021). Cumulatively, these changes reflect a total decrease of 1481 hours and 1481 responses annually.
