This is a request for OMB renewal for
FDA's regulations for cigarettes and smokeless tobacco containing
nicotine. The codified regulations at 21 CFR Part 1140 are
authorized by section 102 of the Family Smoking Prevention and
Tobacco Control Act (Tobacco Control Act) (Public Law 111-31). This
collection includes reporting information requirements for §
1140.30, which directs persons to notify FDA if they intend to use
a form of advertising that is not addressed in the regulations. As
the public is being advised through the FDA guidance entitled
"Enforcement Policy Concerning Certain Regulations Restricting the
Sale and Distribution of Cigarettes and Smokeless Tobacco," the
recordkeeping and disclosure requirements under section 1140.32 are
not being enforced, and therefore, FDA is including 2 hours of
burden as placeholders with this provision.
The estimated burden hours have
been reduced from 125,007 hours to 302 hours. The reduction
reflects: • FDA's is not enforcing § 1140.32 (for a reduction of
125,004 hours), and • The expected increase of 299 hours due to the
expectation that 300 respondents will notify the FDA under §
1140.30 if they intend to use an advertising medium that is not
listed in the regulation (Note that FDA has placed two 1-hour place
holders for burden in § 1140.32 to reflect FDA enforcement
discretion.)
