Agencies must obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for each collection of information they conduct or sponsor.
``Collection of information'' is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes Agency requests or requirements that members of
the public submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a
third party. Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A))
requires Federal Agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal
Register concerning each proposed collection of information before
submitting the collection to OMB for approval. To comply with this
requirement, FDA is publishing notice of the proposed collection of
information set forth in this document.
With respect to the following collection of information, FDA
invites comments on these topics: (1) Whether the proposed collection
of information is necessary for the proper performance of FDA's
functions, including whether the information will have practical
utility; (2) the accuracy of FDA's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents,
including through the use of automated collection techniques, when
appropriate, and other forms of information technology.
Recommended Recordkeeping for Exempt Infant Formula Production--OMB
Control Number 0910--NEW
I. Background
Section 412(h)(1) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the
FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 350a(h)(1)) exempts an infant formula which is
represented and labeled for use by an infant with an inborn error of
metabolism, low birth weight, or who otherwise has an unusual medical
or dietary problem from the requirements of section 412(a), (b), and
(c) of the FD&C Act. These formulas are customarily referred to as
``exempt infant formulas.'' In the Federal Register of June 10, 2014
(79 FR 33057), we published a final rule that adopted, with some
modifications, an interim final rule published on February 10, 2014 (79
FR 7933), that established requirements for quality factors for infant
formulas and current good manufacturing practices (CGMPs), including
quality control procedures, under section 412 of the FD&C Act. The
final rule will help prevent the manufacture of adulterated infant
formula, ensure the safety of infant formula, and ensure that the
nutrients in infant formula are present in a form that is bioavailable.
In the Federal Register of February 10, 2014 (79 FR 7610), we
published a notice of availability of the draft guidance document
entitled ``Guidance for Industry: Exempt Infant Formula Production:
Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMPs), Quality Control
Procedures, Conduct of Audits, and Records and Reports'' (the draft
guidance). The draft guidance, when finalized, will describe our
current thinking on the manufacturing of exempt infant formula in
relation to the requirements in part 106 (21 CFR part 106) for CGMPs,
quality control procedures, conduct of audits, and records and reports
that apply to nonexempt infant formulas. Persons with access to the
Internet may obtain the draft guidance at http://www.fda.gov/FoodGuidances.
II. Analysis of the Proposed Information Collection
The proposed information collection seeks OMB approval of the
recordkeeping recommendations of the draft guidance. Our estimate of
the burden of the recordkeeping recommendations includes the one-time
burden of developing production and in-process control systems and the
annual burdens of developing and maintaining production aggregate
production and control records, records pertaining to the distribution
of infant formula, and records pertaining to regularly scheduled
audits. Included in the burden estimate is the time for reviewing
instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and
maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing each
collection of information.
Description of Respondents: The respondent recordkeepers are
manufacturers of exempt infant formula.
Description: The records recommended, to the extent practicable, in
the draft guidance include records required by part 106, subparts A, B,
C, D, and F for non-exempt infant formulas. Because the records and
reporting requirements related to part 106 subparts E and G are not
generally applicable to exempt infant formula manufacturers, FDA is not
recommending in the draft guidance that exempt infant formula
manufacturers follow these
[[Page 14135]]
requirements. As such, the records and reporting requirements in part
106 subparts E and G are not part of this new information collection.
FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as
follows:
The total one-time estimated burden imposed by this collection of
information is 19,320 hours. The total annual estimated burden imposed
by this collection of information is 6,328.06 hours. There are no
capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this
collection of information. The estimated burden for the draft guidance
is based on ``Evaluation of Recordkeeping Costs for Food
Manufacturers,'' Eastern Research Group Task Order No. 5, Contract No.
223-01-2461. FDA estimates that firms will be able to fulfill
recordkeeping requirements with existing record systems; that is, FDA
estimates that it will not be necessary for infant formula firms to
invest in new recordkeeping systems.
As of the beginning of 2015, five manufacturers produce exempt
infant formulas that are marketed in the United States. Four out of
these five infant formula manufacturers produce both exempt and non-
exempt infant formulas, with both types of infant formula produced
using the same production lines and equipment. Our experts believe that
manufacturing practices are similar for both exempt and non-exempt
infant formulas. Furthermore, given expert estimations of industry
standard practices, it is estimated that the manufacturer that only
produces exempt infant formula has practices comparable to those
manufacturers producing both exempt and non-exempt infant formulas
(Ref. 1). Together, these 5 manufacturers produce exempt infant formula
at 12 plants.
The number of recordkeepers in column 3 of table 1 is based on
FDA's expert estimation of the number of plants that may not already be
adhering to the relevant recordkeeping provisions of the final rule.
The Regulatory Impact Analysis for the final rule (79 FR 33057)
estimated that 25 percent of all infant formula plants manufacturing
non-exempt infant formula were not currently adhering to the
recordkeeping provisions under Sec. 106.100. Although such
recordkeeping requirements are now effective for manufacturers of non-
exempt infant formulas, and manufacturers of exempt infant formulas may
have implemented similar procedures for their exempt infant formulas,
it is estimated conservatively that this same proportion (25 percent,
or 3 out of 12 plants that manufacture exempt infant formula) are not
currently adhering to the recordkeeping provisions, and unless
otherwise specified, burdens are estimated based on these 3 plants.
Furthermore, we estimate that plants will collect the same information
across the various exempt infant formulas produced by each firm.
For records pertaining to production and in-process controls, FDA
estimates that, at most, three plants do not currently develop
production records as specified under Sec. Sec. 106.6(c)(5) and
106.100(e)(1) and (e)(3). A team of two senior validation engineers (or
other similarly skilled employees) per plant (2 workers per plant x 3
plants = 6 workers) would each need to work 20 hours to provide
sufficient initial baseline records and documentation to develop
records pertaining to production and in-process controls, for an
industry total of 120 hours (2 workers per plant x 3 plants x 20 hours
per worker = 120 hours), as presented in line 1 of table 1.
For the recordkeeping specified under Sec. 106.35(c), in
accordance with Sec. 106.100(f)(5), FDA estimates that a team of 10
senior validation engineers (or other similarly skilled employees) per
plant would need to work full time for 16 weeks (16 weeks/person x 40
work hours/week = 640 work hours per person) to provide sufficient
initial records and documentation pertaining to controls intended to
prevent adulteration due to automatic equipment. The total burden for
10 senior validation engineers each working 640 hours is 6,400 per
plant in the first year (10 senior validation engineers x 640 hours =
6,400). For three plants, the total one-time hourly burden is 3 plants
x 6,400 hours per plant = 19,200 hours, as presented in line 2 of table
1.
For the testing specified under Sec. 106.20(f)(3), manufacturers
of exempt infant formulas should conduct water testing with appropriate
frequency to meet Environmental Protection Agency primary standards for
drinking water (40 CFR parts 9, 141, and 142), but shall conduct these
tests at least annually for chemical contaminants, every 4 years for
radiological contaminants, and weekly for bacteriological contaminants.
FDA estimates that it is part of normal business practice for exempt
infant formula plants to test for chemical contaminants and keep
records of those tests on a regular basis; therefore, this is a new
collection of information that does not present a burden (Ref. 1).
It is estimated that the recommendation to manufacturers of exempt
infant formulas to test at least every 4 years for radiological
contaminants would represent a new burden for all 12 infant formula
plants (Ref. 1). In addition, it is estimated that collecting water for
this testing takes between 1 and 2 hours (Ref. 1). For the purposes of
this analysis, it is conservatively estimated that water collection
takes, on average, 1.5 hours and that water collection occurs
separately for each type of testing. It is estimated that performing
the test (collecting the information) will take 1.5 hours per test,
every 4 years. Therefore, 1.5 hours per plant x 12 plants = 18 total
hours, every 4 years, or 4.5 hours per year, as seen in line 3 of table
1.
Furthermore, the draft guidance recommends that manufacturers of
exempt infant formula make and retain records of the frequency and
results of water testing as specified under Sec. Sec. 106.20(f)(4) and
106.100(f)(1). For the 12 plants that are estimated not to currently
test for radiological contaminants, this burden is estimated to be 5
minutes per record every 4 years. Therefore, 0.08 hour per record x 12
plants = 0.96 hour every 4 years for the maintenance of records of
radiological testing, or 0.24 hours per year, as seen on line 4 of
table 1.
It is estimated that the recommendation to test weekly for
bacteriological contaminants is a new burden for three infant formula
plants. It is estimated that performing the test (collecting the
information) will take 5 minutes per test once a week. Annually, this
burden is 0.08 hour x 52 weeks = 4.16 hours per year per plant, and
4.16 hours per plant x 3 plants = 12.48 total annual hours, as seen on
line 5 of table 1. Furthermore, for the three plants that are estimated
to not currently test weekly for bacteriological contaminants, this
burden is estimated to be 5 minutes per record, every week. Therefore,
0.08 hour per record x 52 weeks = 4.16 hours per plant for the
maintenance of records of bacteriological testing. Accordingly, 4.16
hours per plant x 3 plants = 12.48 annual hours, as seen on line 6 of
table 1.
The draft guidance recommends that manufacturers of exempt infant
formulas calibrate certain instruments against a known reference
standard and that records of these calibration activities be made and
retained, as specified in Sec. Sec. 106.30(d)(1) and 106.100(f)(2).
FDA estimates that one senior validation engineer (or other similarly
skilled employee) for each of the three (at most) plants would need to
spend about 13 minutes per week to conduct the ongoing calibration
recordkeeping. Therefore, 3 recordkeepers x 0.21 hours per week per
[[Page 14136]]
recordkeeper = 0.63 hours per week; 0.63 hours per week x 52 weeks per
year = 32.76 hours as the total industry annual burden, as presented in
line 7 of table 1.
The draft guidance recommends that manufacturers of exempt infant
formula make and retain records of the temperatures of each cold
storage compartment as specified in Sec. Sec. 106.30(e)(3)(iii) and
106.100(f)(3). Based on expert opinion, FDA estimates that three (at
most) plants are not currently conducting recordkeeping, and that at
each of these three plants, conducting this recordkeeping would take
one senior validation engineer (or other similarly skilled employee)
about 13 minutes per week. Therefore, 3 recordkeepers x 0.21 hours per
week per recordkeeper = 0.63 hours per week; 0.63 hours per week x 52
weeks = 32.76 hours as the total industry annual burden, as presented
in line 8 of table 1.
The draft guidance recommends the making and retention of records
of ongoing sanitation efforts as specified under Sec. Sec.
106.30(f)(2) and 106.100(f)(4). Based on expert opinion, FDA estimates
that three (at most) plants are not currently making and retaining
these records, and that at each of these three plants, it would take
one senior validation engineer (or other similarly skilled employee)
0.19 hours per week to make and retain these records. Therefore, 3
recordkeepers x 0.19 hours per week per recordkeeper = 0.57 hours per
week; 0.57 hours per week x 52 weeks = 29.64 hours as the total
industry annual burden, as presented in line 9 of table 1.
There will be annual recordkeeping associated with recommendations
for preventing adulteration from equipment, as specified under
Sec. Sec. 106.35(c) and 106.100(f)(5). It is estimated that one senior
validation engineer (or other similarly skilled employee) per plant
would need to work 10 hours per week (520 work hours per year) to meet
the ongoing recordkeeping recommendation. For the estimated three (at
most) plants not conducting this recordkeeping, the total annual burden
is 520 hours per plant x 3 plants = 1,560 annual hours, as shown in
line 10 of table 1. In addition, this guidance recommends that an
infant formula manufacturer revalidate its systems when it makes
changes to automatic equipment. FDA estimates that such changes are
likely to occur twice a year to any aspect of the plant's system, and
that on each of the two occasions, a team of four senior validation
engineers (or other similarly skilled employees) per plant would need
to work full time for 4 weeks (4 weeks x 40 hours per week = 160 work
hours per person) to provide revalidation of the plant's automated
systems sufficient to adhere to this section. The total annual burden
for four senior validation engineers each working 160 hours twice a
year is 1,280 hours ((160 hours x 2 revalidations) x 4 engineers =
1,280 total work hours) per plant. Therefore, 1,280 hours per plant x 3
plants = 3,840 annual hours, as shown on line 11 of table 1.
The draft guidance recommends written specifications for
ingredients, containers, and closures, as specified under Sec. Sec.
106.40(g) and 106.100(f)(6). FDA estimates that the exempt infant
formula industry already establishes written specifications for these
components. However, the guidance regarding controls to prevent
adulteration caused by ingredients, containers, and closures may
represent new recordkeeping for three (at most) plants (Ref. 1). It is
not possible to predict how often a specification will not be met or
how often documented reviews of reconditioned ingredients, closures, or
containers will occur. FDA estimates that, on average, one senior
validation engineer per plant would work about 10 minutes a week to
complete this recordkeeping. Therefore, 3 recordkeepers x 0.17 hours
per week per recordkeeper = 0.51 hours per week; 0.51 hours per week x
52 weeks = 26.52 total annual hours, as presented in line 12 of table
1.
This draft guidance recommends manufacturers of exempt infant
formula to make and maintain records of controls to prevent
adulteration during manufacturing, as specified in Sec. Sec. 106.50
and 106.100(e). It is not possible to predict how often changes to the
master manufacturing order would be made or how often deviations from
the master manufacturing order would occur. Based on expert opinion,
FDA estimates that each year, three (at most) plants would change a
master manufacturing order and that, on average, one senior validation
engineer for each of the three (at most) plants would spend about 14
minutes per week on recordkeeping pertaining to the master
manufacturing order. Thus, 3 recordkeepers x 0.23 hours per
recordkeeper per week = 0.69 hours per week; 0.69 hours per week x 52
weeks = 35.88 hours as the total annual industry burden, as presented
in line 13 of table 1.
The draft guidance recommends manufacturers of exempt infant
formula make and retain records of the testing of infant formula for
microorganisms, as specified in Sec. Sec. 106.55(d) and
106.100(e)(5)(ii) and (f)(7). We estimate that this recordkeeping
represents a new collection of information for, at most, three plants
(Ref. 1) and that one senior validation engineer per plant would spend
15 minutes per week on recordkeeping pertaining to microbiological
testing. Thus, 3 recordkeepers x 0.25 hours per recordkeeper per week =
0.75 hours; 0.75 hours per week x 52 weeks = 39 hours as the total
annual industry burden, as presented in line 14 of table 1.
The draft guidance recommends that exempt infant formula
manufacturers make and maintain records consistent with the
requirements for the labeling of mixed-lot packages of infant formula
that apply to non-exempt infant formula manufacturers, as specified
under Sec. 106.60(c). We estimate that the draft guidance will result
in infant formula diverters labeling infant formula packaging (such as
packing cases) to facilitate product tracing and to keep specific
records of the distribution of these mixed lot cases. (A diverter is
considered to be a business or individual that purchases food,
including occasionally infant formula, in a geographic area where a
special allowance or deal is being offered and then resells that food
at a lower price to wholesale or retail grocery, drug and mass
merchandise chains in an area where the deal is not being offered.)
There will be some cost associated with this recordkeeping and
labeling, but the Agency estimates that this burden would be minimal as
it is estimated that less than 1 percent of infant formula is handled
by diverters. For the purposes of this analysis, it is estimated that,
for all plants combined, it may take one worker using manual methods 15
minutes, at most, to relabel one case of infant formula one time each
month (0.25 hours per month x 12 months = 3 annual hours), as presented
in line 15 of table 1.
The draft guidance recommends nutrient testing for exempt infant
formula manufacturers as specified in Sec. 106.91(a)(1) to (a)(4). It
is estimated that the systems and processes of 100 percent of the
exempt formula industry test in accordance with these provisions.
Therefore, nutrient testing does not represent a new recordkeeping
burden as nutrient testing is estimated to be common business practice
in the exempt infant formula industry. Thus, no burden is estimated for
these recommendations (Ref. 1).
The draft guidance also recommends ongoing stability testing as
specified under Sec. 106.91(b)(1), (b)(2), and (b)(3). It is estimated
that the systems and processes of the infant formula industry
[[Page 14137]]
partially adhere to this guidance in that 80 percent of infant formula
plants (about 10 of 12 plants) conduct stability testing as recommended
(Ref. 1). For the 20 percent of plants (2 of 12 plants) that do not
conduct stability testing, it is estimated that these plants do conduct
initial stability testing, but may not do so at the intervals specified
in this provision (Ref. 1). For the purposes of this analysis, it is
estimated that the stability testing guidance represents a new
information collection burden of 2 annual hours, per plant. Therefore,
2 hours per plant x 2 plants = 4 annual hours as shown in line 16 of
table 1.
The draft guidance recommends recordkeeping for test results as
specified under Sec. Sec. 106.91(d) and 106.100(e)(5)(i). This
represents new information collections for the two plants that are
estimated not to be conducting all of the stability testing specified
in Sec. 106.91(b) (Ref. 1). For the purposes of this analysis, FDA
estimates that one senior validation engineer per plant would spend
about 9 minutes per week maintaining records related to testing. Thus,
2 recordkeepers x 0.15 hours per recordkeeper per week = 0.3 hours per
week x 52 weeks = 15.6 hours as the annual total industry burden, as
presented in lines 17, 18, and 19 of table 1.
The draft guidance recommends the creation of audit plans and
procedures, as specified under Sec. 106.94. FDA estimates that all
exempt infant formula manufacturers currently conduct audits, but that
25 percent of infant formula plants (3 of 12 plants) do not conduct
audits that include all elements specified in Sec. 106.94 (Ref. 1). It
is estimated that the ongoing review and updating of audit plans would
require a senior validation engineer 8 hours per year, per plant.
Therefore, 8 hours per year per plant x 3 plants = 24 annual hours to
regularly review and update audit plans as shown in line 20 of table 1.
The infant formula final rule does not mandate a frequency of
auditing, and, therefore, one is not recommended in the draft guidance.
For the purposes of this analysis, FDA estimates that a manufacturer
would choose to audit once per week. Each weekly audit is estimated to
require a senior validation engineer 4 hours, or 52 weeks x 4 hours =
208 hours per plant per year. Therefore, the total annual burden for
the estimated three plants not currently acting in accordance to this
guidance to update audit plans is 208 hours x 3 plants = 624 hours, as
shown in line 21 of table 1.
