review and clearance.

Survey of Current Manufacturing Practices for the Cosmetics Industry

OMB Control Number 0910--NEW

    FDA has the responsibility to protect public health and, as part of
this broad mandate, oversees the safety of the nation's cosmetic
products. The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) prohibits
the introduction into interstate commerce of any cosmetic that is
adulterated or misbranded; cosmetics are also to be safe and properly
labeled.
    The FD&C Act defines cosmetics as articles intended to be rubbed,
poured, sprinkled, or sprayed on, introduced into, or otherwise applied
to the human body for cleansing, beautifying, promoting attractiveness,
or altering the appearance. Among the products included in this
definition are skin moisturizers, perfumes, lipsticks, fingernail
polishes, eye and facial makeup, cleansing shampoos, permanent waves,
hair colors, deodorants, and tattoo inks, as well as any substance
intended for use as a component of a cosmetic product. Some cosmetic
products are also regulated as drugs.
    As with other commodities FDA regulates, the safety of cosmetic
products can be ensured in part through a manufacturer's approach to
the management of cosmetic quality. To date, FDA has not identified in
the published literature any systematic, detailed study of the
diversity of the practices and standards employed across the cosmetic
industry. This study is intended to fill this gap. FDA proposes to
conduct a voluntary survey of cosmetics establishments to identify the
current manufacturing practices in the cosmetic industry.
    The survey instrument will collect data, on a voluntary basis, from
cosmetic product manufacturers on the following topics:
     Written Procedures and Documentation--including written
procedures and records for manufacturing involving personnel, raw
materials, processing, cleaning, maintenance, finished products, and
training.
     Buildings and Equipment--including facility space, pest
control, practices ensuring the cleanliness and sanitation, water usage
and treatment, and the proper functioning and operation of equipment.
     Materials and Manufacturing--including practices for
inventory management, labeling and storage of raw materials, closures,
and in process materials, and in process standard operating procedures.
     Quality Control/Product Testing--including the scope of
the quality control unit, laboratory testing, dealing with rejected or
returned products and complaints, and corrective actions.
    In addition, FDA will obtain the characteristics of surveyed
establishments such as the types of cosmetics produced, published
standards and guidelines followed, the number of employees, the volume
of production, and the approximate

revenue. The survey will be administered by web or by mail (respondent
choice) and it will be directed to the Plant Manager of the cosmetics
establishment.
    This is a new, one-time data collection. FDA does not plan to
collect this data from the cosmetics industry on an ongoing basis.
    In the Federal Register of July 2, 2018 (83 FR 30940), FDA
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed
collection of information. FDA received three comments. FDA thanks the
commenters for their comments and provides our responses below.
    The first comment expressed concern that the collection was
voluntary, and a number of manufacturers may not participate, which
will not inform FDA of manufacturers who are not observing good
manufacturing practices. They also indicated that they feel the survey
could help set future standards for the industry. In response to this
comment, FDA notes that this survey is being conducted to inform FDA
with updated information about the practices and standards employed
across the cosmetics industry. With regard to identifying manufacturers
who are not observing good manufacturing practices, the survey is
structured to provide FDA with anonymized, updated cosmetic industry
information, not individual response information about any of its
participants.
    The second comment addressed specific PRA issues of necessity,
burden estimate, quality and utility of the survey, and method of
collection. The commenter feels that the survey is not necessary for
proper FDA oversight of the industry because this information is
already available to FDA through its facility inspections. They also
indicated that they had not seen the actual questions on the survey,
and therefore felt the burden estimate was not feasible. They suggested
that FDA partner with outside sources to assist FDA in gathering
information about the industry and thought that web or mail collection
was reasonable.
    In response to the second comment, FDA noted in the Federal
Register of July 2, 2018 that FDA has ``not identified in the published
literature any systematic, detailed study of the diversity of the
practices and standards employed across the cosmetic industry to ensure
product quality and safety.'' FDA is conducting this survey to fill
this gap in knowledge, and this survey is necessary to achieve this
goal. With regard to the survey itself, it is (and has been) available
at the FDA Docket assigned to this collection (FDA-2018-N-2027). We
agree that the burden is likely greater than 30 minutes, and based on
results of our pretest with six individuals, we have increased the
burden estimate to 60 minutes. FDA's contractor did consult with
industry stakeholders in the development of the survey instrument.
Finally, FDA thanks the commenter for their comments and thoughts that
our suggested method of web or collection method was reasonable.
    The third comment was not related to the PRA and will not be
addressed at this time.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as
follows:

\1\ There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information.

    We will select a sample of 898 establishments. After adjusting for
ineligibility (i.e., firms that do not produce cosmetic products and
those no longer in operation) and a response rate of 70 percent, we
expect 564 completed surveys.
    We expect each individual survey invitation to take 5 minutes (0.08
hour) to complete. Multiplying by the 898 establishments that will
receive the survey invitation, we estimate the time burden of the
survey invitation to be 71.84 hours. Previously, we estimated that the
survey would take 30 minutes to complete. However, based on our pretest
with six individuals, we now expect each individual survey to take, on
average, 60 minutes (1 hour) to complete. Multiplying by the estimated
564 establishments that will complete the survey, we estimate the time
burden of the survey to be 564 hours. We estimate the total hourly
reporting burden for this collection of information to be 635.84 hours.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PHMSA received a special permit request on
June 22, 2022, from CGT, a subsidiary of TC Energy, Inc., seeking a
waiver for two (2) pipeline segments from the requirements of 49 CFR
192.611(a) and (d): Change in class location: Confirmation or revision
of maximum allowable operating pressure, and 49 CFR 192.619(a): Maximum
allowable operating pressure: Steel or plastic pipelines. The requested
pipeline segments are proposed to be added to special permit Docket
Number PHMSA-2019-0201, due to the pipeline segments being located
within the inspection areas of this existing special permit.
    This special permit is being requested in lieu of pipe replacement,
pressure reduction, or new pressure tests for a Class 1 to 3 location
change on two (2) gas transmission pipeline segments totaling 3,806.00
feet (approximately 0.721 miles). These pipeline segments, which have
changed from a Class 1 to a Class 3 location, are as follows:
