Comment Info: =================

General Comment:Dear Mr. Zeller and the F.D.A.

	My name is Tyler Rap, I am an individual consumer of a personal vaporizer also know as an electronic cigarette.   I fist want to comment that I do in fact support regulation of these devises along with cigars and hookahs. I do believe we as consumers and our vendors do need more time to assess these regulations to comment and try and meet on middle ground with the FDA. I would personally like to request an extension of the comment period for the Food and Drug Administration's ("FDA") Proposed Rule Deeming Tobacco Products to be Subject to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, as amended by the Family Smoking and Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (the "Proposed Rule") published at 79 Fed. Reg. 23,142 and Federal Register No. 2014-09491. On behalf of myself, I am requesting that the comment period for the Proposed Rule be extended by the FDA for an additional 105 days, from its current 75-day period, to 180 days.

	The Proposed Rile raises many questions for myself and all my fellow electronic cigarettes users. The Proposed Rule asks many questions that I would like time to contemplate and develop a well thought out response. I have spent many hours reading the Proposed Rule and would like to comment and research many of the questions that have been asked. Due to the limited time for comment I don’t feel that I can give the attention to all the areas of concern I have and would like to address. As the FDA took many years to build thie Proposed Rule I believe it is only fair to allow consumers and vendors a fraction of that time , a short six months, to develop our comments and response to the rules. This is our only time to get our voices, as the consumers, heard and an extension of 105 days would help us all greatly.

	I have been an ex smoke for almost an entire year now after smoking  for upwards of 8 years. I had tried many different tactics to quit and e-cigarettes were the only thing I have tried that has worked and kept me from smoking combustible cigarettes.   While I understand there are unknown heath risks with “vaping” I strongly feel it has saved many years of my life.  I can tell you after a year of vaping I fell 100% better then when I was smoking combustible cigarettes. I want to share my story as well as any and all scientific and evidence –based results to your questions so that all my comments are taken into consideration.  I realize that the FDA has the authority under 21 CFR 10.40 to extend this time please  ask that you do so here, so that all consumers and vendors alike have the opportunity to provide their comments on this proposed regulation.

	I appreciate your willingness to listen to the general public and your consideration of my request. I am happy to discuss all or any further issues with this Proposed Rule.  									Thank you, 									Tyler Rap

B. Background and Purpose

    On August 23, 2013, a fireworks display is planned on Lake Erie in
the vicinity of Catawba Island, OH. This fireworks display will be
launched in conjunction with a wedding. The Captain of the Port Detroit
has determined that this fireworks display pose a significant risk to
public safety and property on the water. Such hazards include premature
detonations, dangerous projectiles, and falling or burning debris.
Also, the likely combination of recreational boaters, congested
waterways, darkness punctuated by bright flashes of light, alcohol use,
and debris falling into the water could easily result in serious
injuries or fatalities.
    With these hazards in mind, the Captain of the Port Detroit
proposes to establish a temporary safety zone pursuant to the authority
granted in the Ports and Waterways Safety Act (33 U.S.C. 1221 et seq.).

C. Discussion of Proposed Rule

    To address the hazards mentioned in the preceding paragraph, the
Coast Guard proposes to establish a temporary safety zone in the
vicinity of the aforementioned fireworks display. This proposed safety
zone will include all U.S. navigable waters of Lake Erie within a 250-
yard radius of the fireworks launch site, which is located at position
41-34'-18.10'' N, 082-51'-18.70'' W (NAD 83).
    This proposed safety zone will be enforced from 9:30 p.m. until
10:15 p.m. on August 23, 2013. The Captain of the Port Detroit may
suspend enforcement of the safety zone at any time. In the event that
enforcement is ended early, the Captain of the Port Detroit will notify
the public via Broadcast Notice to Mariners.
    Entry into, transiting, or anchoring within the proposed safety
zone while it is being enforced is prohibited without the authority of
the Captain of the Port Detroit or his on-scene representative. The
Captain of the Port or his on-scene representative may be contacted via
VHF Channel 16.

D. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this proposed rule after considering numerous statutes
and executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our
analyses based on these statutes or executive orders.

1. Regulatory Planning and Review

    This proposed rule is not a significant regulatory action under
section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review,
and does not require an assessment of potential costs and benefits
under section 6(a)(3) of that Order. The Office of Management and
Budget has not reviewed it under that Order. It is not ``significant''
under the regulatory policies and procedures of the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS). We conclude that this proposed rule is not a
significant regulatory action because we anticipate that it will have
minimal impact on the economy, will

not interfere with other agencies, will not adversely alter the budget
of any grant or loan recipients, and will not raise any novel legal or
policy issues.
    The safety zone established by this proposed rule will be
relatively small and enforced for a relatively short time. Also, the
safety zone is designed to minimize its impact on navigable waters.
Thus, restrictions on vessel movement are expected to be minimal. Under
certain conditions, moreover, vessels may still transit through the
proposed safety zone when permitted by the Captain of the Port. On the
whole, the Coast Guard expects insignificant adverse impact to mariners
from this proposed safety zone.

2. Impact on Small Entities

    Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612), we have
considered the impact of this proposed rule on small entities. The
Coast Guard certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this proposed rule
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities.
    This proposed rule would affect the following entities, some of
which may be small entities: The owners or operators of vessels
intending to transit or anchor in the above portion of Lake Erie
between 9:30 p.m. until 10:15 p.m. on August 23, 2013. This safety zone
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities for the reasons discussed in the Regulatory Planning and
Review section above.
    If you think that your business, organization, or governmental
jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity and that this rule would have
a significant economic impact on it, please submit a comment (see
ADDRESSES) explaining why you think it qualifies and how and to what
degree this rule would economically affect it.

3. Assistance for Small Entities

    Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121), we want to assist small
entities in understanding this proposed rule. If the rule would affect
your small business, organization, or governmental jurisdiction and you
have questions concerning its provisions or options for compliance,
please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT, above. The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small
entities that question or complain about this proposed rule or any
policy or action of the Coast Guard.

4. Collection of Information

    This proposed rule would call for no new collection of information
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).

5. Federalism

    A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect on the States, on the
relationship between the national government and the States, or on the
distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of
government. We have analyzed this proposed rule under that Order and
determined that this rule does not have implications for federalism.

6. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538)
requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary
regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may
result in the expenditure by a State, local, or tribal government, in
the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 (adjusted for
inflation) or more in any one year. Though this proposed rule would not
result in such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule
elsewhere in this preamble.

7. Taking of Private Property

    This proposed rule would not affect a taking of private property or
otherwise have taking implications under Executive Order 12630,
Governmental Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected
Property Rights.

9. Civil Justice Reform

    This proposed rule meets applicable standards in sections 3(a) and
3(b)(2) of Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize
litigation, eliminate ambiguity, and reduce burden.

9. Protection of Children From Environmental Health Risks

    We have analyzed this proposed rule under Executive Order 13045,
Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety
Risks. This rule is not an economically significant rule and would not
create an environmental risk to health or risk to safety that might
disproportionately affect children.

10. Indian Tribal Governments

    This proposed rule does not have tribal implications under
Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments, because it does not have a substantial direct effect on
one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal
Government and Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes.

11. Energy Effects

    This proposed rule is not a ``significant energy action'' under
Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use.

12. Technical Standards

    This proposed rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we
did not consider the use of voluntary consensus standards.

13. Environment

    We have analyzed this proposed rule under Department of Homeland
Security Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction
M16475.lD, which guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and
have made a preliminary determination that this action is one of a
category of actions that do not individually or cumulatively have a
significant effect on the human environment. This proposed rule is
categorically excluded, under figure 2-1, paragraph (34)(g), of the
Commandant Instruction because it involves the establishment of a
safety zone. A preliminary environmental analysis checklist supporting
this determination is available in the docket where indicated under
ADDRESSES.
    We seek any comments or information that may lead to the discovery
of a significant environmental impact from this proposed rule.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    The EASA, which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the
European Union, has issued EASA AD 2018-0228, dated October 22, 2018
(``EASA AD 2018-0228'') (also referred to as the Mandatory Continuing
Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe
condition for all Airbus SAS Model A330-201, -202, and -203; and Model
A330-301, -302, and -303 airplanes. The MCAI states:

    Occurrences were reported on A330 aeroplanes fitted with General
Electric CF6-80E1 engines, where the air inlet cowl inner barrel
lower panel, was found disbonded between the back skins and the
honeycomb core. The technical investigation results revealed that
this occurrence may have been caused by freezing of water,
accumulated in the non-drained honeycomb cells, damaging the
adhesive bond between the panel core and the back skin.
    This condition, if not corrected, in combination with an engine
surge condition, could lead to in-flight detachment of an air inlet
cowl inner barrel, possibly resulting in damage to the aeroplane,
and/or injury to persons on the ground.
    To address this potential unsafe condition, Airbus issued the
inspection SB [Airbus Service Bulletin A330-71-3035] to provide
instructions for [repetitive] detailed inspections (DET, tap test
inspection method) of the air inlet cowl inner barrel lower panels,
based on the Goodrich SB [Goodrich Aerospace Service Bulletin CF6-
80E1-NAC-71-048]. Airbus also developed mod [modification] 203989,
installation of improved inner barrel lower panels, based on
Goodrich Aerospace SB CF6-80E1-NAC-71-052, and published the
modification SB [Airbus SB A330-71-3036] as terminating action.
    For the reasons described above, this EASA AD requires
repetitive DET (tap tests) of the inner barrel lower panels of each
affected part on both engines and, depending on findings,
replacement with an improved inner barrel lower panel [which
terminates the repetitive inspections]. This [EASA] AD also allows,
in case of no findings, the modification SB [Airbus SB A330-71-3036
(replacement with an improved inner barrel lower panel) to be
accomplished] as optional terminating action for the repetitive
inspections.

Related IBR Material Under 1 CFR Part 51

    EASA AD 2018-0228 describes procedures for repetitive detailed
inspections of the engine air inlet cowls, and corrective actions.
Corrective actions include an inspection of the inlet anti-ice seal
installation, modification of affected parts, and replacement of
damaged inlet anti-ice seals. This material is reasonably available
because the interested parties have access to it through their normal
course of business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section
and it is publicly available through the EASA website.

FAA's Determination

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have
been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI referenced
above. We are issuing this AD because we evaluated all pertinent
information and determined the unsafe condition exists and is likely to
exist or develop on other products of the same type design.

Requirements of This AD

    This AD requires accomplishing the actions specified in EASA AD
2018-0228 described previously, as incorporated by reference, except
for any differences identified as exceptions in the regulatory text of
this AD.

Explanation of Required Compliance Information

    In the FAA's ongoing efforts to improve the efficiency of the AD
process, the FAA worked with Airbus and EASA to develop a process to
use certain EASA ADs as the primary source of information for
compliance with requirements for corresponding FAA ADs. As a result,
EASA AD 2018-0228 is incorporated by reference in the FAA final rule.
This AD, therefore, requires compliance with the provisions specified
in EASA AD 2018-0228, except for any differences identified as
exceptions in the regulatory text of this AD. Service information
specified in EASA AD 2018-0228 that is required for compliance with
EASA AD 2018-0228 is available on the internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for

and locating Docket No. FAA-2019-0191.

FAA's Justification and Determination of the Effective Date

    Since there are currently no domestic operators of this product,
notice and opportunity for public comment before issuing this AD are
unnecessary. In addition, for the reasons stated above, we find that
good cause exists for making this amendment effective in less than 30
days.

Comments Invited

    This AD is a final rule that involves requirements affecting flight
safety, and we did not precede it by notice and opportunity for public
comment. We invite you to send any written relevant data, views, or
arguments about this AD. Send your comments to an address listed under
the ADDRESSES section. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2019-0191; Product
Identifier 2018-NM-161-AD'' at the beginning of your comments. We
specifically invite comments on the overall regulatory, economic,
environmental, and energy aspects of this AD. We will consider all
comments received by the closing date and may amend this AD based on
those comments.
    We will post all comments we receive, without change, to http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. We
will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we
receive about this AD.

Costs of Compliance

    Currently, there are no affected U.S.-registered airplanes. If an
affected airplane is imported and placed on the U.S. Register in the
future, we provide the following cost estimates to comply with this AD:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII: Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: ``General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.
    This AD is issued in accordance with authority delegated by the
Executive Director, Aircraft Certification Service, as authorized by
FAA Order 8000.51C. In accordance with that order, issuance of ADs is
normally a function of the Compliance and Airworthiness Division, but
during this transition period, the Executive Director has delegated the
authority to issue ADs applicable to transport category airplanes and
associated appliances to the Director of the System Oversight Division.

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that this AD will not have federalism implications
under Executive Order 13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct
effect on the States, on the relationship between the national
government and the States, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
    1. Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order
12866;
    2. Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979);
    3. Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska; and
    4. Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: We propose to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2016-16-
01, which applies to certain Airbus SAS Model A330-200 Freighter, -200,
and -300 series airplanes. AD 2016-16-01 requires an inspection of
affected structural parts in the cargo and cabin compartments to
determine if proper heat treatment has been done, and replacement or
repair if necessary. Since we issued AD 2016-16-01, we have determined
that additional affected parts in the cabin compartment structure must
also be inspected. This proposed AD would retain the requirements of AD
2016-16-01 and require inspection of additional locations of the cabin
compartment structure. We are proposing this AD to address the unsafe
condition on these products.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by January 24,
2019.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:

Discussion

    We issued AD 2016-16-01, Amendment 39-18599 (81 FR 51325, August 4,
2016) (corrected September 1, 2016 (81 FR 60246)) (``AD 2016-16-01''),
for certain Airbus SAS Model A330-200 Freighter, -200, and -300 series
airplanes. AD 2016-16-01 requires an inspection of affected structural
parts in the cargo and cabin compartments to determine if proper heat
treatment has been done, and replacement or repair if necessary. AD
2016-16-01 was prompted by a report of a manufacturing defect that
affects the durability of affected parts in the cargo and cabin
compartment. We issued AD 2016-16-01 to address crack initiation and
propagation in structural parts of the cargo and cabin compartments,
which could result in reduced structural integrity of the fuselage.

Actions Since AD 2016-16-01 Was Issued

    Since we issued AD 2016-16-01, we have determined that additional
affected parts in the cabin compartment structure must also be
inspected.
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA AD
2018-0147, dated July 13, 2018 (referred to after this as the Mandatory
Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to correct an
unsafe condition for certain Model A330-200 Freighter, -200, and -300
series airplanes. The MCAI states:

    It was determined that several structural parts, intended for
cargo or cabin compartment installation, were manufactured from
improperly heat-treated materials. A subsequent review identified
that some of those parts were installed on aeroplanes manufactured
between November 2011 and February 2013. Consequently, Airbus
implemented measures into manufacturing processes to ensure
detection and to prevent further installation of such non-conforming
parts. A detailed safety assessment was accomplished to identify the
possible impact of these parts on the aeroplane structure. The
result of this structural analysis demonstrated the capability of
the affected structure to sustain static limit loads, but failed to
confirm that the affected structures meet the certified fatigue
life.
    This condition, if not detected and corrected, could lead to
crack initiation and propagation, possibly resulting in reduced
structural integrity of the fuselage.
    To address this unsafe condition, Airbus published the
applicable SBs [service bulletins] to provide inspection
instructions for affected structural cargo and cabin parts,
respectively. Consequently, EASA issued AD 2015-0212 [which
corresponds to FAA AD 2016-16-01] to require a one-time special
detailed inspection (SDI) [eddy current inspection] to measure the
electrical conductivity of affected parts, to identify the presence
or absence of heat treatment, and, depending on findings, applicable
corrective action(s) [replacement or repair].
    Since that AD was issued, Airbus identified that some additional
affected parts, located in the cabin compartment structure, have
been missed and need to be inspected. Consequently, Airbus issued SB
A330-53-3228 Revision 01 to introduce the locations of those missed
structural parts to be inspected.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD retains the
requirements of EASA AD 2015-0212, which is superseded, and expands
the number and locations of structural parts to be inspected.

    You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2018-
1005.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Airbus has issued Service Bulletin A330-53-3227, Revision 02, dated
July 25, 2018, which describes procedures for inspecting affected
structural parts in the cargo compartment to determine if proper heat
treatment has been done, and replacing discrepant parts.
    Airbus has also issued Service Bulletin A330-53-3228, Revision 01,
dated April 11, 2018, which describes procedures for inspecting
affected structural parts in the cabin compartment to determine if
proper heat treatment has been done, doing additional work (inspecting
additional locations of the cabin compartment structure), and doing
related investigative and corrective actions. Related investigative
actions include an eddy current inspection to verify the measurement
from the inspection to determine if proper heat treatment has been
done. Corrective actions include replacing discrepant parts.
    This service information is reasonably available because the
interested parties have access to it through their normal course of
business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section.

FAA's Determination

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have
been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service
information referenced above. We are proposing this AD because we
evaluated all the relevant information and determined the unsafe
condition described previously is likely to exist or develop on other
products of the same type design.

Proposed Requirements of This NPRM

    This proposed AD would retain all of the requirements of AD 2016-
16-01. This proposed AD would also require accomplishing the additional
work specified in Airbus Service Bulletin A330-53-3228, Revision 01,
dated April 11, 2018, described previously.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 20 airplanes of U.S.
registry. We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed
AD:

                                      Estimated Costs for Required Actions
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                Cost per      Cost on U.S.
              Actions                         Labor cost            Parts cost        product        operators

                                      hour = $935.
New proposed additional work.......  5 work-hours x $85 per hour               0             425           8,500
                                      = $425.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We estimate the following costs to do any necessary on-condition
action that would be required based on the results of any required
actions. We have no way of determining the number of aircraft that
might need this on-condition action:

                 Estimated Costs of On-Condition Action
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                             Cost per
              Labor cost                   Parts cost        product
------------------------------------------------------------------------
45 work-hours x $85 per hour = $3,825.            $0 *           $3,825
------------------------------------------------------------------------
* We have received no definitive data on the parts cost for the on-
  condition action.

    According to the manufacturer, some or all of the costs of this
proposed AD may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost
impact on affected individuals. We do not control warranty coverage for
affected individuals. As a result, we have included all known costs in
our cost estimate.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII: Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII,

issuance of ADs is normally a function of the Compliance and
Airworthiness Division, but during this transition period, the
Executive Director has delegated the authority to issue ADs applicable
to transport category airplanes and associated appliances to the

implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not
have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship
between the national Government and the States, or on the distribution

    1. Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order
12866,
    2. Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979),
    3. Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and

                                 ATTACHMENT D
                 Safer Choice Program: Audit Process Guidance

To ensure that partnership products are in compliance with the Safer Choice Standard, and especially that the ingredients in certified products are identical to those disclosed to Safer Choice, Safer Choice conducts regular partner audits. During the three-year partnership period, Safer Choice will conduct via a third-party auditor: an on-site audit, a desk audit, and, in the third year, a renewal audit as part of the renewal process. It is the responsibility of the partner to schedule audits with the third-party auditor. It is advised that partners enroll in the Safer Choice Community cloud-based Salesforce system, to receive automated reminders pertaining to compliance requirements.

                  Elements of Desk Audits and On-Site Audits
            (based on 2/2015 Edition of the Safer Choice Standard)

 Desk Audits
Safer Choice partners will submit to the third-party auditor specified materials. The desk audit will focus on the partner's print and electronic materials and verify the authorized formula through a review of production records.

   Elements of the desk audit include:

 Verification that qualifying products are being manufactured using approved ingredients. Authorized formulas will be compared to manufactured product through review of production records, batch tickets, bills of lading, certificates of analysis and any other documentation;
 Statement that the ingredients and all claims made regarding the Agency's recognition (e.g., use of the Safer Choice label) comport with the Partnership Agreement or a Safer Choice-approved amendment to the Agreement; of note, this statement must confirm that the ingredients in certified products are the same as those Safer Choice has reviewed and referenced in the Partnership Agreement;
 Product labels showing use of the Safer Choice label or mention of Safer Choice recognition;
 Product or company literature that uses the Safer Choice label or mention of Safer Choice recognition;
 Private label (including licensed product) labels and literature that bear the Safer Choice label;
 Summary of implementation activities for any continuous improvement efforts as required by the Partnership Agreement; and
 Documentation of education offered to end users of Industrial/Institutional (I/I) products.

 On-Site Audits
Safer Choice partners will allow the third-party auditor to visit their manufacturing facilities and conduct audits. The on-site audit will focus on the manufacturing process and the procedures in place to ensure that certified products comport with the Partnership Agreement. If a single facility produces a certified product, that facility will be subject to a site audit once per three-year partnership period. If multiple facilities produce a certified product, two sites will be selected for an audit once per three-year partnership period. Licensees and toll manufacturers are subject to the same rules as primary partners and their facilities will be considered separately from the facilities of the primary partner.

   Elements of the on-site audit include:

 Verification that qualifying products are being manufactured using accepted ingredients and suppliers and at appropriate use levels. Authorized formula will be compared to manufactured product through review of production records, batch tickets, bills of lading, certificates of analysis, and any other documentation necessary;
 Verification that any private label and licensed products packaged on-site are identical in formulation to the original certified product (i.e., no dilution, concentration, no added dyes or fragrances);
 Review of customer and/or employee complaint file;
 Review of Good Manufacturing Practices (i.e., manufacturing and packaging operations conducted within the scope of an effective quality system (e.g. ISO 9001) and in accordance with defined quality procedures appropriate for the manufacture of products).  For this component the audit may include:
 Production walk-through;
 Review of practices for minimizing contamination of the product during measuring, blending, packaging, and transport;
 Verification that bulk product containers, transfer equipment, and holding vessels for certified product are maintained in good repair;
 Review of records for cleaning, maintenance, and calibration of manufacturing equipment; and
 Review of supplier qualification records (including test data) for raw materials, packaging, and ingredients.

 Audit Follow-up and Potential Noncompliance
Upon completion of the audit, the third-party auditors will promptly notify Safer Choice of all noncompliance issues, highlighting any significant noncompliance, and will outline the steps partners need to take to address these issues (including an expedited review of any previously undisclosed product ingredients). Safer Choice will monitor for and, when necessary, manage significant noncompliance issues, such as:
 ingredient misuse, e.g., use of a non-reported or non-acceptable ingredient;
 label misuse or misrepresentation; and
 failure to undergo an audit.
