SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3521), Federal
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, including
each proposed extension of an existing 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.

Medical Devices; Humanitarian Use Devices--21 CFR Part 814

OMB Control Number 0910-0332--Extension

    This collection of information implements the humanitarian use
devices (HUDs) provision of section 520(m) of the Federal Food, Drug,
and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 360j(m)) and part 814, subpart H
(21 CFR part 814, subpart H). Under section 520(m) of the FD&C Act, FDA
is authorized to exempt an HUD from the effectiveness requirements of
sections 514 and 515 of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 360d and 360e) provided
that the device: (1) Is designed to treat or diagnose a disease or
condition that affects no more than 8,000 individuals in the United
States; (2) would not be available to a person with a disease or
condition unless an exemption is granted and there is no comparable
device other than another HUD approved under this exemption that is
available to treat or diagnose such disease or condition; and (3) will
not expose patients to an unreasonable or significant risk of illness
or injury and the probable benefit to health from the use of the device
outweighs the risk of injury or illness from its use, taking into
account the probable risks and benefits of currently available devices
or alternative forms of treatment.
    Respondents may submit a humanitarian device exemption (HDE)
application seeking exemption from the effectiveness requirements of
sections 514 and 515 of the FD&C Act as authorized by section 520(m)(2)
of the FD&C Act. The information collected will assist FDA in making
determinations on the following: (1) Whether to grant HUD designation
of a medical device; (2) whether to exempt an HUD from the
effectiveness requirements under sections 514 and 515 of the FD&C Act,
provided that the device meets requirements set forth under section
520(m) of the FD&C Act; and (3) whether to grant marketing approval(s)
for the HUD. Failure to collect this information would prevent FDA from
making a determination on the factors listed previously in this
document. Further, the collected information would also enable FDA to
determine whether the holder of an HUD is in compliance with the HUD
provisions under section 520(m) of the FD&C Act.

    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as
follows:

    The number of respondents in tables 1, 2, and 3 are an average
based on data for the previous 3 years, i.e., fiscal years 2017 through
2019. The number of respondents has been adjusted to reflect updated
respondent data. This has resulted in an overall increase of 5,809
hours to the total estimated burden. The number of annual reports
submitted under Sec.  814.126(b)(1) in table 1 reflects 50 respondents
with approved HUD applications. Under Sec.  814.126(b)(2) in table 2,
the estimated number of recordkeepers is 65.
    We have also updated the burden estimate consistent with new
provisions in Sec.  814.104(b)(4)(i)) regarding ``Human Subject
Protection; Acceptance of Data from Clinical Investigations for Medical
Devices'' (83 FR 7366; February 21, 2018) (approved under OMB control
number 0910-0741). Section 814.104 is being amended to address
submission of data from clinical investigations in a Humanitarian
Device Exemption (HDE). To the extent the applicant includes data from
clinical investigations, the applicant will be required to include the
information and statements as described in Sec.  814.104(b)(4)(i).
Consistent with our estimate in OMB control number 0910-0741, this
revision increases our burden estimate for an HDE by 8 hours per
submission.

BILLING CODE 6717-01-P


1As discussed below in section 5 ( the discussion of the timing of submission of the RFP plan) the RFP plan would have to be submitted within 3 years after designation ( not 2 years as proposed). 8/ 126/ 05 RFP / areas already metwith approved 1 hr 15% VOC plans segment 1. Final rule for 8 hour areas comprised in total of one or more 1 hour nonattainment areas with approved 15 percent plans for the 1 hour standard. Those 8 hour areas that are composed entirely of one or more 1 hour areas that have approved 15 percent plans for their 1 hour ozone SIPs, will be considered to have met the 15 percent VOC requirement in section 182( b)( 1). Such areas that are classified as moderate would instead be subject to the more general RFP requirements of subpart 1. As discussed below, the subpart 1 requirement would depend on the moderate area's attainment date as follows: ° Moderate areas that have an attainment date within 5 years after their 8 hour designation, for which all portions of the area have previously met their 15 percent requirements under the 1 hour standard, will be subject to subpart 1 RFP requirements, which will be satisfied with measures that demonstrate attainment as expeditiously as practicable. ° Subpart 2Moderate areas that have an attainment date beyond 5 years after their 8 hour designation, for which all portions of the area have previously met their 15 percent requirements under the 1 hour standard, will be subject to subpart 1 RFP requirements, which will be satisfied with a plan to demonstrate 15 percent emission reductions ( which may be either VOC or NOx or a combination of both) from 2002 to 2008, and any additional emission reductions needed for attainment beyond 2008. Such areas that are classified as serious or above would be subject to the RFP requirements of section 182( c)( 2)( B) and would need to submit a plan achieving an average of 3 percent reductions per year over the 6 years following the baseline year and then an average of 3 percent per year for each subsequent 3 year period out to the attainment year. 1


                MCPA Case (030501, 030502, 030516 & 030564)
                     Screening Level Usage Analysis (SLUA)
                                Date: 12/20/17

What is a Screening Level Usage Analysis (SLUA)?
 Available estimates of pesticide usage data for a particular active ingredient/active equivalent that is used on agricultural crops in the United States.
 Pesticide usage data obtained from various sources.  The data are then merged, averaged, and rounded so that the presented information is not proprietary, business confidential, or trade secret.
What does it contain?
 Pesticide usage data for a single active ingredient/active equivalent only.
 Agricultural use sites (crops) that the pesticide is reported to be used on.
 Available pesticide usage information from states that produce 80% of crop acres planted in the United States, in most cases, or less than 80%, in rare cases, depending on the scope of the survey and available resources.
 Annual percent of crop treated (average & maximum) for each agricultural crop.
 Average annual pounds of the pesticide applied for each agricultural crop (i.e., for the states surveyed, not for the entire United States).
What assumptions can I make about the reported data?
 Average pounds of active ingredient/active equivalent applied - Values are calculated by merging pesticide usage data sources together; averaging across all observations, then rounding.  Note:  If the estimated value is less than 500, then that value is labeled <500.  Estimated values between 500 & <1,000,000 are rounded to 1 significant digit.  Estimated values of 1,000,000 or greater are rounded to 2 significant digits.)
 Average percent of crop treated - Values are calculated by merging data sources together; averaging by year, averaging across all years, & rounding to the nearest multiple of 5.  Note:  If the estimated value is less than 2.5, then the value is labeled <2.5.  If the estimated value is less than 1, then the value is labeled <1.
 Maximum percent of crop treated - Value is the single maximum value reported across all data sources, across all years, & rounded up to the nearest multiple of 5.  Note:  If the estimated value is less than 2.5, then the value is labeled <2.5.
What are the data sources used?
 United States Department of Agriculture's National Agricultural Statistics Service (USDA-NASS)  -  pesticide usage data from 2005 to 2015.  NASS data are based on surveys that focus on the top-producing states that together account for the majority of U.S. acres or production of the surveyed commodity.  NASS aims to cover at a minimum 80 percent of the targeted fruit, vegetable, and field crop acres planted in the United States. Farm level data are combined during summary and, pending compliance with disclosure rules, published at the state and national levels.  NASS collects agricultural usage data for various crops on a rotating schedule.
 Market Research data (MRD)  -  pesticide usage data from 2005 to 2015.  This is data from surveys which cover pesticide usage on agricultural crops.  The survey data accounts for at least 80 percent of US acres/production of the surveyed commodities.  Surveys are conducted annually.
 California Department of Pesticide Regulation (DPR) Pesticide Use Reporting (PUR) data for 2005 to 2015. The PUR database contains detailed records and summaries of agricultural applications of pesticides on crops that are obtained from a census and published annually.

What are the limitations to the data?
 Additional registered uses may exist but are not included because the available surveys do not report usage (e.g., small acreage crops).
 Lack of reported usage data for the pesticide on a crop does not imply zero usage.
 Usage data on a particular site may be noted in data sources, but not quantified.  In these instances, the site would not be reported in the SLUA.
 Non-agricultural use sites (e.g., turf, post-harvest, mosquito control, etc.) are not reported in the SLUA.  A separate request must be made to receive these estimates.
 Some sites show some use, even though they are not on the label.  This usage could be due to various factors, including, but not limited to Section 18 requests, existing stocks of the chemical, data collection errors, and experimental use permits (EUPs).
