Abstract:
This information collection--the submission to FDA of warning plans for smokeless tobacco products--is statutorily mandated. The Smokeless Tobacco Act requires that the warnings be displayed on packaging and advertising for each brand of smokeless tobacco "in accordance with a plan submitted by the tobacco product manufacturer, importer, distributor, or retailer" to, and approved by, FDA. The warning plans will be reviewed by FDA, to determine whether the companies' plans for the equal distribution and display of warning statements on packaging and the quarterly rotation of warning statements in advertising for each brand requires, among other things, that all smokeless tobacco product packages and advertisements bear one of four required warning statements. The Act does not specify the means for submission of warning plans. There are three ways to submit warning plans: electronic format submitted via the FDA Electronic Submission Gateway; electronic format submitted on physical media (e.g., CD or DVD); or paper format.

Short Statement:
This is a request for an extension with an adjustment in burden due to new estimates. The number of respondents is expected to increase from 20 to 100 and the number of burden hours is expected to increase from 2,000 to 6,000 hours due to FDA's estimates that new smokeless tobacco companies will submit warning plans under this collection of information. The total increase in burden is 4,000 hours, due to an expected increase in industry education and more importers and retailers realizing that they will need to submit warning plans.
Annual Cost to Federal Government:
