SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with section 3507 of the PRA
(44 U.S.C. 3507), FDA has submitted the following proposed collection
of information to OMB for review and clearance.

New Animal Drug Application (NADA), Form FDA 356 V, 21 CFR Part
514--(OMB Control Number 0910-0032--Reinstatement)

Under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act), FDA has
the responsibility for the approval of new animal drugs that are safe
and effective. Section 512(b) of the act (21 U.S.C. 360b(b)), requires
that a sponsor submit and receive approval of a NADA before interstate
marketing is allowed. The regulations implementing statutory
requirements for NADA approval have been codified under 21 CFR part
514. NADA applicants generally use a single form, FDA 356 V. The NADA
must contain, among other things, safety and effectiveness data for the
drug, labeling, a list of components, manufacturing and controls
information, and complete information on any methods used to determine
residues of drug chemicals in edible tissues. While the NADA is
pending, an amended application may be submitted for proposed changes.
After a NADA has been approved, a supplemental application must be
submitted for certain proposed changes, including changes beyond the
variations provided for in the NADA and other labeling changes. An
amended application and a supplemental application may omit statements
concerning which no change is proposed. This information is reviewed by
FDA scientific personnel to ensure that the intended use of an animal
drug, whether as a pharmaceutical dosage form, in drinking water, or in
medicated feed is safe and effective. The respondents are
pharmaceutical firms that produce veterinary products and commercial
feed mills.
FDA estimates the burden for this collection of information as
follows:
