Food Labeling; Gluten-Free Labeling of Fermented or Hydrolyzed 
Foods; Reopening of the Comment Period

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Proposed rule; reopening of the comment period.

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

SUMMARY: In the Federal Register of November 18, 2015 (80 FR 71990), 
the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) published a proposed rule 
entitled, ``Food Labeling; Gluten-Free Labeling of Fermented or 
Hydrolyzed Foods.'' Due to an inadvertent error, the publication 
contained conflicting dates for submission of comments under the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This notice corrects that error.

DATES: Submit either electronic or written comments on information 
collection issues under the PRA by February 22, 2016.

ADDRESSES: Submit comments on information collection issues to the 
Office of Management and Budget in the following ways:
     Fax to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, 
OMB, Attn: FDA Desk Officer, FAX: 202-395-7285, or email to 
[email protected]. All comments should be identified with the 
title ``Recordkeeping Requirements for Gluten-Free Labeling of 
Fermented or Hydrolyzed Foods.''

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: FDA PRA Staff, Office of Operations, 
Food and Drug Administration, 8455 Colesville Rd., COLE-14526, Silver 
Spring, MD 20993-0002, [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 18, 2015 (80 FR 71990), the Food 
and Drug Administration (FDA) published a proposed rule entitled, 
``Food Labeling; Gluten-Free Labeling of Fermented or Hydrolyzed 
Foods.'' In the DATES section of the proposed rule, we provided a 30-
day period for submitting comments with respect to the information 
collection issues under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA). 
However, in the PRA discussion for the proposed rule, an error was made 
that provided 60 days for PRA comments. To address this error, we have 
reopened the comment period for the information collection provisions 
of the proposed rule. Accordingly, comments regarding information 
collection issues may be received until February 22, 2016. The comment 
period for all other aspects of the proposed rule remains unchanged 
where comments may be submitted until February 16, 2016.

    Dated: January 15, 2016.
Leslie Kux,
Associate Commissioner for Policy.
