Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed Collection; Comment Request; the Evaluation of Long-Term Antibiotic Drug Therapy for Persons Involved in Anthrax Remediation Activities

The Food and Drug Adminsitration (FDA) is announcing an opportunity for public comment on the proposed collection of certain information by the agency. Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), Federal agencies are required to publish notice in the Federal Register concerning each proposed collection of information, including each proposed extension of an existing collection of information, and to allow 60 days for public comment in response to the notice. This notice solicits comments on the information collection requirements relating to the evaluation of long-term antibiotic drug therapy for persons involved in anthrax remediation activities. In the Federal Register of October 8, 2002 (67 FR 62727), FDA published a notice announcing the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB's) approval of this collection of information (OMB control number 0910-0494). Because this was an emergency approval that will expire on March 31, 2003, FDA in this notice is following the normal PRA clearance procedures by issuing this notice.
