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

Temporary Marketing Permit Applications--21 CFR 130.17(c) and (i)

OMB Control Number 0910-0133--Extension

    This information collection request supports FDA regulations found 
in 21 CFR 130.17 (section 130.17). Section 401 of the Federal Food, 
Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 341) directs FDA to issue 
regulations establishing definitions and standards of identity (SOIs) 
for food. Under section 403(g) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 343(g)), a 
food that is subject to a definition and SOI prescribed by regulation 
is misbranded if it does not conform to such definition and SOI. 
Section 130.17 provides for the issuance by FDA of temporary marketing 
permits (TMPs) that enable the food industry to test consumer 
acceptance and measure the technological and commercial feasibility in 
interstate commerce of experimental packs of food that deviate from 
applicable definitions and SOIs. Section 130.17(c) enables the Agency 
to monitor the manufacture, labeling, and distribution of experimental 
packs of food that deviate from applicable definitions and SOIs. The 
information so obtained can be used in support of a petition to 
establish or amend the applicable definition or SOI to provide for the 
variations. Section 130.17(i) specifies the information that a firm 
must submit to FDA to obtain an extension of a TMP. To assist 
respondents with the TMP process, we have developed guidance entitled 
``Temporary Permits for Interstate Shipment of Experimental Packs of 
Food Varying from the Requirements of Definitions and Standards of 
Identity: Guidance for Industry'' (November 2021). This resource can be 
found on our website <a href="https://www.fda.gov/regulatory-information/search-fda-guidance-documents/guidance-industry-temporary-permits-interstate-shipment-experimental-packs-food-varying-requirements">https://www.fda.gov/regulatory-information/search-fda-guidance-documents/guidance-industry-temporary-permits-interstate-shipment-experimental-packs-food-varying-requirements</a>.
    Description of Respondents: Respondents to this collection of 
information include private sector businesses including institutional 
and/or industrial customers and food industry members such as 
manufacturers, packers, or distributors desiring to apply for a TMP or 
TMP extension.
    In the Federal Register of July 17, 2023 (88 FR 45431), FDA 
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed 
collection of information. No comments were received.
    We estimate the burden of this collection of information as 
follows:
