DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request
August 3, 2021.
The Department of Agriculture has submitted the following
information collection requirement(s) to OMB for review and clearance
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104-13. Comments
are requested regarding whether the collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility; the
accuracy of the agency's estimate of burden including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used; ways to enhance the quality,
utility and clarity of the information to be collected; and ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are
to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Comments regarding this information collection received by
September 8, 2021 will be considered. Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed information collection should be
submitted within 30 days of the publication of this notice on the
following website <a href="http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain">www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain</a>. Find this
particular information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day
Review--Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function.
An agency may not conduct or sponsor a collection of information
unless the collection of information displays a currently valid OMB
control number and the agency informs potential persons who are to
respond to the collection of information that such persons are not
required to respond to the collection of information unless it displays
a currently valid OMB control number.
Food Safety and Inspection Service
Title: Public Health Inspection System.
OMB Control Number: 0583-0153.
Summary of Collection: The Food Safety and Inspection Service
(FSIS) has been delegated the authority to exercise the functions of
the Secretary as provided in the Federal Meat Inspection Act (FMIA) (21
U.S.C. 601 et. seq.), the Poultry Products Inspection Act (PPIA) (21
U.S.C. 451, et. seq.), and the Egg Products Inspection Act (EPIA) (21
U.S.C. 1031). These statues mandate that FSIS protect the public by
ensuring that meat, poultry, and egg products are safe, wholesome,
unadulterated, and properly labeled and packaged.
Need and Use of the Information: FSIS uses a Web-based system that
supports FSIS inspection operations and facilitates industry members'
application for inspection, export, and import of meat, poultry, and
egg products. Industry members use FSIS forms in the Public Health
Information System (PHIS). Industry can submit some of these forms
through a series of screens in PHIS; other forms are available in PHIS
only as electronic forms. Paper forms will also be available to firms
that do not wish to use PHIS. To submit information through PHIS,
firms' employees will need to register for a USDA eAuthentication
account with Level 2 access. To not collect the information would
inhibit ability of FSIS to ensure that meat, poultry, and egg products
are wholesome, unadulterated, and properly labeled and packaged.
Description of Respondents: Business or other for-profit.
Number of Respondents: 6,294.
Frequency of Responses: Reporting: On occasion.
Total Burden Hours: 115,550.

Departmental Information Collection Clearance Officer.
