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 May 23,
2022 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.
Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service
Title: Importation of Swine Hides, Bird Trophies, and Deer Hides.
OMB Control Number: 0579-0307.
Summary of Collection: The Animal Health Protection Act (AHPA) of
2002 is the primary Federal law governing the protection of animal
health. The law gives the Secretary of Agriculture broad authority to
detect, control, or eradicate pests or diseases of livestock or
poultry. The AHPA is contained in Title X, Subtitle E, Sections 10401-
18 of Public Law 107-171, May 13, 2002, the Farm Security and Rural
Investment Act of 2002. The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service
(APHIS) protects the health of the U.S. livestock and poultry
population. The regulations in 9 CFR parts 94 and 95 (referred to below
as the regulations) prohibit or restrict the importation of specified
animal products into the United States to prevent the introduction into
the U.S. livestock population of certain contagious animal diseases.
Sections 95.16 and 95.17 of the regulations contain, among other
things, specific processing and certification requirements for untanned
hides and skins and bird trophies.
Need and Use of the Information: APHIS will collect information
from forms VS 16-28, VS 16-29 and VS 16-78, certificates, and written
statements, to ensure that bird trophies and certain animal hides pose
a negligible risk of introducing certain contagious, infectious, or
communicable animal diseases into the United States. If this
information is not collected, it would significantly hinder APHIS's
ability to ensure that these commodities pose a minimal risk of
introducing foreign animal diseases into the United States.
Description of Respondents: Foreign Government; Business or other
for-profit.
Number of Respondents: 167.
Frequency of Responses: Reporting; On occasion.
Total Burden Hours: 471.
Ruth Brown,
Departmental Information Collection Clearance Officer.
