DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    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 January 
21, 2025 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: Petitions for Rulemaking.
    OMB Control Number: 0583-0136.
    Summary of Collection: The Food Safety and Inspection Service 
(FSIS) has been delegated the authority to exercise the functions of 
the Secretary as

[[Page 104075]]

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 Product Inspection Act (EPIA) (21 U.S.C. 1031 et 
seq.). These statutes mandate that FSIS protect the public by ensuring 
that meat and poultry products are safe, wholesome, unadulterated, and 
properly labeled and packaged. The Administrative Procedures Act 
requires that Federal agencies give interested persons the right to 
petition for issuance, amendment, or repeal of a rule (5 U.S.C. 553 
(e)). FSIS has regulations (9 CFR 392) governing petitions to the 
Agency to issue, amend, or repeal its regulations.
    Need and Use of the Information: FSIS will use the information 
associated with petitions to assess the merits of the petition and to 
determine whether to issue, amend, or repeal its regulations. If the 
information is not collected or collected less frequently, it would 
reduce the effectiveness of the meat, poultry, and egg products 
inspection program.
    Description of Respondents: Business or other for-profit.
    Number of Respondents: 10.
    Frequency of Responses: Reporting: On occasion.
    Total Burden Hours: 400.
