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 April
30, 2026 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.
Foreign Agricultural Service
Title: Sugar Imported for Exports as Refined Sugar, as a Sugar-
Containing Product, or Used in Production of Certain Polyhydric
Alcohols.
OMB Control Number: 0551-0015.
Summary of Collection: The regulation at 7 CFR part 1530 authorizes
the Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) to issue import licenses to
enter raw cane sugar exempt from the tariff-rate quota (TRQ) for the
raw cane sugar imports and related requirements on the condition that
an equivalent quantity of refined sugar be: (1) exported as refined
sugar; (2) exported as an ingredient in sugar containing products; or
(3) used in production of certain polyhydric alcohols. The information
requirements set forth in the regulation are necessary to enable FAS to
administer the licensing program in full compliance with the regulation
and to ensure that licensed imports do not enter the commercial sugar
market in circumvention of the TRQ for raw cane sugar.
Need and Use of the Information: FAS will collect information to
verify that the world-priced sugar is in fact exported and not diverted
onto the domestic market, thereby undermining the objectives of
politically sensitive U.S. sugar policies. This collection enables USDA
to monitor participants to ensure compliance with program parameters.
Without the collection, there would be an increased opportunity to
divert sugar onto the domestic market.
Description of Respondents: Business or other for-profit.
Number of Respondents: 301.
Frequency of Responses: Recordkeeping; Reporting; Quarterly.
Total Burden Hours: 309.
