Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 24 / Monday, February 7, 2005 / Notices
Summary of Collection: The Animal
and Plant Health Inspection Service
(APHIS) is charged with preventing the
introduction into, and dissemination
and establishment of plant pests in the
United States. The statutory
requirements for the information
collection activity are found in the Plant
Pest Act (PPA). The regulations in 7
CFR part 340 implement the provisions
of the PPA by providing the information
necessary to establish conditions for
proposed introductions of certain
genetically engineered organisms and
products which present a risk of plant
pest introduction. APHIS will collect
information using several APHIS forms.
Need and Use of the Information:
APHIS will collect the information
through a notification procedure or a
permit requirement to ensure that
certain genetically engineered
organisms, when imported, moved
interstate, or released into the
environment, will not present a risk of
plant pest introduction. The information
collected through the petition process is
used to determine whether a genetically
engineered organism will pose a risk to
agriculture or the environment if grown
in the absence of regulations by APHIS.
The information is also provided to
State departments of agriculture for
review, and made available to the public
and private sectors on the Internet to
ensure that all sectors are kept informed
concerning any potential risks posed
through the use of genetic engineering
technology.
Description of Respondents: Business
or other for profit; Not-for-profit
intstitutions; State, Local or Tribal
Government.
Number of Respondents: 97.
Frequency of Responses: Reporting:
On occasion.
Total Burden Hours: 2,676.
Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service
Title: Export Certification,
Accreditation of Non-Government
Facilities.
OMB Control Number: 0579–0130.
Summary of Collection: The
Department of Agriculture is
responsible for preventing plant
diseases or insect pests from entering
the United States, as well as the spread
of pests not widely distributed in the
United States, and eradicating those
imported when eradication is feasible.
The Plant Quarantine Act and the
Federal Pest Act authorize the
Department to carry out this mission.
The regulations in 7 CFR part 353 allow
non-government facilities (such as
commercial laboratories and private
inspection services) to be accredited by

the Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service (APHIS) to perform specific
laboratory testing or phytosanitary
inspections that could serve as the basis
for issuing Federal phytosanitary
certificates, phytosanitary certificates
for reexport, or export certificates for
processed plant products. APHIS
provides export certification services to
assure other countries that the plants
and plant products they are receiving
from the United States are free of plant
diseases and insect pests.
Need and Use of the Information:
APHIS will collect information for
applications submitted by operator/
owner of a non-government facility
seeking accreditation to conduct
laboratory testing or phytosanitary
inspection. The application should
contain the legal name and full address
of the facility, the name, address,
telephone and fax numbers of the
facility’s operator, a description of the
facility, and a description of the specific
laboratory testing or phytosanitary
inspection services for which the
facility is seeking accreditation. If the
activities are not conducted properly,
APHIS export certification program
would be compromised, causing a
disruption in plant and plant product
exports that could prove financially
damaging to U.S. exporters.
Description of Respondents: Business
or other for profit.
