Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 58 / Monday, March 27, 2006 / Notices
certifies private veterinary practitioners
to work cooperatively with Federal
veterinarians, as well as with State
animal health officials, to conduct
certain activities for APHIS. Regulations
governing the Veterinary Accreditation
Program are found in Title 9 of the Code
of Federal Regulations, parts 160, 161,
and 162. Operating this important
program requires APHIS to engage in a
number of information collection
activities in the form of applications for
veterinary accreditation, veterinary
accreditation orientation and training,
paperwork associated with tasks
performed by our accredited
veterinarians (such as completing
certificates, applying and removing
official seals, and completing test
reports); reviewing applications for
veterinary accreditation and reaccreditation, recordkeeping, and
updating information on accredited
veterinarians. APHIS will collect
information using several forms.
Need and Use of the Information:
APHIS will collect information to
determine that a veterinarian has met
the requirements for being accredited, or
for obtaining re-accreditation. APHIS
will also collect information to ensure
that accredited veterinarians are
knowledgeable of current Federal and
State animal health regulations,
objectives and programs and are
competent in their application. If
information is not collected it would
significantly destroy APHIS’ ability to
operate the Veterinary Accreditation
Program.
Description of Respondents: Business
or other for-profit; State, Local or Tribal
Government.
Number of Respondents: 88,244.
Frequency of Responses:
Recordkeeping; Reporting: On occasion.
Total Burden Hours: 63,031.
