SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title: Permit for Movement of Restricted Animals. OMB Number: 0579–0051. Type of Request: Extension of approval of an information collection. Abstract: The United States Department of Agriculture is responsible for, among other things, preventing the interstate spread of livestock diseases and pests and for eradicating such diseases and pests from the United States when feasible. In connection with this mission, Veterinary Services (VS), Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, prohibits or restricts the interstate movement of livestock that have, or have been exposed to, certain diseases. When such livestock are allowed to be moved interstate, the animals must normally be moved to slaughter and be accompanied by a ‘‘Permit for Movement of Restricted Animals,’’ also known as VS Form 1–27. Use of this form, which is completed by specified personnel at the points of origin and destination, provides documentation that the animals were not diverted from their destination, which could result in the spread of disease. We are asking the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to approve our use of this information collection activity for an additional 3 years. The purpose of this notice is to solicit comments from the public (as well as PO 00000 Frm 00002 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 affected agencies) concerning our information collection. These comments will help us: (1) Evaluate 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; (2) Evaluate the accuracy of our estimate of the burden of the information collection, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (3) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) Minimize the burden of the information collection on those who are to respond, through use, as appropriate, of automated, electronic, mechanical, and other collection technologies, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. Estimate of burden: The public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 0.083 hours per response. Respondents: State field personnel, accredited veterinarians, meat inspectors, animal health technicians, and others, including owners of cattle, swine, horses, sheep, and goats. Estimated annual number of respondents: 4,000. Estimated annual number of responses per respondent: 3. Estimated annual number of responses: 12,000. Estimated total annual burden on respondents: 996 hours. (Due to averaging, the total annual burden hours may not equal the product of the annual number of responses multiplied by the reporting burden per response.) All responses to this notice will be summarized and included in the request for OMB approval. All comments will also become a matter of public record.
