Evaluation Survey; Nongovernmental
Organizations Interested in Animal
Welfare.
OMB Number: 0579–XXXX.
Type of Request: Approval of a new
information collection.
Abstract: The Animal and Plant
Health Inspection Service, Animal Care
program, conducts activities to
administer and enforce the Animal
Welfare Act and the Horse Protection
Act and regulations issued under those
Acts.
Animal Care plans to survey
nongovernmental organizations

the humane treatment of animals), as

Other organizations may be included as
potential respondents by contacting Mr.
J. Michael Tuck as indicated under FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
Animal Care will use the information
from the survey to plan improvements
to the Animal Care program.
We are asking OMB to approve our
use of this information collection
activity for 3 years. The purpose of this
notice is to solicit comments from the
public (as well as 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 collection
of information, 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
collection of information 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 0.16
hours per response.
Respondents: Established
nongovernmental organizations
interested in animal welfare.
Estimated annual number of
respondents: 500.
Estimated annual number of
responses per respondent: 1.
Estimated annual number of
responses: 500.
Estimated total annual burden on
respondents: 80 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.
Done in Washington, DC, this 12th day of
February 2007.
