SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Specialty Sugar Import
Certificates.
OMB Number: 0551–0025.
Expiration Date of Approval: March
31, 2008.
Type of Request: Extension of a
currently approved information
collection.
Abstract: The quota system
established by Presidential
Proclamation 4941 of May 5, 1982
prevented the importation of certain
sugars used for specialized purposes
which originated in countries which did
not have quota allocations. Therefore,
the regulation at 15 CFR part 2011
(Allocation of Tariff-Rate Quota on
Imported Sugars, Syrups, and Molasses,
Subpart B—Specialty Sugar) established
terms and conditions under which
certificates are issued permitting U.S.
importers holding certificates to enter
specialty sugars from specialty sugar
source countries at the in-quota tariff
rates under the sugar tariff-rate quota
(TRQ). Nothing in this subpart affects
the ability to enter specialty sugars at
the over-quota tariff rate. Applicants for
certificates for the import of specialty
sugars must supply the information
required by 15 CFR 2011.205 to be
eligible to receive a specialty sugar
certificate. The specific information
required on an application must be
collected from those who wish to
participate in the program in order to
grant specialty sugar certificates, ensure
that imported specialty sugar does not
disrupt the current domestic sugar
program, and administer the issuance of
the certificates effectively.
Estimate of Burden: Public reporting
burden for this collection of information
is estimated to average 2 hours per
response.
Respondents: Importers.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
30.
Estimated Number of Responses per
Respondent: 1.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 60 hours.
Copies of this information collection
can be obtained from Tamoria
Thompson-Hall, the Agency Information
Collection Coordinator, at (202) 690–
1690.
Request for Comments: The public is
invited to submit comments and
suggestions to the above address
regarding the accuracy of the burden
estimate, ways to minimize the burden,
including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, or any other
