SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Importation of Shelled Garden

OMB Number: 0579–0302.
Type of Request: Extension of
approval of an information collection.
Abstract: The Plant Protection Act
(PPA, 7 U.S.C. 7701 et seq.) authorizes
the Secretary of Agriculture to restrict
the importation, entry, or interstate
movement of plants, plant products, and
other articles to prevent the
introduction of plant pests into the
United States or their dissemination
within the United States. Regulations
authorized by the PPA concerning the
importation of fruits and vegetables into
the United States from certain parts of
the world are contained in ‘‘Subpart—
Fruits and Vegetables’’ (7 CFR 319.56–
1 through 319.56–48).
Under these regulations, shelled
garden peas from Kenya may be

imported into the United States only
under certain conditions to prevent the
introduction of plant pests into the
United States. The regulations in
§ 319.56–45 require that shipments of
peas be accompanied by a phytosanitary
certificate issued by the national plant
protection organization of Kenya with
an additional declaration stating that the
peas have been shelled and washed in
accordance with § 319.56–45 and have
been inspected and found free of pests.
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
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 0.15
hours per response.
Respondents: Importers and Kenyan
national plant protection organizations
and producers.
Estimated Annual Number of
Respondents: 2.
Estimated Annual Number of
Responses per Respondent: 20.
Estimated Annual Number of
Responses: 40.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 6 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.
