<![CDATA[
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 68 / Friday, April 10, 2009 / Notices
listed in § 301.86–2 from an infested
field within the last 10 years; or, within
the last 10 years, the field shared
ownership, tenancy, seed, drainage or
runoff, farm machinery, or other
elements of shared cultural practices
with an infested field that could allow
spread of the PCN, as determined by the
Administrator.
Paragraph (b) describes the conditions
for the designation of an area less than
an entire State as a quarantined area.
Less than an entire State will be
designated as a quarantined area only if
the Administrator determines that:
• The State has adopted and is
enforcing restrictions on the intrastate
movement of the regulated articles that
are equivalent to those imposed by the
regulations on the interstate movement
of regulated articles; and
• The designation of less than the
entire State as a quarantined area will
prevent the interstate spread of PCN.
We have determined that it is not
necessary to designate the entire State of
Idaho as a quarantined area. Idaho has
adopted and is enforcing restrictions on
the intrastate movement of regulated
articles from that area that are
equivalent to those we are imposing on
the interstate movement of regulated
articles.
Paragraph (d) provides for the
removal of fields from quarantine. An
infested field will be removed from
quarantine when a 3-year biosurvey
protocol approved by APHIS has been
completed and the field has been found
to be free of PCN. An associated field
will be removed from quarantine when
the field has been found to be free of
PCN according to a survey protocol
approved by the Administrator as
sufficient to support removal from
quarantine. Any area other than infested
or associated fields which has been
quarantined by the Administrator
because of its inseparability for
quarantine enforcement purposes from
infested or associated fields will be
removed from quarantine when the
relevant infested or associated fields are
removed from quarantine.
Paragraph (a) of § 301.86–3 further
provides that the Administrator will
publish the description of the
quarantined area on the Plant Protection
and Quarantine (PPQ) Web site, https://
www.aphis.usda.gov/plant_health/
plant_pest_info/potato/pcn.shtml. The
description of the quarantined area will
include the date the description was last
updated and a description of the
changes that have been made to the
quarantined area. The description of the
quarantined area may also be obtained
by request from any local office of PPQ;
local offices are listed in telephone

directories. Finally, paragraph (a)
establishes that, after a change is made
to the quarantined area, we will publish
a notice in the Federal Register
informing the public that the change has
occurred and describing the change to
the quarantined area.
We are publishing this notice to
inform the public of changes to the PCN
quarantined area in accordance with
§ 301.86–3(a). On December 9, 2008, we
updated the quarantined area to remove
20 fields (1,183 acres in total) from the
quarantined area. On January 14, 2009,
we updated the quarantined area to
remove an additional 17 fields (2,146
acres in total) from the quarantined area.
These actions removed a total of 3,329
acres from quarantine.
The fields were removed from
quarantine as associated fields after
being found to be free of PCN according
to a survey protocol approved by the
Administrator as sufficient to support
removal from quarantine, under
paragraph (d)(2) of § 301.86–3. The
fields removed from quarantine were in
Bingham, Bonneville, and Jefferson
Counties.
The current map of the quarantined
area can be viewed on the PPQ Web site

Needs and Uses: This collection is
required by section 748.11 of the Export
Administration Regulations (EAR). In
order to effectively control
commodities, BIS must have sufficient
information regarding the end-use and
end-user of the U.S. origin commodities
to be exported. The use of Form BIS–
711 or letter puts the importer on notice
of the special nature of the goods
proposed for export and conveys a
commitment against illegal disposition.
The information will assist the licensing
officer in making the proper decision on
whether to approve or reject the
application for the license.
Affected Public: Businesses and other
for-profit organizations.
Frequency: On occasion.
Respondent’s Obligation: Required to

Needs and Uses: The twenty-nine
members of the Organization of
American States (OAS), including the
United States, signed the InterAmerican Convention Against the Illicit
Manufacturing of and Trafficking in
Firearms Ammunition, Explosives, and
Other Related Materials (Firearms
Convention) in 1997. The existing body
of federal laws in the United States,
including the Export Administration
Act of 1979 (EAA), is adequate to satisfy
the Convention’s provisions regarding
requirements for legislation.
This collection is required by Sections
742.17 and 748.14 of the Export
Administration Regulations (EAR),
which are authorized by Section 15(b) of
the EAA. There are currently two
information collection requirements
necessary to implement the Firearms
Convention: (1) U.S. exporters to
acquire an Import Certificate to support
requests for licenses authorizing the
export of firearms and related
equipment to participating OAS
countries; and (2) a licensing
requirement for Firearms Convention
items destined to Canada, a Convention
Signatory. A license was not previously
required for the export of such items to
Canada. It is now necessary for
exporters to Canada to obtain a license.
Affected Public: Businesses and other
for-profit organizations.
Frequency: On occasion.
Respondent’s Obligation: Required to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The Census Bureau plans to continue
the current OMB clearance for the
Survey of Plant Capacity Utilization
(SPC). The SPC is conducted quarterly,
collecting from manufacturing plants
and publishers, the value of actual
production and the value of production
that could have been achieved if
operating at ‘‘full production’’ levels.
The survey also collects data on work
patterns by shift. These data include
hours in operation, production workers,
and plant hours worked.
The primary user of these data will be
the Federal Reserve Board (FRB) and
