SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title:
Importation of Unshu Oranges from the
Republic of Korea into Alaska.
OMB Number: 0579–0314.
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. As authorized
by the PPA, APHIS regulates the
importation of citrus fruit from certain
parts of the world as provided in
‘‘Subpart—Citrus Fruit’’ (7 CFR 319.28).
In accordance with these regulations,
unshu oranges from the Republic of
Korea may be imported into Alaska only
under certain conditions to prevent the
introduction of plant pests into the
United States. These conditions involve
the use of information collection
activities, including a phytosanitary
certificate with an additional
declaration statement and box labeling.
We are asking the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) to
approve our use of these information
collection activities 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

0.0056932 hours per response.
Respondents: Importers and the
national plant protection organization of
the Republic of Korea.
Estimated annual number of
respondents: 5.
Estimated annual number of
responses per respondent: 1,089.

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.
