OMB Number: 0579–0313.
Type of Request: Extension of
approval of an information collection.
Abstract: Under the Animal Health
Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 8301 et seq.),
the Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service (APHIS) of the United States
Department of Agriculture is authorized,
among other things, to prohibit or
restrict the importation and interstate
movement of animals and animal
products to prevent the introduction
into and dissemination within the
United States of livestock diseases and
pests. To carry out this mission, APHIS
regulates the importation of animals and
animal products into the United States.
The regulations are contained in title 9,
parts 92 through 98, of the Code of
Federal Regulations.
The regulations in 9 CFR part 93
require, among other things, that certain
animals, as a condition of entry, be
quarantined upon arrival in the United
States. APHIS operates animal
quarantine facilities and also authorizes
the use of quarantine facilities that are
privately owned and operated for
certain animal importations.
The regulations in subpart C of part
93 pertain to the importation of horses
and include requirements for privately
owned quarantine facilities for horses.
These requirements entail certain
information collection activities,
including environmental certification,
application for facility approval, service
agreements, requests to APHIS
concerning withdrawal of approval,
notification to APHIS of facility closure,
compliance agreements, security
procedures, alarm notification, lists of
personnel, signed statements, daily logs,
and requests for variance.
