Department of Agriculture (USDA),
Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service (APHIS), Veterinary Services

the import health requirements of other
countries for animals and animal
products exported from the United
States, as most countries require a

estimate of the burden of the
information collection, 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
information collection 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.

OMB Number: 0579-0230.
Type of Request: Revision and

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.
Part 94 allows the importation,
subject to certain conditions, of live
swine, pork, and pork products from
certain regions that are free of classical
swine fever (CSF) in Chile and Mexico
to prevent the introduction of CSF into
the United States. These conditions
involve information collection
activities, including certificates,
cooperative agreements, and cooperative
service agreements.
We are asking the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) to

will retire numbers 0579-0235 and
0579-0333.
The purpose of this notice is to solicit
