Agricultural Marketing Service
Title: Regulations Governing the
Inspection and Grading of Manufactured
or Processed Dairy Products—
Recordkeeping.
OMB Control Number: 0581–0110.
Summary of Collection: The
Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946
directs the Department to develop
programs that will provide and enable
the marketing of agricultural products.
One of these programs is the USDA
voluntary inspection and grading
program for dairy products where these
dairy products are graded according to
U.S. grade standards by an USDA
grader. The dairy products so graded
may be identified with the USDA grade
mark. Dairy processors, buyers, retailers,
institutional users, and consumers have
requested that such a program be
developed to assure the uniform quality
of dairy products purchased. In order
for any service program to perform
satisfactorily, there must be written
guides and rules, which in this case are
regulations for the provider and user.
Need and Use of the Information: The
Agricultural Marketing Service will
collect information to ensure that the
dairy inspection program products are
produced under sanitary conditions and
buyers are purchasing a quality product.
The information collected through
recordkeeping are routinely reviewed
and evaluated during the inspection of
the dairy plant facilities for USDA
approval. Without laboratory testing
results required by recordkeeping, the
inspectors would not be able to evaluate
the quality of dairy products.
Description of Respondents: Business
or other for-profit.
Number of Respondents: 487.
Frequency of Responses:
Recordkeeping.
Total Burden Hours: 1,388.
Agricultural Marketing Service
Title: Regulations for Inspection of
Eggs.
OMB Control Number: 0581–0113.
Summary of Collection: Congress
enacted the Egg Products Inspection Act
(21 U.S.C. 1031–1056) (EPIA) to provide

a mandatory inspection program to
assure egg products are processed under
sanitary conditions, are wholesome,
unadulterated, and properly labeled; to
control the disposition of dirty and
checked shell eggs; to control
unwholesome, adulterated, and inedible
egg products and shell eggs that are
unfit for human consumption; and to
control the movement and disposition
of imported shell eggs and egg products
that are unwholesome and inedible.
Regulations developed under 7 CFR part
57 provide the requirements and
guidelines for the Department and
industry needed to obtain compliance.
The Agricultural Marketing Service
(AMS) will collect information using
several forms. Forms used to collect
information provide method for
measuring workload, record of
compliance and non compliance and a
basis to monitor the utilization of funds.
Need and Use of the Information:
AMS will use the information to assure
compliance with the Act and
regulations, to take administrative and
regulatory action and to develop and
revise cooperative agreements with the
States, which conduct surveillance
inspections of shell egg handlers and
processors. If the information is not
collected, AMS would not be able to
control the processing, movement, and
disposition of restricted shell eggs and
egg products and take regulatory action
in case of noncompliance.

Type of Request: Regular submission
(extension of a current information
collection).
Number of Respondents: 10,000.
Average Hours per Response: 2

Needs and Uses: The Cooperative
Game Fish Tagging Program was
initiated in 1971 as part of a
comprehensive research program
resulting from passage of Public Law
86–359, Study of Migratory Game Fish,
and other legislative acts under which
the National Marine Fisheries Service
(NMFS) operates. The Cooperative
Tagging Center attempts to determine
the migration patterns of, and other
biological information for, billfish,
tunas, and swordfish. The fish tagging
report is provided to the angler with the
tags, and he/she fills out the card with
the information when a fish is tagged
and mails it to NMFS. Information on
each species is used by NMFS to
determine migratory patterns, distance
traveled, stock boundaries, age, and
growth. These data are necessary input
for developing management criteria by
regional fishery management councils,
states, and NMFS.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households.
Frequency: On occasion.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.
