Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 185 / Monday, September 24, 2012 / Notices and loss-of-productivity costs. It does not include pain and suffering costs. The Agency’s analysis suggests that the new sampling will reduce the number of illnesses by an average of 90 cases per year (with a range of 3 to 134).12 This number does not include the reduced illnesses from reduced cross-contamination at retail, so the number could be higher. Multiplying the average number of reduced illnesses by the average cost per case results in reduced illness benefits of about $117 million annually. The Agency also expects that with the increased sampling, the establishments will strengthen their own L. monocytogenes control measures, which will further reduce the number of illnesses. However, FSIS cannot quantify this impact with any precision. Net Benefits As explained in the Expected Costs and Expected Benefits Sections, there are uncertainties in the Agency’s cost and benefit estimates. Consequently, it is very difficult to arrive at a concrete estimate of net benefits. The biggest uncertainty is that FSIS cannot accurately predict the amount of adulterated product that will be detected as a result of increasing the sampling numbers. The Agency can only estimate the amount with some strong assumptions. The Agency believes that it can have a reasonable net benefit estimate by adding the estimated benefits from reduced illnesses ($117 million), then subtracting the cost to the industry ($58.6 million). The result is a net benefit of about $58.33 million annually. The changes in FSIS’s sampling procedures do not impose a testing requirement on official establishments. Therefore, these changes will not have a negative effect on small or very small establishments.13 USDA Nondiscrimination Statement TKELLEY on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) prohibits discrimination in all its programs and activities on the basis of race, color, national origin, gender, religion, age, disability, political beliefs, sexual orientation, and marital or family status.
