SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title: Irradiation Phytosanitary Treatment of Imported Fruits and Vegetables. OMB Number: 0579–0155. Type of Request: Extension of approval of an information collection. Abstract: Under the Plant Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 7701 et seq.), the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service of the United States Department of Agriculture is authorized, among other things, to regulate the importation of plants, plant products, including fruits and vegetables, and other articles to prevent the introduction of plant pests and noxious weeds into the United States. Regulations governing the importation of fruits and vegetables are set out in 7 CFR part 319. In accordance with the regulations, some fruits and vegetables from certain regions of the world must be treated for insect pests in order to be eligible for entry into the United States. The regulations in 7 CFR part 305 provide for the use of irradiation as a phytosanitary treatment for fruits and vegetables imported into the United States. The irradiation treatment provides protection against all insect pests including fruit flies, the mango seed weevil, and others. It may be used as an alternative to other approved VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:08 Oct 30, 2012 Jkt 229001 treatments for these pests in fruits and vegetables, such as fumigation, cold treatment, heat treatment, and other techniques. The regulations concerning irradiation treatment involve the collection of information, including a compliance agreement, 24-hour notification, labeling, dosimetry recordings, requests for dosimetry device approval, requests for facility approval, trust fund agreement, and annual work plan, as well as recordkeeping. 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 information is estimated to average 0.008 hours per response. Respondents: Foreign plant protection services, irradiation facility personnel, importers. Estimated annual number of respondents: 105. Estimated annual number of responses per respondent: 384.8. Estimated annual number of responses: 40,404. Estimated total annual burden on respondents: 332 hours. (Due to 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.

The notification conforming to the requirements of the regulations of the Board (15 CFR 400.22) was received on October 10, 2012. Revlon’s Oxford facility was granted subzone authority in 2006 (Board Order 1433, 71 FR 4112, 1/26/06) for the production of certain cosmetics and personal care products (hair products, fragrances, and skincare products). Revlon is now requesting to add a foreign status component to its FTZ production authority.

On its domestic sales, Revlon would be able to choose the duty rate during customs entry procedures that applies to hair coloring products (duty-free) for the foreign status input noted below. Customs duties also could possibly be deferred or reduced on foreign status production equipment. The sole component sourced from abroad included in this notification is: Oleic acid (duty rate—2.1c/kg + 3.2%). Public comment is invited from interested parties.
