Title: Importation of Products of
Poultry and Birds.
OMB Control Number: 0579–0141.
Summary of Collection: The Animal
Health protection Act (AHPA) of 2002 is
the primary Federal law governing the
protection of the health of animals
under the Animal & Plant Health
Inspection Service (APHIS) regulatory
authority. The law gives the Secretary of
Agriculture broad authority to detect,
control, or eradicate pests or diseases of
livestock or poultry. The AHPA is
contained in Title X, Subtitle E, and
Sections 10401–18 of Public Law 107–
171, dated may 13, 2002, and the Farm
Security and Rural Investment Act of
2002. The regulations under which
disease prevention activities are
contained are in Title 9, Chapter 1,
Subchapter D, and Parts 91 through 99
of the Code of Federal Regulations. The
purpose of these regulations is to allow
poultry meat that originates in the
United States to be shipped, for
processing purposes, to a region where
exotic Newcastle disease exists, and
then returned to the United States. The
process entails the use of four
information collection activities in the
form of a certificate of origin that must
be issued, including serial numbers that
must be recorded, records that must be
maintained, and cooperative service
agreements that must be signed and an
a certificates for shipment back to the
United States.
Need and Use of the Information:
APHIS will collect information to
ensure that imported poultry carcasses
pose a negligible risk of introducing
END into the United States. If the
information is not collected, it would
significantly cripple APHIS’ ability to
ensure that poultry carcasses imported
from regions affected with END pose a
negligible risk of introducing this
disease into the United States.
This would make a disease incursion
event much more likely, with
potentially devastating effects on the
U.S. poultry industry.
