SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Importation of Live Swine, Pork,
and Pork Products From Certain Regions
Free of Classical Swine Fever in Brazil,
Chile, and Mexico.
OMB Number: 0579–0230.
Type of Request: Revision to and
extension of approval of an information
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,
PO 00000
Frm 00001
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
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 for the importation of
animals and animal products are
contained in 9 CFR parts 92 through 98.
Part 94 allows the importation, under
certain conditions, of live swine, pork,
and pork products from certain regions
that are free of classical swine fever
(CSF) in Brazil, Chile, and Mexico to
prevent the introduction of CSF into the
United States. In accordance with
§ 94.25, APHIS recognizes certain
regions in Brazil, Chile, and Mexico as
free of CSF but places restrictions on the
importation of live swine, pork, and
pork products from these regions. These
restrictions are placed because these
regions either supplement their pork
supplies by importing fresh (chilled or
frozen) pork from CSF-affected regions,
supplement their pork supplies with
pork from CSF-affected regions that is
not processed in accordance with the
requirements in part 94, share a
common land border with CSF-affected
regions, or import live swine from such
regions under conditions less restrictive
than would be acceptable for
importation into the United States.
To ensure that the importation of live
swine, pork, and pork products from
Brazil, Chile, and Mexico do not
introduce CSF into the United States,
the regulations include certain
information collection activities,
including certificates, compliance
agreements, and cooperative service
agreements. These information
collection activities were previously
approved by the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for Chile and
Mexico. However, on November 16,
2010 (75 FR 69851–69857, Docket No.
APHIS–2009–0034), APHIS amended
the regulations to add the Brazilian
State of Santa Catarina to the list of
regions in § 94.25.
In addition, since the last approval of
this collection, the demand for imported
pork and pork products has increased,
which is reflected by an increased
number of certificates issued by foreign
veterinarians. As a result, we have
increased the estimated annual number
