SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Importation of Poultry Meat and
Other Poultry Products From Sinaloa
and Sonora, Mexico.
OMB Control Number: 0579–0144.
Type of Request: 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,
among other things, to prohibit the
importation and interstate movement of
animals and animal products to prevent
the introduction into and dissemination
within the United States of animal
diseases and pests. To fulfill this
mission, APHIS regulates the
importation of animals and animal
products into the United States. The
regulations are contained in title 9,
chapter I, subchapter D, parts 91
through 99, of the Code of Federal
Regulations.
The regulations in part 94, among
other things, restrict the importation of
poultry meat and other poultry products
from Mexico and other regions of the
world where Newcastle disease has
been determined to exist. The
regulations allow the importation of
poultry meat and poultry products from
the Mexican States of Sinaloa and
Sonora under conditions that protect
against the introduction of Newcastle
disease into the United States.
To ensure that these items are safe for
importation, we require that certain data
appear on the foreign meat inspection
certificate that accompanies the poultry
meat or other poultry products from
Sinaloa and Sonora. We also require
that serially numbered seals be applied
to containers carrying the poultry meat
or other poultry products.
Since the last approval of these
collection activities, shipments of
poultry meat and other poultry products
from Sinaloa and Sonora to the United
States have increased. As a result of the
increase in shipments, the estimated
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 232001
annual number of respondents has
increased from 280 to 386, and the
estimated annual total burden has
accordingly increased from 280 hours to
386 hours.
We are asking 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 1
hour per response.
Respondents: Federal animal health
authorities in Mexico and exporters of
poultry meat and other poultry products
from Mexico to the United States.
Estimated annual number of
respondents: 386.
Estimated annual number of
responses per respondent: 1.
Estimated annual number of
responses: 386.
Estimated total annual burden on
respondents: 386 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.
Done in Washington, DC, this 11th day of
June 2014.
Kevin Shea,
Administrator, Animal and Plant Health
Inspection Service.
