Abstract: The Marketing and
Regulatory Programs (MRP) agencies of
the U.S. Department of Agriculture
facilitate the domestic and international
marketing of U.S. agricultural products
and protect the health of domestic
animal and plant resources. The MRP
agencies are the Agricultural Marketing
Service, the Animal and Plant Health
Inspection Service (APHIS), and the
Grain Inspection, Packers and
Stockyards Administration. Resource
management and administrative
services, including human resource
management, for the three MRP agencies
are provided by the MRP Business

Jkt 232001
Services unit of APHIS, which is the
lead agency in providing administrative
support for MRP.
In accordance with 5 CFR part 339,
Federal agencies are authorized to
obtain medical information from
applicants for positions that have
approved medical standards. Medical
standards may be established for
positions for which the duties are
arduous or hazardous or require a
certain level of health status or fitness.
Certain positions in MRP agencies
have medical standards. MRP hires
individuals each year who work under
dusty conditions, around moving
machinery and slippery surfaces, and in
areas with high noise levels. The MRP
agencies require a self-certification
medical statement (MRP Form 5–R)
from applicants for these positions
regarding their fitness for the positions.
The MRP agencies need this information
to determine whether the applicants can
perform the duties of the positions.
Inability to collect this information
would adversely affect the MRP
agencies’ ability to make employment
decisions and determinations regarding
an applicant’s physical fitness to safely
and efficiently perform assigned duties.
Since the last approval of this
collection activity, the number of
applicants for certain positions that
require medical standards has
decreased; therefore, the number of
respondents using the self-certification
medical statement has decreased. As a
result, the estimated annual number of
respondents has decreased from 524 to
322, and the estimated total annual
burden has decreased from 88 hours to
54 hours.
We are asking the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) to
approve our use of this information
collection activity 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
information collection, 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
information collection 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
0.167 hours per response.
Respondents: Applicants for MRP
positions with approved medical
standards.
Estimated annual number of
respondents: 322.
Estimated annual number of
responses per respondent: 1.
Estimated annual number of
responses: 322.
Estimated total annual burden on
respondents: 54 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 20th day of
June 2014.
