manufacturer to report to USDA the

dairy products sold and each entity
storing dairy products to report
information on the quantity of dairy
products stored. Any manufacturer that
processes, markets, or stores less than
1,000,000 pounds of dairy products per
year is exempt. USDA is required to
maintain information, statistics, or
documents obtained under these Acts in
a manner that ensures that
confidentiality is preserved regarding
the identity of persons and proprietary
business information, subject to
verification by the Agricultural
Marketing Service (AMS) under Public
Law 106–532. This Notice is submitted
in accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104–
13 (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.) and Office
of Management and Budget regulations

with OMB Implementation Guidance,
‘‘Implementation Guidance for Title V
of the E-Government Act, Confidential
Information Protection and Statistical
Efficiency Act of 2002 (CIPSEA),’’
Federal Register, Vol. 72, No. 115, June
15, 2007, p. 33362.
Estimate of Burden: Public reporting
burden for this collection of information
is estimated to average 11 minutes per
response. This average is based on the
7 different surveys in the information
collection: 2 monthly, 4 quarterly, and
1 annual. The estimated total number of
responses is 63,100 annually, with an
average annual frequency of 4.44
responses per respondent. NASS also
plans to increase the use of cover letters
to explain the importance and uses of
this data series along with how the
respondent can access and report their
data using the secure internet
connection that NASS will be using.
Respondents: Farms and businesses.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
14,200.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 11,100 hours.
Comments: Comments are invited on:
(a) Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden of the proposed collection
of information including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(c) ways to enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on those who are to respond, through
the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, technological or
other forms of information technology
collection methods. All responses to
this notice will become a matter of
public record and be summarized in the
request for OMB approval.

In the Matter of: Diocenyr Ribamar
Barbosa-Santos, 3928 Shiver Road,
Fort Worth, TX 76244–8692; Order
Denying Export Privileges
wreier-aviles on DSK4TPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
On October 3, 2013, in the U.S.
District Court for the Southern District
of Florida, Diocenyr Ribamar BarbosaSantos (‘‘Barbosa-Santos’’) was
convicted of violating the International
Emergency Economic Powers Act (50
U.S.C. 1701, et seq. (2006 & Supp. IV
2010)) (‘‘IEEPA’’). Specifically, BarbosaSantos knowingly and willfully engaged
in a transaction involving the attempted
export, sale, brokering and financing of
an A–300 Airbus aircraft from China to
Iran, in violation, inter alia, of IEEPA.
Barbosa-Santos was sentenced to 24
months in prison, three years of
supervised release, and a $100
assessment.
Section 766.25 of the Export
Administration Regulations (‘‘EAR’’ or
‘‘Regulations’’) 1 provides, in pertinent
part, that ‘‘[t]he Director of the Office of
Exporter Services, in consultation with
the Director of the Office of Export
Enforcement, may deny the export
privileges of any person who has been
convicted of a violation of the Export
Administration Act (‘‘EAA’’), the EAR,
or any order, license or authorization
issued thereunder; any regulation,
license, or order issued under the
International Emergency Economic
Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701–1706); 18
U.S.C. 793, 794 or 798; section 4(b) of
the Internal Security Act of 1950 (50
U.S.C. 783(b)), or section 38 of the Arms
Export Control Act (22 U.S.C. 2778).’’ 15
1 The Regulations are currently codified in the
Code of Federal Regulations at 15 CFR parts 730–
774 (2014). The Regulations issued pursuant to the
Export Administration Act (50 U.S.C. app. §§ 2401–
2420 (2000)) (‘‘EAA’’). Since August 21, 2001, the
EAA has been in lapse and the President, through
Executive Order 13222 of August 17, 2001 (3 CFR,
2001 Comp. 783 (2002)), which has been extended
by successive Presidential Notices, the most recent
being that of August 7, 2014 (79 FR 46959 (August
11, 2014)), has continued the Regulations in effect
under the International Emergency Economic
Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701, et seq. (2006 & Supp.
IV 2010)).

CFR 766.25(a); see also Section 11(h) of
the EAA, 50 U.S.C. app. § 2410(h). The
denial of export privileges under this
provision may be for a period of up to
10 years from the date of the conviction.
15 CFR 766.25(d); see also 50 U.S.C.
app. § 2410(h). In addition, Section
750.8 of the Regulations states that the
Bureau of Industry and Security’s Office
of Exporter Services may revoke any
Bureau of Industry and Security (‘‘BIS’’)
licenses previously issued in which the
person had an interest in at the time of
his conviction.
BIS has received notice of BarbosaSantos’s conviction for violating the
IEEPA, and in accordance with Section
766.25 of the Regulations, BIS has
provided notice and an opportunity for
Barbosa-Santos to make a written
submission to BIS. BIS has not received
a submission from Barbosa-Santos.
Based upon my review and
consultations with BIS’s Office of
Export Enforcement, including its
Director, and the facts available to BIS,
I have decided to deny Barbosa-Santos’s
export privileges under the Regulations
for a period of five (5) years from the
date of Barbosa-Santos’s conviction. I
have also decided to revoke all licenses
issued pursuant to the Act or
Regulations in which Barbosa-Santos
had an interest at the time of his
conviction.
Accordingly, it is hereby ordered:
First, from the date of this Order until
October 3, 2018, Diocenyr Ribamar
Barbosa-Santos, with a last known
address of 3928 Shiver Road, Fort
Worth, TX 76244–8692, and when
acting for or on his behalf, his
successors, assigns, employees, agents
or representatives (the ‘‘Denied
Person’’), may not, directly or indirectly,
participate in any way in any
transaction involving any commodity,
software or technology (hereinafter
collectively referred to as ‘‘item’’)
exported or to be exported from the
United States that is subject to the
Regulations, including, but not limited
to:
A. Applying for, obtaining, or using

concerning, or ordering, buying,
receiving, using, selling, delivering,
storing, disposing of, forwarding,

servicing in any way, any transaction
involving any item exported or to be

of the Denied Person any item subject to
the Regulations;

transaction whereby the Denied Person

Regulations with knowledge or reason
to know that the item will be, or is
intended to be, exported from the
United States; or

has been or will be exported from the

origin, that is owned, possessed or
controlled by the Denied Person if such
service involves the use of any item
subject to the Regulations that has been
or will be exported from the United
States. For purposes of this paragraph,
servicing means installation,
maintenance, repair, modification or
testing.
Third, after notice and opportunity for
comment as provided in Section 766.23
of the Regulations, any other person,
firm, corporation, or business
organization related to Barbosa-Santos
by ownership, control, position of
responsibility, affiliation, or other
