Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 85 / Monday, May 4, 2015 / Notices
determined by APHIS to complete a pest
risk analysis in accordance with
international standards.
To assist importers who are interested
in requesting the importation of plants
for planting that are not allowed
importation under the regulations in
part 319, we are adding to this
information collection a new form, Plant
Protection and Quarantine Form 595,
Request to Develop a Pest Risk
Assessment for Plants for Planting. We
estimate that this new form will account
for 20 respondents, 20 total annual
responses, 0.25 hours per response, and
5 estimated total annual burden hours.
We have also decreased the estimated
total annual burden on respondents
from 2,960 hours to 26 hours to more
accurately reflect the total number of
hours importers need to complete and
submit a request to change the import
regulations. Although the estimated
annual number of respondents
increased from 37 to 62, there has been
a large decrease in the time (hours per
response) that it takes for each
respondent to prepare a request to
change the import regulations. The
hours per response decreased from 40
hours per response to 0.42 hours, which
is a more accurate estimate.
We are asking the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) to
approve our use of these information
collection activities, as described, 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 0.42
hours per response.
Respondents: Importers.
Estimated annual number of
respondents: 62.

Estimated annual number of
responses per respondent: 1.
Estimated annual number of
responses: 62.
Estimated total annual burden on
respondents: 26 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 28th day of
April 2015.

Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request
The Department of Commerce will
submit to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for clearance the
following proposal for collection of
information under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
chapter 35).
Agency: International Trade
Administration, Commerce.
Title: Domestic and International
Client Export Services and Customized
Forms.
OMB Control Number: 0625–0143.
Form Number(s): ITA–4096P.
Type of Request: Renewal submission.
Number of Respondents: 189,272.
Average Hours per Response: 10
minutes.
Burden Hours: 31,545 (annual).
Needs and Uses: The International
Trade Administration’s (ITA) U.S.
Commercial Service (CS) is mandated
by Congress to broaden and deepen the
U.S. exporter base. The CS
accomplishes this by providing
counseling, programs and services to
help U.S. organizations export and
conduct business in overseas markets.
This information collection package
enables the CS to provide appropriate
export services to U.S. exporters and
international buyers.
The Commercial Service (CS) offers a
variety of services to enable clients to
begin exporting/importing or to expand
existing exporting/importing efforts.
Clients may learn about our services
from business related entities such as
the National Association of
Manufacturers, Federal Express, State
Economic Development offices, the
Internet or word of mouth. The CS
provides a standard set of services to
assist clients with identifying potential
overseas partners, establishing meeting
programs with appropriate overseas
business contacts and providing due
diligence reports on potential overseas
business partners. The CS also provides
other export-related services considered
to be of a ‘‘customized nature’’ because
they do not fit into the standard set of
CS export services, but are driven by
unique business needs of individual
clients.

The dissemination of international
market information and potential
business opportunities for U.S.
exporters are critical components of the
Commercial Service’s export assistance
programs and services. U.S. companies
conveniently access and indicate their
interest in these services by completing
the appropriate forms via ITA and CS
U.S. Export Assistance Center Web sites.
The CS works closely with clients to
educate them about the exporting/
importing process and to help prepare
them for exporting/importing. When a
client is ready to begin the exporting/
importing process our field staff provide
counseling to assist in the development
of an exporting strategy. We provide feebased, export-related services designed
to help client export/import. The type of
export-related service that is proposed
to a client depends upon a client’s
business goals and where they are in the
export/import process. Some clients are
at the beginning of the export process
and require assistance with identifying
potential distributors, whereas other
clients may be ready to sign a contract
with a potential distributor and require
due diligence assistance.
Before the CS can provide exportrelated services to clients, such as
assistance with identifying potential
partners or providing due diligence,
specific information is required to
determine the client’s business
objectives and needs. For example,
before we can provide a service to
identify potential business partners we
need to know whether the client would
like a potential partner to have specific
technical qualifications, coverage in a
specific market, English or foreign
language ability or warehousing
requirements. This information
collection is designed to elicit such data
so that appropriate services can be
proposed and conducted to most
effectively meet the client’s exporting
goals. Without these forms the CS is
unable to provide services when
requested by clients.
The forms ask U.S. exporters standard
questions about their company details,
export experience, information about
the products or services they wish to
export and exporting goals. A few
questions are tailored to a specific
program type and will vary slightly with
each program. CS staff use this
information to gain an understanding of
client’s needs and objectives so that
they can provide appropriate and
effective export assistance tailored to an
exporter’s particular requirements.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations; Not-for-profit
institutions; State, Local, or Tribal
government; and Federal government.
