SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Egg, Chicken, and Turkey
Surveys.
OMB Number: 0535–0004.
Expiration Date of Approval: January
31, 2016.
Type of Request: Intent to seek
approval to revise and extend an
information collection for 3 years.
Abstract: The primary objective of the
National Agricultural Statistics Service
is to prepare and issue State and
national estimates of crop and livestock
production, prices, and disposition. The
Egg, Chicken, and Turkey Surveys
obtain basic poultry statistics from
voluntary cooperators throughout the
Nation. Statistics are published on
placement of pullet chicks for hatchery
supply flocks; hatching reports for
broiler-type, egg-type, and turkey eggs;
number of layers on hand; total table egg
production; and production and value
estimates for eggs, chickens, and
turkeys. The frequencies of the surveys
being conducted include weekly,
monthly, and annually. This
information is used by producers,
processors, feed dealers, and others in
marketing and supply channels as a
basis for production and marketing
decisions. Government agencies use
these estimates to evaluate poultry
product supplies. The information is an
important consideration in government
purchases for the National School
Lunch Program and in formulation of
export-import policy. The current
expiration date for this docket is January
31, 2016. NASS intends to request that
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 235001
the surveys be approved for another 3
years.
Authority: These data will be
collected under the authority of 7 U.S.C.
2204(a). Individually identifiable data
collected under this authority are
governed by section 1770 of the Food
Security Act of 1985 as amended, 7
U.S.C. 2276, which requires USDA to
afford strict confidentiality to nonaggregated data provided by
respondents. 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
at 5 CFR part 1320.
NASS also complies 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 between 8 and 35 minutes
per respondent per survey.
Respondents: Farmers, ranchers, farm
managers, and farm contractors.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
2,200.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 2,800 hours. This will
include burden for both the initial
mailing and phone follow-up to nonrespondents, as well as publicity and
instruction materials mailed out with
questionnaires.
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.
