SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Industry Responses to
Noncompliance Records
OMB Control Number: 0583–0146.
Type of Request: Renewal of an
approved information collection.
Expiration Date: 12/31/2016.
Abstract: FSIS has been delegated the
authority to exercise the functions of the
Secretary of Agriculture (7 CFR 2.18,
2.53) as specified in the Federal Meat
Inspection Act (FMIA) (21 U.S.C. 601, et
seq.), the Poultry Products and
Inspection Act (PPIA) (21 U.S.C. 451, et
seq.), and the Egg Products Inspection
Act (EPIA) (21 U.S.C. 1031, et seq.).
FSIS protects the public by verifying
that meat, poultry, and egg products are
safe, wholesome, not adulterated, and
correctly labeled.
FSIS is requesting a renewal of the
previously approved information
collection addressing paperwork
requirements related to the collection of
information on official meat or poultry
establishment and egg products plant
responses to noncompliance records.
The noncompliance record, FSIS Form
5400–4, serves as FSIS’s official record
of noncompliance with one or more
regulatory requirements. Inspection
program personnel use the form to
document their findings and provide
written notification of the official
establishment’s or plant’s failure to
comply with regulatory requirements.
The establishment or plant management
receives a copy of the form and has an
opportunity to respond in writing using
the noncompliance record form.
The OMB approval of this information
collection will expire on December 31,
2016. The number of estimated burden
hours for this requested renewal has
decreased because of a decrease in the

average number of responses to
noncompliance records that were
collected over the past three years.
Upon approval of this request, the hours
will be merged into the FSIS

Health Information System (0583–0153).
FSIS has made the following
estimates on the basis of an information
collection assessment:
Estimate of Burden: FSIS estimates
that it will take respondents an average
of 60 minutes per response.
Respondents: Official establishments
and plants.
Estimated No. of Respondents: 7,057.
Estimated No. of Annual Responses
per Respondent: 17.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 119,969 hours.
