SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Importation of Fresh Baby Kiwi
From Chile.
OMB Control Number: 0579–0374.
Type of Request: Revision to and
extension of approval of an information
collection.
Abstract: The Plant Protection Act
(PPA, 7 U.S.C. 7701 et seq.) authorizes
the Secretary of Agriculture to restrict
the importation, entry, or interstate
movement of plants, plant products, and
other articles to prevent the
introduction of plant pests into the
United States or their dissemination
within the United States. As authorized
by the PPA, the Animal and Plant
Health Inspection Service regulates the
importation of certain fruits and
vegetables in accordance with the
regulations in ‘‘Subpart—Fruits and
Vegetables’’ (7 CFR 319.56–1 through
319.56–76).
Under these regulations, fresh baby
kiwi from Chile may be imported into

Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
the continental United States under
certain conditions, as listed in 7 CFR
319.56–53, to prevent the introduction
of plant pests into the United States.
The regulations require information
collection activities, including an
operational workplan, low prevalence
production site certification, production
site registration, phytosanitary
inspections, labeling of containers,
identification of fruit in shipping
documentation to specify production
sites and packing sheds where fruit was
processed, and a phytosanitary
certificate.
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 0.02
hours per response.
Respondents: Growers and shippers of
fresh baby kiwi from Chile and the
national plant protection organization of
Chile.
Estimated annual number of
respondents: 5.
Estimated annual number of
responses per respondent: 8,243.6.
Estimated annual number of
responses: 41,218.
Estimated total annual burden on
respondents: 849 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.
