Title: Importation of Female Squash
Flowers from Israel into the Continental
United States.
OMB Control Number: 0579–0406.
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).
Section 319.56–68 provides the
requirements for the importation of
female squash flowers from Israel into
the continental United States. This
commodity may be imported under
certain conditions to prevent the
introduction of plant pests into the
United States. The regulations require
information collection activities,
including production site registration,
trapping records, box marking,
production site inspection, and
phytosanitary certificates.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: South American Cactus Moth;
Quarantine and Regulations.
OMB Control Number: 0579–0337.
Type of Request: Revision to and
extension of approval of an information
collection.
Abstract: As authorized by the Plant
Protection Act (PPA, 7 U.S.C. 7701 et
seq.), the Secretary of Agriculture, either
independently or in cooperation with
States, may carry out operations or
measures to detect, eradicate, suppress,
control, prevent, or retard the spread of
plant pests that are new to or not widely
distributed within the United States.
This authority has been delegated to the
Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service (APHIS) of the U.S. Department
of Agriculture, which administers
regulations to implement the PPA.
In accordance with the regulations in
‘‘Subpart—South American Cactus
Moth’’ (7 CFR 301.55 through 301.55–9),
APHIS restricts the interstate movement
of cactus moth host material, including
nursery stock and plant parts for
consumption, from infested areas of the
United States to help prevent the spread
of South American cactus moth into
noninfested areas of the United States.
The regulations contain requirements
for the interstate movement of regulated
articles and involve information
collection activities, including
completion of Federal certificates,
compliance agreements, and limited
permits.
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
