Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 123 / Wednesday, June 28, 2017 / Notices
Ramorum’’ (7 CFR 301.92 through
301.92–12, referred to as the regulation),
USDA’s Animal and Plant Health
Inspection Service (APHIS) restricts the
interstate movement of certain regulated
and restricted articles from quarantined
areas in California and Oregon and
regulated areas from California, Oregon,
and Washington to prevent the artificial
spread of Phytophthora ramorum, the
pathogen that causes the plant disease
commonly known as sudden oak death,
ramorum left blight, and ramorum
dieback.
Need and Use of the Information:
APHIS will collect information through
a compliance agreement to establish
restrictions on the interstate movement
of nursery stock from nurseries in nonquarantined counties in California,
Oregon, and Washington. If California,
Oregon, and Washington State did not
comply with provisions by signing a
compliance agreement, P. ramorum
would have the potential to spread to
eastern forests adversely impacting the
ecosystem balances, foreign/domestic
nursery stocks, and lumber markets.
Description of Respondents: Business
or other for-profit and States.
Number of Respondents: 29.
Frequency of Responses:
Recordkeeping; Reporting: On occasion.

Title: Importation of Pomegranates
from Chile under a System Approach.
OMB Control Number: 0579–0375.
Summary of Collection: Under the
Plant Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 7701–
7772), the Secretary of Agriculture is
authorized to prohibit or restrict the
importation, entry, or movement of
plants and plant pests to prevent the
introduction of plant pests into the
United States or their dissemination
within the United States. The
regulations in ‘‘Subpart-Fruit and
Vegetables’’ (7 CFR 319.56–58), prohibit
or restrict the importation of fruits and
vegetables into the United States from
certain parts of the world to prevent the
introduction and dissemination within
the United States. The importation of
pomegranates from Chile, into the
continental United States, is under a
system approach in which the fruit must
be grown in a place of production that
is registered with the Government of
Chile and certified as having a low
prevalence of Brevipalpus chilensis.
The fruit undergoes pre-harvest
sampling at the registered production
site. After the post-harvest process, the
fruit is inspected in Chile at an
approved inspection site.

Need and Use of the Information: The
Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service will use the following activities
to collect information: Phytosanitary
Certificate with/Additional Declaration,
Production Site Registration, Marking of
Cartons with Registration Number, and
List of Certified Production Sites.
Falling to collect this information would
cripple APHIS’ ability to ensure
pomegranates from Chile are not
carrying plant pests.

Local or Tribal Government; Federal
Government.

Title: Bovine Spongiform
Encephalopathy (BSE); Importation of
Animals and Animal Products.
OMB Control Number: 0579–0393.
Summary of Collection: The Animal
Health Protection Act (AHPA) of 2002 is
the primary Federal law governing the
protection of animal health. The law
gives the Secretary of Agriculture broad
authority to detect, control, or eradicate
pests or diseases of livestock or poultry.
The Secretary may also prohibit or
restrict import or export of any animal
or related material if necessary to
prevent the spread of any livestock or
poultry pest or disease. The AHPA is
contained in Title X, Subtitle E,
Sections 10401–18 of Public Law 107–
171, May 13, 2002, the Farm Security
and Rural Investment Act of 2002. The
Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service (APHIS) regulates the
importation of animals and animal
products into the United States to guard
against the introduction of animal
diseases. The regulations in 9 CFR parts
92 through 98, govern the importation of
certain animals, birds, poultry, meat,
other animal products and byproducts,
hay, and straw. It also contains
measures for preventing the
introduction of various diseases into the
United States.
Need and Use of the Information: To
ensure BSE is not introduced into the
United States, the regulations place
specific conditions on the importation
of animals and animal products. These
requirements necessitate the use of
several information collection activities,
including, but not limited to,
certification, official identification,
request for and retention of
classification as negligible or controlled
risk, declaration of importation, import
and export certificates, applications,
import and movement permits,

agreements, certification statements,
seals, notifications, and recordkeeping.
Failure to collect this information
would make it impossible for APHIS to
effectively prevent BSE-contaminated
animals and animal products from
entering the United States, and to track
movement of any imported BSEcontaminated animals or products
within the United States post-arrival.

or other for-profit; Federal Government.

behalf of the Secretary of Commerce, the
Director announces the commencement
of Phase 2 of the 2020 Census
Redistricting Data Program. The purpose
of this notice is to provide further
information on the commencement of
the 2020 Census Redistricting Data
Program, Phase 2—The Voting District
Project. Future Federal Register notices
will address the other phases of the
2020 Program.
The 2020 Census Redistricting Data
Program was initially announced on
July 15, 2014, in the Federal Register
(79 FR 41258). This notice described the
program that the Census Bureau
proposed to adopt for the 2020 Census.
As seen in the 1990, 2000, and 2010
censuses, the 2020 Census Redistricting
Data Program is partitioned into several
phases. Phase 1: The Block Boundary
Suggestion Project was announced in a
Federal Register notice on June 26, 2015
(80 FR 36765). This notice described the
procedures for the States to provide the
Census Bureau with their suggestions
for the 2020 Census tabulation block
inventory.
Beginning in late summer of 2017,
and by separate letter, the Census
Bureau will invite each state to
participate in Phase 2, the Voting
District Project, through their previously
designated liaison. This phase will
include an opportunity to submit voting
districts and then verify the submitted
voting districts prior to release of the
2020 redistricting data tabulations in
Phase 3. For each State responding by
December 15, 2017, that wishes to
participate in Phase 2, the Census
Bureau will provide data from the
Master Address File/Topologically
Integrated Geographic Encoding and
Referencing system (MAF/TIGER), an
optional software tool (Geographic
Update Partnership Software (GUPS)),
and the procedures necessary for each
State to begin work on Phase 2. States
are not required to use the GUPS;
however, they are required to provide
their Phase 2 submission to the Census
Bureau electronically in Census Bureau
specified formats. During the
submission period, the Census Bureau
will provide training in the use of the
GUPS and assist the states in
understanding the procedures necessary
for processing files for their submission.
The Census Bureau will continue to
communicate with each State to ensure
they are well informed on the benefits
of working with the Census Bureau
towards a successful 2020 Census. In
addition, the Redistricting Data Office
will continue to work with each State to
ensure they are prepared to participate
in all phases of the Redistricting Data
Program. Every State, regardless of their
