routine animal health management. A
few events, such as infected-herd
investigations, occur only a few times a
year.
In addition, the bovine brucellosis
program regulations in part 78 provide
a system for classifying States or
portions of States according to the rate
of B. abortus infection present and the
general effectiveness of a brucellosis
control and eradication program. The
program also provides for the creation of
brucellosis management areas within a
State and for testing and movement
mitigation activities before regulated
animals are permitted to move
interstate. This system enhances the
ability of States to move healthy,
brucellosis-free cattle and bison
interstate and internationally. This
management area and testing system
also enhances the effectiveness of the
Brucellosis Eradication Program by
decreasing the likelihood that infected
animals will be moved interstate or
internationally.
The creation of brucellosis
management areas allows States that
have found B. abortus in wildlife (which
are nonregulated animals) to mitigate
the risk of transmission and spread of
disease while maintaining the State’s
disease-free status in regulated domestic
livestock. The State must sign a
memorandum of understanding with the
Administrator that describes its
brucellosis management plan. The
brucellosis management plan developed
by the State must define the geographic
brucellosis management area and
describe the surveillance and mitigation
activities that the State will conduct to
identify occurrence of B. abortus in
domestic livestock and wildlife and
potential risks for spread of the disease.
We are asking 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

Estimated annual number of
responses: 955,943.

for OMB approval. All comments will
also become a matter of public record.
