Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service Title: Special Need Request Under the Plant Protection Act. OMB Control Number: 0579–0291. Summary of Collection: 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 PO 00000 Frm 00002 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 9990 prevent the introduction of plant pests into the United States or their dissemination 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. Regulations governing the interstate movement of plants, plant products, and other articles are contained in 7 CFR part 301, ‘‘Domestic Quarantine Notices.’’ These regulations in ‘‘SubpartPreemption and Special Need Requests’’ allow States or political subdivisions of States to request approval from APHIS to impose prohibitions or restrictions on the movement in interstate commerce of specific articles that pose a plant health risk that are in addition to the prohibitions and restrictions imposed by APHIS. Need and Use of the Information: APHIS believes that specific information—such as a pest data detection survey with a pest risk analysis that shows that a pest is not present in a State, or if already present, the current distribution in the State, and that the pest would harm or injure the environment and/or agricultural resources of the State or political subdivision—is needed and would be considered along with more general information available to APHIS for the Administrator to be able to determine whether to grant or deny a request for a special need exemption. The administrator’s determination would be based upon his or her review of the information submitted by the State or political subdivision in support of its request and would consider any comments received. If this information was not collected or collected less frequently, it would create vulnerabilities which would cripple APHIS’ ability to prevent the introduction or spread of plant pests and diseases in the United States.
