SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August
12, 2016, we published in the Federal
Register (81 FR 53398–53399) a notice 1
of intent to prepare a programmatic
environmental impact statement (EIS) to
analyze and examine the environmental
effects of control alternatives available
to the agency, including a no action
alternative, for the Fruit Fly Cooperative
Control Program. The notice solicited
comments from the public for additional
alternatives and environmental impacts
that should be examined further in the
EIS. We invited comments through
September 26, 2016, and received seven
comments during the 45-day comment
period.
On April 27, 2018, the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
published a notice of availability for the
draft EIS in the Federal Register (83 FR
18554). APHIS made the draft EIS
available and invited public comment
through June 11, 2018. Our responses to
the two comments received are in the
final EIS. On November 16, 2018, the
EPA published a notice of availability of
the final EIS in the Federal Register (83
FR 57726). APHIS published the final
EIS with a review period of 30 days
ending December 17, 2018.
The National Environmental Policy
Act (NEPA) implementing regulations in
40 CFR 1506.10 require a minimum 30day waiting period between the time a
final EIS is published and the time an
agency makes a decision on an action

covered by the EIS. APHIS has reviewed
the final EIS and comments received
during the 30-day waiting period and
has concluded that the final EIS fully
analyzes the issues covered by the draft
EIS and addresses the comments and
suggestions submitted by commenters.
This notice advises the public that the
waiting period has elapsed, and APHIS
has issued a record of decision (ROD) to
implement the preferred alternative
described in the final EIS.
The ROD has been prepared in
accordance with: (1) NEPA, as amended
(42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.); (2) regulations
of the Council on Environmental
Quality for implementing the
procedural provisions of NEPA (40 CFR
parts 1500–1508); (3) USDA regulations
implementing NEPA (7 CFR part 1b);
and (4) APHIS’ NEPA Implementing
Procedures (7 CFR part 372).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Certificates of Medical
Examination.
OMB Control Number: 0583–0167.
Expiration Date: 1/31/2022.
Type of Request: Revision of an
approved information collection.
Abstract: FSIS has been delegated the
authority to exercise the functions of the
Secretary (7 CFR 2.18, 2.53) as specified
in the Federal Meat Inspection Act
(FMIA) (21 U.S.C. 601, et seq.), the
Poultry Products Inspection Act (PPIA)
PO 00000

(21 U.S.C. 451, et seq.) and the Egg
Products Inspection Act (EPIA) (21
U.S.C. 1031, et seq.). These statutes
mandate that FSIS protect the public by
verifying that meat, poultry, and egg
products are safe, wholesome,
unadulterated, and properly labeled and
packaged.
FSIS is requesting revision of the
approved information collection
regarding certificates of medical
examination, by adding two new
medical examination forms to the
collection. The Agency has increased
the burden estimate by 59 hours due to
the addition of these forms for
completion by health care providers.
FSIS employees will ask their health
care providers to complete FSIS Form
4306–5, ‘‘Medical Documentation for
Employee’s Reasonable Accommodation
Request,’’ if they apply for a reasonable
accommodation, and FSIS Form 4630–
8, ‘‘Confidential Medical Information,’’
if they apply for the FSIS Leave Bank
Program. The approval for this
information collection will expire on
January 31, 2022.
The current information collection
approval includes FSIS Form 4339–1,
‘‘Certificate of Medical Examination
(with Medical History).’’ FSIS uses this
form to determine whether an applicant
for a Food Inspector, Consumer Safety
Inspector, or Veterinary Medical Officer
in-plant position meets the medical
qualification standards for the position
approved by the Office of Personnel
Management (OPM). The certificates of
medical examination ensure accurate
collection of the required data. The
OPM-approved medical qualification
standards apply only to positions in
FSIS, not positions in other Federal
agencies.
When requesting that applicants for
the positions listed above undergo the
medical examination, a representative of
FSIS notifies the applicants in writing of
the reasons for the examination, the
process, and the consequences of the
failure to report for an examination or
provide medical documentation. Any
physical condition that would hinder an
individual’s full, efficient, and safe
performance of his or her duties is
considered disqualifying for
employment, except when the
individual presents convincing
evidence that he or she can perform the
essential functions of the job efficiently
and without hazard.
In addition to the FSIS Form 4339–1,
FSIS is adding two new medical
examination forms for completion by
health care providers to the information
collection. First, FSIS will use the FSIS
Form 4306–5, ‘‘Medical Documentation
