Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service Title: Domestic Quarantine Regulations. OMB Control Number: 0579–0088. 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. Plant Protection and Quarantine, a program within USDA’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, (APHIS) is responsible for implementing this Act and does so through the enforcement of its domestic quarantine regulations PO 00000 Frm 00002 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 10399 contained in Title 7 of the Code of Federal Regulations, CFR part 301. Administering these regulations often requires APHIS to collect information from a variety of individuals who are involved in growing, packing, handling, transporting, plants and plant products. The information collected from these individuals is vital to helping ensure that injurious plant diseases and insect pests do not spread within the United States. Information to be collected is necessary to determine compliance with domestic quarantines. Federal/State domestic quarantines are necessary to regulate the movement of articles from infested areas to noninfested area. Collecting information requires the use of a number of forms and documents. APHIS will collect information using various forms and documents. Need and Use of the Information: APHIS will collect information by interviewing growers and shippers at the time the inspections are being conducted and by having growers and shippers of exported plants and plant products complete an application for a transit permit. Information is collected from the growers, packers, shippers, and exporters of regulated articles to ensure that the articles, when moved from a quarantined area, do not harbor injurious plant diseases and insect pests. The information obtained will be used to determine compliance with regulations and for issuance of forms, permits, certificates, and other required documents.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title: Voluntary Destruction of Imported Meat, Poultry, and Egg Products. OMB Control Number: 0583–XXXX. Type of Request: Request for a new 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) (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. Imported meat, poultry, and egg products that do not comply with U.S. requirements are not allowed to enter U.S. commerce and are identified as ‘‘U.S. Refused Entry’’ product. Inspection Program Personnel (IPP) are required to verify that U.S. refused entry product is stored and segregated from other product at an official import inspection establishment until final disposition occurs, or permission to PO 00000 Frm 00004 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 10401 move the shipment is granted by a FSIS Office of Field Operations (OFO) District Office (DO). The regulations at 9 CFR 327.13, 381.202, 557.13, and 590.945 provide different options for the disposition of U.S. Refused entry product, including: (1) Exportation (return) of the product to the originating country or to a third country, if permitted; (2) destruction of the product for human food purposes; (3) denaturing the product so it cannot be used for human food; (4) conversion of the product to animal food if permitted and approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and that permission is communicated to the FSIS DO; and (5) rectification if the reason for refusal has been corrected. FSIS is requesting a new information collection to document the Importer/ Broker/Agent decision to voluntarily destroy product for human food purposes. This information collection is applicable only to destruction witnessed by FSIS IPP. FSIS IPP will use the information during the observation of the product destruction to verify that the product being destroyed is the same product that was refused entry and that the product is controlled by the import establishment until destruction is completed. This is a new information collection with an estimated burden of 17,818 hours. The Importer/Broker/Agent will complete FSIS Form 9840–4, Voluntary Destruction of Imported Meat (Including Siluriformes), Poultry, and Egg Product, for product that will be destroyed under FSIS supervision. The form will be maintained in the FSIS case file. IPP will also enter information into the Public Health Information System (PHIS) based on the information provided on the form. FSIS has made the following estimates based upon an information collection assessment: Estimate of Burden: FSIS estimates that it will take respondents an average of 5 minutes per response. Respondents: Importers/Brokers/ Agents. Estimated Total Number of Respondents: 151. Estimated Annual Number of Responses per Respondent: 1,416. Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 17,818 hours. Copies of this information collection assessment can be obtained from Gina Kouba, Office of Policy and Program Development, Food Safety and Inspection Service, USDA, 1400 Independence Avenue SW, Room 6065, South Building, Washington, DC 20250–3700; (202) 720– 5627.

Background

    Codex was established in 1963 by two United Nations organizations, 
the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the World Health 
Organization (WHO). Through adoption of food standards, codes of 
practice, and other guidelines developed by its committees, and by 
promoting their adoption and implementation by governments, Codex seeks 
to protect the health of consumers and ensure fair practices in the 
food trade. The CCMAS is responsible for defining the criteria 
appropriate to Codex Methods of Analysis and Sampling; serving as a 
coordinating body for Codex with other international groups working in 
methods of analysis and sampling and quality assurance systems for 
laboratories; specifying, on the basis of final recommendations 
submitted to it by other bodies, reference methods of analysis and 
sampling, appropriate to Codex standards which are generally applicable 
to a number of foods; considering, amending, and endorsing, as 
appropriate, methods of analysis and sampling proposed by Codex 
(Commodity) Committees, (except that methods of analysis and sampling 
for residues of pesticides or veterinary drugs in food, the assessment 
of micro-biological quality and safety in food, and the assessment of 
specifications for food additives, do not fall within the terms of 
reference of this Committee); elaborating sampling plans and 
procedures; considering specific sampling and analysis problems 
submitted to it by the Commission or any of its committees; and 
defining procedures, protocols, guidelines, or related texts for the 
assessment of food laboratory proficiency, as well as quality assurance
