USDA and the Secretary. For the
purposes of this action, ballots are
considered information collections and
are subject to the Paperwork Reduction
Act. If a marketing order is amended,
handlers are asked to sign an agreement
indicating their willingness to abide by
the provisions of the amended
marketing order.
Some forms are required to be filed
with the committee or board. The
marketing orders authorize the
respective committee or board, the
agencies responsible for local
administration of the marketing orders,
to require handlers and producers to
submit certain information. Much of the
information is compiled in aggregate
and provided to the respective
industries to assist in marketing
decisions. The committees and boards
developed forms as a means for persons
to file required information relating to
supplies, shipments, and dispositions of
their respective commodities, and other
information needed to effectively carry
out the purpose of the Act and their
respective orders, and these forms are
utilized accordingly.
The forms covered under this
information collection require
respondents to provide the minimum
information necessary to effectively
carry out the requirements of the
marketing orders, and use of these forms
is necessary to fulfill the intent of the
Act as expressed in the marketing
orders.
The information collected is used
only by authorized employees of the
committees and authorized
representatives of the USDA, including
AMS, Specialty Crops Program’s
regional and headquarters’ staff.
Authorized committee or board
employees are the primary users of the
information and AMS is the secondary
user.
Estimate of Burden: Public reporting
burden for this collection of information
is estimated to average 0.32 hours per
response.
Respondents: Producers, handlers,
processors, dehydrators, cooperatives,
manufacturers, importers, and public
members.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
15,481.
Estimated Number of Responses:
79,213.
Estimated Number of Responses per
Respondent: 5.12.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 25,438 hours.
Comments are invited on: (1) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have

practical utility; (2) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (3)
ways to enhance the quality, utility and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (4) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on those who are to respond, including
through the use of appropriate
automated, electronic, mechanical, or
other technological collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology.
Comments should reference OMB No.
0581–0178 OMB Vegetable and
Specialty Crop Marketing Orders, and
be sent to the USDA in care of the
Docket Clerk at the address above. All
comments received will be available for
public inspection during regular
business hours at the same address.
All responses to this notice will be
summarized and included in the request
for OMB approval. All comments will
also become a matter of public record.
AMS is committed to complying with
the E-Government Act to promote the
use of the internet and other
information technologies, to provide
