availability of up to $100 million in
competitive grants to eligible entities for
activities designed to expand the sales
and use of renewable fuels under the
Higher Blends Infrastructure Incentive
Program (HBIIP). Of the total amount of
available funds, approximately $86
million are available to transportation
fueling facilities (including fueling
stations, convenience stores,
hypermarket fueling stations, fleet
facilities, and similar entities with
capital investments) and approximately
$14 million are available to fuel
distribution facilities (including
terminal operations, depots, and
midstream partners), for eligible
implementation activities related to
higher blends of fuel ethanol, such as
E15 or higher; greater than 10 percent
ethanol and higher blends of biodiesel,
such as B20 or higher; greater than 5
percent biodiesel. Cost-share grants of
up to 50 percent of eligible project costs
but not more than $5 million will be
made available to assist transportation
fueling and biodiesel distribution
facilities. This information collection is
needed for RBCS to identify eligible
applicants seeking grant funds through
the HBIIP and provide funding this
fiscal year.
HBIIP is intended to encourage a more
comprehensive approach to marketing
higher blends biofuels by sharing the
costs related to building out biofuelrelated infrastructure. To be eligible for
this program, a project’s sole purpose
must be to assist transportation fueling
and biodiesel distribution facilities with
converting to higher ethanol and
biodiesel blend friendly status by
sharing the costs related to the
installation, and/or retrofitting, and/or
otherwise upgrading of fuel storage,
dispenser/pumps, related equipment,
and infrastructure. An eligible project
must conform to all applicable Federal,
State and local regulatory requirements.
Need and Use of the Information:
Pursuant to the authorization by the
Commodity Credit Corporation Charter
Act of 1948 (Charter Act), (62 Stat. 1070;
15 U.S.C. 714. Charter Act), RBCS will
collect information to determine
whether participants meet the eligibility
requirements to be a recipient of grant
funds, project eligibility, conduct the
technical evaluation, calculate a priority
score, rank and compete the application,
as applicable, in order to be considered.
Lack of adequate information to make
the determination could result in the
improper administration and
appropriation of Federal grant funds.
Applications must be submitted
electronically using either the
Government-wide www.grants.gov
website or by the secure-server portal

United States. Eligible entities would
include fueling stations, convenience
stores, hypermarket fueling stations,
fleet facilities, and similar entities with
equivalent capital investments, as well
as biodiesel terminal operations and
heating oil distribution facilities or
equivalent entities.
There are two different eligible
activities an applicant can apply for
grant funds: (1) For Higher Blend
Implementation Activities related to
Transportation Fueling Facilities and (2)
For Higher Blend Implementation
Activities related to Fuel Distribution
Facilities.

Animal Plant and Health Inspection
Service
Title: Export Certification,
Accreditation of Non-Government
Facilities.
OMB Control Number: 0579–0130.
Summary of Collection: The
Department of Agriculture (USDA),
Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service (APHIS) is responsible for
preventing plant diseases or insect pests
from entering the United States, as well
as, the spread of pests not widely
distributed in the United States, and
eradicating those imported when
eradication is feasible. The Plant
Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 7701 et seq.),
authorizes the Department to carry out
this mission. In addition to its mission,
APHIS provides export certification
services to ensure other countries that
the plants and plant products they are
receiving from the United States are free
of plant diseases and insect pests.
Need and Use of the Information: The
accreditation process requires the use of
several information activities to ensure
that nongovernment facilities applying
for accreditation processes the necessary
qualifications. APHIS will collect
information for applications submitted
by operator/owner of a non-government
facility seeking accreditation to conduct
laboratory testing or phytosanitary
inspection. The application should
contain the legal name and full address
of the facility, the name, address,
telephone and fax numbers of the
facility’s operator, a description of the
facility, and a description of the specific
laboratory testing or phytosanitary
inspection services for which the
facility is seeking accreditation. If these
activities are not conducted properly,
APHIS export certification program
would be compromised, causing a
disruption in plant and plant product
exports that could prove financially
damaging to U.S. exporters.

Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service
Title: South American Cactus Moth;
Quarantine and Regulations.
OMB Control Number: 0579–0337.
Summary of Collection: Under the
Plant Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 7701—et
seq.), 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. The Animal
and Plant Health Inspection Service
(APHIS) regulations, ‘‘Subpart-South
American Cactus Moth’’ (7 CFR part
301.55 through 301.55–9), restrict the
interstate movement of regulated
articles from quarantined areas into or
through non-quarantined areas within
the United States.
Need and Use of the Information:
APHIS will collect information using
limited permits, Federal certificates, and
compliance agreements. The limited
permits are used to authorize movement
of regulated articles that are not
certifiable to specified destination for
processing, treatment, or utilization.
Federal certificates are used for
domestic movement of treated articles
relating to quarantines, and are issued
for regulated articles when an inspector
or other person authorized to issue
certificates finds that the articles have
met the conditions of the regulations
and may be safely moved interstate
without further restrictions. Compliance
agreements are provided for the
convenience of persons who are
involved in the growing, handling, or
moving of regulated articles from
quarantined areas. Without this
information, APHIS could not provide
an effective domestic quarantine
program to prevent the artificial spread
of the South American cactus moth
within the United States.

Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service
Title: Johne’s Disease in Domestic
Animals.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
21:10 Oct 29, 2020
Jkt 253001
OMB Control Number: 0579–0338.
Summary of Collection: The Animal
Health Protection Act of 2002 is the
primary Federal law governing the
protection of animal health. The law
gives the Secretary of Agriculture broad
authority to detect, control, or eradicate
pests or diseases of livestock or poultry.
The regulations in 9 CFR part 80 pertain
specifically to the interstate movement
of domestic animals that are positive to
an official test for Johne’s disease. These
regulations provide that cattle, sheep,
goats, and other domestic animals that
are positive to an official test for Johne’s
disease may generally be moved
interstate only to a recognized
slaughtering establishment or to an
approved livestock facility for sale to
such an establishment. However, they
may also be moved for purposes other
than slaughter under certain conditions.
Moving Johne’s-positive livestock
interstate for slaughter or for other
purposes without increasing the risk of
disease spread requires a movement
permit or an owner-shipper statement,
official ear tags, and a permission to
move request. Permission may also be
sought, in writing, for movement of
animals that do not have a permit,
owner-shipper statement, or ear tags.
Need and Use of the Information:
Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service (APHIS) will collect information
using form VS 1–27, Permit for
Movement of Restricted Animals,
Official Ear Tags, and Request for
Permission to Move. APHIS will collect
the following information from formVS–
127: (1) The number of animals to be
moved; (2) the species of the animals;
(3) the points of origin and destination,
and (4) the names and addresses of the
consignor and the consignee. Failing to
collect this information would greatly
hinder the control of Johne’s disease
and possible lead to increased
prevalence.
Description of Respondents: Business
or other for-profit; Accredited
