OMB Control Number: 0579–0476. Summary of Collection: The Animal Health Protection Act (AHPA) of 2002 governs the protection of animal health and it provides the Secretary of Agriculture broad authority to detect, control, or eradicate pests or diseases of agricultural animals and animal products. Under section 8219 of the Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002, the USDA may also collaborate and coordinate with the Department of Health and Human Services for the surveillance of zoonoses disease. Further, collection and dissemination of animal and poultry health data and information is mandated by 7 U.S.C. 391 and 21 U.S.C. 119. To better meet its reporting requirements about emerging diseases to the OIE, APHIS is interested in collecting information as to the detection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS–CoV–2) in animals. To accomplish this, APHIS will distribute a request for information to U.S. laboratories engaged in the testing of animals for SARS–CoV–2, develop a questionnaire in NAHRS, and request that State animal health officials and U.S. laboratories provide SARS– CoV–2 animal testing data on a monthly basis. Need and Use of the Information: Collection, analysis, and dissemination of animal and poultry health information is consistent with APHIS’s mission of protecting and improving American agriculture’s productivity and competitiveness. APHIS uses the National Animal Health Reporting System (NAHRS) for reporting and tracking the emergence, prevalence, epidemiology, and economic importance of diseases in livestock, poultry, and other animals. The system facilitates standardization of disease information throughout the United States, provides a central point for the collection of national data, and assists APHIS in meeting its animal disease reporting obligations to the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE). Description of Respondents: State animal scientists, U.S. laboratory personnel, and veterinarians. Number of Respondents: 77. Frequency of Responses: Reporting: Monthly.
