Forest Service
Title: Qualified Product List for Wild

Summary of Collection: The Forest
Service and cooperating wildland
firefighting agencies need adequate
types and quantities of qualified fire
chemical products available to
accomplish fire management activities
as safely and effectively as possible. To
accomplish this objective, the Agency
evaluates and pre-approves commercial
wildland firefighting chemicals. The
Agency is required to submit the
formulations to the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service and National Oceanic
Atmospheric Administration Fisheries
during the evaluation process. All
products must meet the requirements of

added to the Qualified Products List
(QPL) for the appropriate product type.
All Federal procurements of wildland
fire chemicals are made from these lists.

to ensure that products do not pose a
hazard for laboratory personnel during
the evaluation prior to purchase and
use. This information collection and the
product evaluation must be conducted

Agency can solicit and award contracts
in a timely manner to provide
firefighters with safe and effective
wildland fire chemical products.

Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service
Title: Conditions for Payment of
Avian Influenza Indemnity Claims.
OMB Control Number: 0579–0440.
Summary of Collection: The Animal
Health Protection Act of 2002 (7 U.S.C.
8301 et seq.) 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 Secretary may
also prohibit or restrict import or export
of any animal or related material if
necessary to prevent the spread of any
livestock or poultry pest or disease. U.S.
animal health policy calls for
elimination of the avian influenza virus
(both highly pathogenic and low
pathogenicity strains) when found
through depopulation (i.e., euthanasia
and disposal) of affected poultry. The
Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service (APHIS) works with State and
local animal health officials to
euthanize poultry, clean and disinfect
premises and equipment, and test for
elimination of the virus to ensure that
farms can be safely restocked.
Need and Use of the Information:
APHIS Veterinary Services assists State
and local animal health officials and
poultry producers with creating and
applying biosecurity and response
plans, developing and enforcing flock
plans and compliance agreements,
preparing and processing appraisal and
indemnity claims and worksheets,
developing restocking and testing
agreements, and submitting reports.
