Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza is
Considered to Exist and Exportation of
Poultry and Hatching Eggs.
OMB Control Number: 0579–0328.
Type of Request: Extension of
approval of an information collection.
Abstract: Under the Animal Health
Protection Act (the Act, 7 U.S.C. 8301 et
seq.), the U.S. Department of
Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health
Inspection Service (APHIS) is
authorized, among other things, to
prohibit or restrict the importation and
interstate movement of animals and
animal products to prevent the
introduction into and dissemination
within the United States of livestock
diseases and pests. To carry out this
mission, APHIS regulates the
importation of animals and animal
products into the United States. In
addition, under the Act, APHIS collects
information and conducts inspections to
ensure that poultry and hatching eggs
exported from the United States are free
of communicable diseases.
The regulations in 9 CFR 91.3

requirements for the export of poultry
and hatching eggs from the United
States to other countries. Certification
that the poultry and hatching eggs are
free of diseases is required. In addition,
APHIS requires owners and exporters of
poultry and hatching eggs to provide

carcasses, meat, parts or products of
carcasses, and eggs (other than hatching
eggs) of poultry, game birds, or other
birds to prevent the introduction of
Newcastle disease (ND) and highly
pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) into
the United States. Various conditions
for the importation of table eggs from
regions where ND and HPAI exists,
including Mexico, apply and involve
information collection activities. APHIS
also requires certain information for the
importation of table eggs that includes
a certificate for table eggs from ND and
HPAI affected regions and a government
seal issued by the veterinarian
accredited by the national government
who signed the certificate.
We are asking the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) to
approve our use of these information
collection activities for an additional 3
years.
The purpose of this notice is to solicit
comments from the public (as well as
affected agencies) concerning our
information collection. These comments
will help us:
(1) Evaluate whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of our
estimate of the burden of the collection
of information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, through use, as
appropriate, of automated, electronic,
mechanical, and other collection
technologies; e.g., permitting electronic
submission of responses.
Estimate of burden: The public
burden for this collection of information
is estimated to average 0.5 hours per
response.
Respondents: Owners of poultry and
hatching egg operations, exporters, and
national animal health authorities.
Estimated annual number of
respondents: 201.
Estimated annual number of
responses per respondent: 34.
Estimated annual number of
responses: 6,803.
Estimated total annual burden on
respondents: 3,405 hours. (Due to
averaging, the total annual burden hours
may not equal the product of the annual
number of responses multiplied by the
reporting burden per response.)
All responses to this notice will be
summarized and included in the request
