SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Privacy Act of 1974, as amended (5 

U.S.C. 552a), requires agencies to 

publish in the Federal Register notice of 

new or revised systems of records 

maintained by the agency. A system of 

records is a group of any records under 

the control of any agency, from which 

information is retrieved by the name of 

an individual or by some identifying 

number, symbol, or other identifying 

particular assigned to an individual. 

The Animal and Plant Health 

Inspection Service (APHIS) of the U.S. 

Department of Agriculture (USDA) is 

proposing to add a new system of 

records, entitled Phytosanitary 

Certificate Issuance and Tracking (PCIT) 

System, that will be used to maintain 

records of activities conducted by the 

agency pursuant to its mission and 

responsibilities authorized by the Plant 

Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 7701 et seq.). 

Phytosanitary certificates are issued by 

authorized Federal, State, and county 

officials. They certify that consignments 

of plants, plant products, and other 

regulated articles intended for export 

have been inspected and meet the 

phytosanitary import requirements of 

the foreign country to which they are 

destined. There is a user fee charge for 

the inspection and certification services. 

Phytosanitary certificates accompany 

shipments to their foreign destinations 

and are reviewed by officials of the 

foreign plant protection service before 

the commodity is allowed entry into 

their country. U.S. exporters who 

require phytosanitary certificates for 

commodities offered for export must 

apply for them through the PCIT system. 

The PCIT system provides a secure 

mechanism for applicants to provide 

information, including the name, 

address, and telephone number of the 

exporter or exporter’s agent and the 

foreign consignee, which could be 

individuals but, in most cases, are 

companies or organizations. Applicants 

also must provide information about the 

articles to be exported. APHIS needs all 

of this information to evaluate the 

application, schedule and perform 

inspections and other phytosanitary 

activities, and issue phytosanitary
