80762 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 240 / Monday, December 14, 2020 / Notices 

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 AHPA is contained in Title X, 

Subtitle E, Sections 10401–18 of Public 

Law 107–171, dated May 13, 2002, the 

Farm Security and Rural Investment Act 

of 2002. Disease prevention is the most 

effective method to maintain a healthy 

animal population and for enhancing 

the United States’ ability to compete in 

the world market of animal and animal 

product trade. The Animal and Plant 

Health Inspection Service (APHIS) 

regulates the importation of animals and 

animal products into the United States 

to guard against the introduction of 

animal diseases not present or prevalent 

here. 

Need and Use of the Information: 

APHIS will collect information using an 

Application for Import or in Transit 

Permit, concerning the origin and 

history of the items destined for 

importation into the United States. 

APHIS will also collect information to 

ensure that swine, pork and pork 

products, and swine semen pose a 

negligible risk of introducing exotic 

swine diseases into the United States. A 

Declaration of Importation form is also 

used to collection information in this 

collection. Collecting this information 

less frequently or failing to collect it 

would increase the chances of CSF and 

other swine diseases being introduced 

into the United States.
