**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :** 

Title: U.S. Origin Health Certificate. OMB Number: 0579-0020. Type of Request: Extension of approval of an information collection.

Abstract: The export of agricultural commodities, including animals and animal products, is a major business in the United States and contributes to a favorable balance of trade. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), Veterinary Services (VS) maintains information regarding the import health requirements of other countries for animals and animal products exported from the United States, as most countries require a certification that our animals are free from specific diseases and show no clinical evidence of disease. This certification must carry the USDA seal and be endorsed by an APHIS, APHIS accredited, or State veterinarian. VS Forms 17-140/17-140A, U.S. Origin Health Certificate/Continuation Sheet, and VS Form 17-145, U.S. Origin Health Certificate for the Export of Horses from the United Sates to Canada, are used to meet the certification requirements of other countries. In addition, other information collection activities used for the export of animals and animal products may include: Environmental certification for export facilities; notarized statements; documentation of undue hardship for animals departing from a specific export location; requests regarding approval or withdrawal of approval of export facilities; and recordkeeping for modification of rail stanchions on vessels.

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 information collection, 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 information collection 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 reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 0.4999639 hours per response.

Respondents: Accredited veterinarians; sheep, goat, and horse owners/facility operators; exporters; and owners of ocean vessels used to export livestock from the United States.

Estimated annual number of respondents: 2,056.

Estimated annual number of responses per respondent: 13.5.

Estimated annual number of
responses: 27,756.

Estimated total annual burden on respondents: 13,877 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 for OMB approval. All comments will also become a matter of public record.

Done in Washington, DC, this 4 th day of August 2010.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  Title: Importation of Live Swine, Pork, and Pork Products from Certain Regions Free of Classical Swine Fever in Chile and Mexico.

OMB Number: 0579-0230. Type of Request: Revision and extension of approval of an information collection.

Abstract: Under the Animal Health Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 8301 et seq .), the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) of the United States Department of Agriculture 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. The regulations are contained in title 9, parts 92 through 98, of the Code of Federal Regulations.

Part 94 allows the importation, subject to certain conditions, of live swine, pork, and pork products from certain regions that are free of classical swine fever (CSF) in Chile and Mexico to prevent the introduction of CSF into the United States. These conditions involve information collection activities, including certificates, cooperative agreements, and cooperative service agreements.

We are asking the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to approve our use of these information collection activities for an additional 3
years.

This information collection includes information collection requirements approved under OMB control numbers 0579-0230, Importation of Live Swine, Pork, and Pork Products From Eight Mexican States; 0579-0235, Classical Swine Fever Status of Chile; and 0579- 0333, Importation of Pork and Pork Products. After OMB approves and combines the burden for the three collections under a single collection, Importation of Live Swine, Pork, and Pork Products from Certain Regions Free of Classical Swine Fever in Chile and Mexico (0579-0230), the Department will retire numbers 0579-0235 and
0579-0333.

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 reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 1 hour per response.

Respondents: Federal animal health officials of the Governments of Chile and Mexico.

Estimated annual number of respondents: 11

Estimated annual number of responses per respondent: 7.82

Estimated annual number of
responses: 86.

Estimated total annual burden on respondents: 86 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 for OMB approval. All comments will also become a matter of public record. Done in Washington, DC, this 4th day of August 2010. Gregory Parham Acting Administrator, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service.
