SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: National Animal Health 

Reporting System (NAHRS). 

OMB Number: 0579–0299. 

Type of Request: Extension of 

approval of an information collection. 

Abstract: Under the Animal Health 

Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 8301 et seq.), 

the Animal Plant Health Inspection 

Service (APHIS) is authorized, among 

other things, to prohibit or restrict the 

importation and interstate movement of 

animals and other articles to prevent the 

introduction and interstate spread of 

livestock diseases and to eradicate such 

diseases from the United States when 

feasible. In connection with this 

mission, APHIS operates the National 

Animal Health Reporting System 

(NAHRS), which collects, on a national 

basis, data monthly from State 

veterinarians on the presence or absence 

of diseases of interest to the World 

Organization for Animal Health (OIE). 

As a member country of OIE, the 

United States must submit reports to the 

OIE on the status of certain diseases in 

specific livestock, poultry, and 

aquaculture species. Reportable diseases 

are diseases that have the potential for 

rapid spread, irrespective of national 

borders, that are of serious 

socioeconomic or public health 

consequence, and that are of major 

importance in the international trade of 

animals and animal products. The 

potential benefits to trade of accurate 

reporting on the health status of the U.S. 

commercial livestock, poultry, and 

aquaculture industries include 

expansion of those industries into new 

export markets, and preservation of 

existing markets through increased 

confidence in quality and disease 

freedom. This data collection is unique 

in terms of the type, quantity, and 

frequency; no other entity is collecting 

and reporting data to the OIE on the 

health status of U.S. livestock, poultry, 

and aquaculture. 

The number of NAHRS reportable 

diseases has increased approximately 

from 120 to 150 diseases in 2012 in part 

due to the expansion of information 

collected on aquaculture diseases. In 

addition, States have expanded their 

laboratory resources through improved 

laboratory information management 

systems, the information collected 

regarding equine infectious anemia has 

been expanded, and increased efforts 

are being made by APHIS to validate the 

information collected from States. 

We are asking the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) to 

approve our use of these information 

collection activities for 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 

reporting burden for this collection of 

information is estimated to average 8 

hours per response. 

Respondents: State animal health 

officials. 

Estimated annual number of 

respondents: 52. 

Estimated annual number of 

responses per respondent: 12. 

Estimated annual number of 

responses: 624. 

Estimated total annual burden on 

respondents: 4,992 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.)
