SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Importation of Peppers from the 

Republic of Korea. 

OMB Control Number: 0579–0282. 

Type of Request: Revision to and 

extension of approval of an information 

collection. 

Abstract: The Plant Protection Act 

(PPA, 7 U.S.C. 7701 et seq.) authorizes 

the Secretary of Agriculture to restrict 

the importation, entry, or interstate 

movement of plants, plant products, and 

other articles to prevent the 

introduction of plant pests into the 

United States or their dissemination 

within the United States. Regulations 

authorized by the PPA concerning the 

importation of fruits and vegetables into 

the United States from certain parts of 

the world are contained in ‘‘Subpart— 

Fruits and Vegetables’’ (7 CFR 319.56– 

1 through 319.56–83). 

In accordance with § 319.56–42, 

peppers from the Republic of Korea are 

subject to certain conditions before 

entering the continental United States to 

prevent the introduction of plant pests 

into the United States. The regulations 

include requirements for greenhouse 

registration and inspection by officials 

of the national plant protection 

organization (NPPO) of the Republic of 

Korea, a phytosanitary certificate with a 

declaration by NPPO officials stating the 

peppers were grown in greenhouses in 

accordance with the regulations and 

inspected and found free of the listed 

plant pests, and emergency action 

notifications. 

We are asking the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) to 

approve our use of these information 

collection activities, as described, 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 0.8 hours per 

response. 

Respondents: Businesses and the 

NPPO of the Republic of Korea. 

Estimated annual number of 

respondents: 2. 

Estimated annual number of 

responses per respondent: 11. 

Estimated annual number of 

responses: 21. 

Estimated total annual burden on 

respondents: 17 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, on July 23, 2018.

Administrator, Animal and Plant Health 

Inspection Service.

1The respondent burden was incorrectly 

estimated at 72 hours in the previously published 

60-day Federal Register notice. This mistake is 

corrected in the 30-day FRN. The 72 hours was 

estimated over each year of clearance. However, 

since respondent will incur burden only in 2019 

and 2020, the Census Bureau re-estimates the 

respondent burden over these two years. The 

respondent burden hour is now 217 hours, which 

is obtained by dividing the total estimated hour 

burden with the number of respondents (11,284/ 

52).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

The Census Bureau proposes an 

extension of the Age Search Service 

Program. The Age Search is a service 

provided by the U.S. Census Bureau for 

persons who need official transcripts of 

personal data as proof of age for 

pensions, retirement plans, Medicare, 

and Social Security. The transcripts are 

also used as proof of citizenship to 

obtain passports or to provide evidence 

of family relationship for rights of 

inheritance. The Age Search forms are 

used by the public in order to provide 

the Census Bureau with the necessary 

information to conduct a search of 

historical population decennial census 

records in order to provide the 

requested transcript. The Age Search 

service is self-supporting and is funded 

by the fees collected from the 

individuals requesting the service. 

II. Method of Collection 

The Form BC–600, Application for 

Search of Census Records, is a paper 

public-use form that is submitted by 

applicants requesting information from 

the decennial census records. This 

application form is available online in 

PDF format for individuals to download 

and complete. Applicants must enclose 

the appropriate fee by check or money 

order with the completed and signed 

Form BC–600 or BC–600(SP) and return 

by mail to the U.S. Census Bureau, Post 

Office Box 1545, Jeffersonville, Indiana 

47131. 

The Form BC–649(L), which is called 

a Not Found Letter, advises the 

applicant that the search for information 

from the census records was 

unsuccessful. The BC–658(L) is sent to 

the applicant when insufficient 

information has been received on which 

to base a search of the census records. 

These two forms request additional 

information from the applicant to aid in 

the search of census records. 

III. Data 

OMB Control Number: 0607–0117. 

Form Numbers: BC–600, BC–600(SP), 

BC–649(L), and BC–658(L). 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Affected Public: Individuals or 

households.

2,885 total respondents. 

BC–600 2,426 respondents.

BC–658(L) 10 respondents. 

Estimated Time per Response: 

BC–600 12 minutes. 

BC–649(L) 6 minutes. 

BC–658(L) 6 minutes. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: 531 hours.

$167,394. The Age Search processing 

fee is $65.00 per case. An additional

day is also available. It is expected that 

485 individuals will request the 

expedited service. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. 

Legal Authority: Title 13 U.S.C., 

section 8. 

IV. Request for Comments

the proposed collection of information 

is necessary for the proper performance 

of the functions of the agency, including
