Animal and Plant Health Inspection 

Service 

Title: Customer/Stakeholder 

Satisfaction Surveys 

OMB Control Number: 0579–0339. 

Summary of Collection: Collection 

and dissemination of animal health data 

and information is mandated by 7 

U.S.C. 391, the Animal Industry Act of 

1884, which established the precursor of 

the Animal and Plant Health Inspection 

Service (APHIS), Veterinary Services, 

the Bureau of Animal Industry. The 

collection, analysis and dissemination 

of livestock and poultry health 

information on a national basis are 

consistent with the APHIS mission of 

protecting and improving American 

agriculture’s productivity and 

competitiveness. The National Animal 

Health Monitoring System (NAHMS) 

program relies heavily on producer and 

industry support. The NAHMS Program 

is committed to improving the value of 

studies for producers and industry, 

reducing the burden of these studies on 

respondents, and developing timely 

information of value to the American 

public. As part of this commitment, the 

NAHMS is seeking approval to perform 

customer/stakeholder satisfaction 

surveys for participants of NAHMS 

studies, user of NAHMS information as 

well as recipients of the U.S. Animal 

Health Report. Therefore, NAHMS 

needs to collect this type of feedback 

from producer and other to enhance 

future studies and ensure that the 

informational products are meeting their 

needs. 

Need and Use of the Information: The 

information collected through the 

surveys will be analyzed and used for 

internal program adjustments and to 

tailor future NAHMS studies and 

reports. 

The potential benefit to the industry 

from these surveys is feedback to 

improve the program, laboratory 

services and informational products by 

gathering relevant and timely 

information and opinion on the content 

and method of program or service 

delivery. 

Description of Respondents: Business 

or other for-profit. 

Number of Respondents: 21,300. 

Frequency of Responses: Reporting; 

On occasion. 

Total Burden Hours: 1,610.

Milk for Manufacturing Purposes and 

Its Production and Processing; 

Requirements Recommended for 

Adoption by State Regulatory 

Agencies 

AGENCY: Agricultural Marketing Service, 

USDA. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This document amends the 

recommended manufacturing milk 

requirements (Recommended 

Requirements) by raising the maximum 

allowable somatic cell count in 

producer herd goat milk from 1,000,000 

cells per milliliter to 1,500,000 cells per 

milliliter. This action was initiated at 

the request of the National Association 

of Dairy Regulatory Officials (NADRO) 

and was developed in cooperation with 

NADRO, dairy trade associations, and 

producer groups. This will ensure that 

goat milk can continue to be shipped 

and recognizes that goats have a need 

for different regulatory limits for 

somatic cells than cows. 

DATES: Effective Date: July 21, 2011. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Susan Sausville, Chief, Standardization 

Branch, Dairy Programs, AMS, USDA, 

telephone (202) 720–7473 or e-mail

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the 

authority of the Agricultural Marketing 

Act of 1946, as amended (7 U.S.C. 1621– 

1627), the United States Department of 

Agriculture maintains a set of model 

regulations relating to quality and 

sanitation requirements for the 

production and processing of 

manufacturing grade milk. These 

Recommended Requirements are 

developed by AMS and recommended 

for adoption and enforcement by the 

various States that regulate 

manufacturing grade milk. The purpose 

of the model requirements is to promote

Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 119 / Tuesday, June 21, 2011 / Notices 36079 

uniformity in State dairy laws and 

regulations relating to manufacturing 

grade milk. 

In consultation with representatives 

from NADRO, State regulatory agencies, 

FDA, and dairy industry trade 

associations, the Department prepared 

the Recommended Requirements to 

promote uniformity in State dairy laws 

and regulations for manufacturing grade 

milk. To accommodate changes that 

have occurred in the dairy industry, 

NADRO and various State officials have 

from time to time requested USDA to 

update the Recommended 

Requirements. 

During its July 2009 annual meeting, 

NADRO passed a resolution requesting 

USDA to raise the maximum allowable 

somatic cell count for producer herd 

goat from 1,000,000 cells per milliliter 

to 1,500,000 cells per milliliter to 

provide consistency with the current 

requirements in place for Grade A 

producer herd goat milk. Due to 

inherent differences between cows and 

goats, goat milk with a somatic cell 

count of 1,500,000 million cells per 

milliliter can be produced from a 

healthy, non-mastitic udder and 

therefore, is quality milk. The need for 

a separate standard for goat milk was 

recognized by the National Conference 

on Interstate Milk Shipments (NCIMS) 

and was raised to 1,500,000 million 

cells per milliliter at their 2009 

conference. This change will align the 

Recommended Requirements with the 

Grade A requirements for goat’s milk. 

AMS reviewed this resolution and 

developed a draft that identified the 

changes associated with this request. 

This draft was provided to State 

regulatory officials and dairy trade 

association representatives for informal 

discussion prior to publication in the 

Federal Register. 

The requirements of Executive Order 

13132, Federalism, were considered in 

developing this notice, and it has been 

determined that this action does not 

have substantial effects on the States 

(the relationship between the National 

Government and the States or on the 

distribution of power and 

responsibilities among the various 

levels of government). 

Public Comment 

A Notice of Proposal to Change the 

document, ‘‘Milk for Manufacturing 

Purposes and Its Production and 

Processing; Recommended 

Requirements for Adoption by State 

Regulatory Agencies,’’ was published in 

the Federal Register on October 5, 2010 

(75 FR 61418). The Notice of Proposal 

to Change the document provided for a 

60-day comment period that ended 

December 5, 2010. Two comments were 

received. One from the membership of 

the Other Species Milk Committee of 

the National Conference on Interstate 

Milk Shipments (NCIMS) in support of 

the proposed amendment and one from 

an anonymous source in opposition of 

the amendment which provided no 

scientific justification to support their 

opposition. 

Accordingly, the changes proposed in 

the Milk for Manufacturing Purposes 

and its Production and Processing; 

Recommended Requirements for 

Adoption by State Regulatory Agencies 

are incorporated in the revised 

Recommended Requirements. 

The Recommended Requirements are 

available either from the above address 

or by accessing the information on the 

Internet at the following address: http://
