SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Importation of Longan From 

Taiwan. 

OMB Control Number: 0579–0351. 

Type of Request: 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 319.56–71). 

Under these regulations, longan from 

Taiwan are subject to certain conditions 

before entering the United States to 

ensure that exotic plant pests are not 

introduced into the United States. The 

regulations require the use of cold 

treatment and special port-of-arrival 

inspection procedures for certain 

quarantine pests. In addition, the fruit 

must be accompanied by a 

phytosanitary certificate stating that the 

fruit was inspected and found to be free 

of certain pests, and the individual 

cartons or boxes in which the longan are 

shipped must be stamped or printed 

with a statement prohibiting their 

importation into or distribution within 

the State of Florida. 

Since the last extension of approval 

for these information collection 

activities, we realized that we counted 

the estimated annual number of 

responses per respondent under the 

estimated annual number of 

respondents. We have corrected both 

estimates in this document. 

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 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 

0.0018 hours per response. 

Respondents: National plant 

protection organization of Taiwan and 

importers of longan. 

Estimated annual number of 

respondents: 2. 

Estimated annual number of 

responses per respondent: 6,009. 

Estimated annual number of 

responses: 12,018. 

Estimated total annual burden on 

respondents: 22 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 24th day of 

October 2014.
