## National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS)

*Title:*                     Aquaculture Surveys—Substantive Change.                

*OMB Control Number:*                     0535-0150.                

*Summary of Collection:*                     General authority for these data collection activities is granted under U.S. Code Title 7, Section 2204 which specifies that “The Secretary of Agriculture shall procure and preserve all information concerning agriculture which he can obtain . . . by the collection of statistics . . .”. The primary objective of the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) is to provide data users with timely and reliable agricultural production and economic statistics, as well as environmental and specialty agricultural related statistics. To accomplish this objective, NASS relies on the use of diverse surveys that show changes within the farming industry over time.                

The National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) is seeking approval for this substantive change request to the aquaculture surveys information collection request. NASS seeks approval to conduct a Pennsylvania Aquaculture Census that is funded by a cooperative agreement between the National Agricultural Statistics Service (USDA-NASS) and the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture (PDA). NASS will conduct a census of the Pennsylvania aquaculture producers and provide Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture and the public with a summary report of all sales specifying the amount or weight of each species (except trout) sold and gross receipts. Pennsylvania trout sales data are accounted for in the NASS' Trout Production report. Additional burden is estimated at 64 hours over 175 respondents. One response per year is needed for Pennsylvania's aquaculture census.

*Need and Use of the Information:*                     Act 98 of the 1998 Pennsylvania General Assembly Amended Title 3 (Agriculture) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes mentions the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture cooperates with NASS for a survey of Pennsylvania's aquacultural industry.                

*Description of Respondents:*                     Farms: Individuals or households.                

*Number of Respondents:*                     2,450.                

*Frequency of Responses:*                     Once per year.                

*Total Burden Hours:*                     796.
