Title: Customer Data Worksheet Request for SCIMS Record Changes.

OMB Control Number: 0560–0265. Type of Request: Extension of currently approved information collection.

Abstract: The information collection is necessary to effectively monitor critical producer data changes made in the SCIMS at the request of the producer to correct or update their information. The form of AD–2047, ‘‘Customer Data Worksheet Request for SCIMS Record Change’’ , is used to collect the information from the producers to make changes to the information in SCIMS. The necessity to monitor critical producer data changes in the SCIMS database is a direct result of the OMB Circular A–123 Remediation/Corrective Action Plan for County Office Operations which requires effective internal controls to be in place for Federal programs. The FSA team was established and reviewed and documented key controls related to all material producer accounts. FSA also included the analysis on a review of the
SCIMS.

Estimated Average Time to Respond: Public reporting burden for collection of this information is estimated to average .17 hours per response. The average travel time, which is included in the total annual burden, is estimated to be 1 hour per respondent.

Type of Respondents: FSA, NRCS, and RD customers currently residing in
SCIMS.

Estimated Number of Respondents:
45,000.

Estimated Number of Responses per Respondent: 1.15.

Estimated Annual Number of Responses: 45,000.

Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 8,798.

We are requesting comments on all aspects of this information collection and to help us to:

(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 the agency’s estimate of burden, 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, including through the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology.

All comments received in response to this notice, including names and addresses when provided, will be a matter of public record. Comments will be summarized and included in the submission for Office of Management and Budget approval.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :** 

Title: Emerald Ash Borer; Host Material from Canada.

OMB Number: 0579-0319. Type of Request: Extension of approval of an information collection.

Abstract: As authorized by the Plant Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 7701 et seq.) (PPA), the Secretary of Agriculture may prohibit or restrict the importation, entry, exportation, or movement in interstate commerce of any plant, plant product, biological control organism, noxious weed, means of conveyance, or other article if the Secretary determines that the prohibition or restriction is necessary to prevent a plant pest or noxious weed from being introduced into or disseminated within the United States. This authority has been delegated to the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), which administers regulations to implement the PPA.

APHIS regulations in 7 CFR part 319 prohibit or restrict the importation of certain plants and plant products into the United States to prevent the introduction of plant pests. Subpart— Nursery Stock, Plants, Roots, Bulbs, Seeds, and Other Plant Products (7 CFR 319.37 through 319.37-14) restricts, among other things, the importation of living plants, plant parts, and seeds for propagation; and Subpart–Logs, Lumber, and Other Unmanufactured Wood Articles (7 CFR 310.40-1 through 319.40-11) governs the importation of various logs, lumber, and other unmanufactured wood products into the United States. Both subparts contain regulations that restrict or prohibit the importation of emerald ash borer host material from Canada to prevent the introduction and spread of EAB, a destructive wood-boring insect that attacks ash trees, in the United States. These regulations involve information collection activities, including phytosanitary certificates, permit applications, and certificates of inspection.

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 information collection, 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 information collection 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 0.6666 hours per response.

Respondents: Importers of certain articles from Canada; and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.

Estimated annual number of respondents: 6.

Estimated annual number of responses per respondent: 1.

Estimated annual number of

responses: 6.

Estimated total annual burden on respondents: 4 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 28 th day of July 2010.

Kevin Shea Acting Administrator, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service.
