SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Pale Cyst Nematode. 

OMB Control Number: 0579–0322. 

Type of Request: Revision to and 

extension of approval of an information 

collection. 

Abstract: As authorized by the Plant 

Protection Act (PPA, 7 U.S.C. 7701 et 

seq.), the Secretary of Agriculture, either 

independently or in cooperation with 

States, may carry out operations or 

measures to detect, eradicate, suppress, 

control, prevent, or retard the spread of 

plant pests that are new to or not widely 

distributed within the United States. 

This authority has been delegated to the 

Animal and Plant Health Inspection 

Service (APHIS) of the U.S. Department 

of Agriculture, which administers 

regulations to implement the PPA. 

In accordance with the regulations in 

‘‘Subpart–Pale Cyst Nematode’’ (7 CFR 

301.86 through 301.86–9), APHIS 

restricts the interstate movement of 

certain articles to help prevent the 

artificial spread of pale cyst nematode, 

a major pest of potato crops in cooltemperature areas, to noninfested areas 

of the United States. The regulations 

contain requirements for the interstate 

movement of regulated articles and 

involve information collection 

activities, including certificates, 

permits, and compliance agreements. 

For this collection, we are also adding 

self-certification as an additional 

information collection activity. 

Since the last approval of this 

collection, the areas regulated for pale 

cyst nematode have decreased. The 

decrease in regulated areas and the 

additional information collection 

activity have contributed to an overall 

decrease by 39 of the estimated annual 

number of respondents and an increase 

by 41 hours in the estimated total 

annual burden on respondents. 

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 

reporting burden for this collection of 

information is estimated to average 0.2 

hours per response. 

Respondents: U.S. potato producers, 

packers, processors, and handlers of 

potatoes. 

Estimated annual number of 

respondents: 113. 

Estimated annual number of 

responses per respondent: 16. 

Estimated annual number of 

responses: 1,860. 

Estimated total annual burden on 

respondents: 383 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 31st day of 

December 2014. 

Kevin Shea, 

Administrator, Animal and Plant Health 

Inspection Service.
