## Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service

*Title:*                     Importation of Swine Hides, Bird Trophies, and Deer Hides.                

*OMB Control Number:*                     0579-0307.                

*Summary of Collection:*                     The Animal Health Protection Act (AHPA) of 2002 is the primary Federal law governing the protection of animal health. The law gives the Secretary of Agriculture broad authority to detect, control, or eradicate pests or diseases of livestock or poultry. The AHPA is contained in Title X, Subtitle E, Sections 10401-18 of Public Law 107-171, May 13, 2002, the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002. The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) protects the health of the U.S. livestock and poultry population. The regulations in 9 CFR parts 94 and 95 (referred to below as the regulations) prohibit or restrict the importation of specified animal products into the United States to prevent the introduction into the U.S. livestock population of certain contagious animal diseases. Sections 95.16 and 95.17 of the regulations contain, among other things, specific processing and certification requirements for untanned hides and skins and bird trophies.                

*Need and Use of the Information:*                     APHIS will collect information from forms VS 16-28, VS 16-29 and VS 16-78, certificates, and written statements, to ensure that bird trophies and certain animal hides pose a negligible risk of introducing certain contagious, infectious, or communicable animal diseases into the United States. If this information is not collected, it would significantly hinder APHIS's ability to ensure that these commodities pose a minimal risk of introducing foreign animal diseases into the United States.                

*Description of Respondents:*                     Foreign Government; Business or other for-profit.                

*Number of Respondents:*                     167.                

*Frequency of Responses:*                     Reporting; On occasion.                

*Total Burden Hours:*                     471.
