Food and Nutrition Service 

Title: Best Practices in Disaster 

Supplemental Nutrition Assistance 

Program (D–SNAP) Operations and 

Planning. 

OMB Control Number: 0584–NEW. 

Summary of Collection: The Food and 

Nutrition Act of 2008, as amended in 

2014, provides the legislative authority 

for the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s 

(USDA) Food and Nutrition Service 

(FNS) to administer the Supplemental 

Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). 

Section 17 of the Food and Nutrition 

Act of 2008 provides FNS the authority 

to conduct research to help improve the 

administration and effectiveness of 

SNAP. 

Need and Use of the Information: The 

primary purpose of this voluntary, onetime data collection is to identify best 

practices in D–SNAP planning and 

operations from across the country and 

for a variety of disaster types. FNS seeks 

to better understand best practices in D– 

SNAP planning and operations across 

disaster types, administrative contexts, 

and geographic locations. This study 

will culminate in a written report 

describing D–SNAP operations and 

planning, including best practices, 

lessons learned, and challenges, in the 

five (5) study States for ten (10) recent 

D–SNAPs. FNS will use the findings 

from the study to inform and update 

guidance and technical assistance to 

State agencies. State agencies may also 

use the study findings to improve their 

D–SNAP planning and operations.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Emergency Management 

Response System. 

OMB Control Number: 0579–0071. 

Type of Request: Revision to and 

extension of approval of an information 

collection. 

Abstract: Under the Animal Health 

Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 8301 et seq.), 

the Animal and Plant Health Inspection 

Service (APHIS) of the U.S. Department 

of Agriculture is authorized, among 

other things, to protect the health of 

U.S. livestock and poultry populations 

by preventing the introduction and 

interstate spread of diseases and pests of 

livestock and by eradicating such 

diseases from the United States when 

feasible. 

The Emergency Management 

Response System (EMRS) is a web-based 

system that helps APHIS manage and 

investigate potential incidents of foreign 

animal diseases in the United States. 

When a potential foreign animal 

disease incident is reported, APHIS or 

State animal health officials dispatch a 

foreign animal disease veterinary 

diagnostician to the premises of the 

reported incident to conduct an 

investigation. The diagnostician obtains 

vital epidemiological data by 

conducting field investigations, 

including sample collection, and by 

interviewing the owner or manager of 

the premises being investigated. These 

important data, submitted electronically 

by the diagnostician into EMRS, include 

such items as the purpose of the 

diagnostician’s visit and suspected 

disease, type of operation on the 

premises, the number and type of 

animals on the premises, the number of 

sick or dead animals on the premises, 

the results of physical examinations of 

affected animals and necropsy 

examinations, vaccination information 

on the animals in the herd or flock, 

biosecurity practices at the site, whether 

any animals were recently moved out of 

the herd or flock, whether any new 

animals were recently introduced into 

the herd or flock, the number and kinds 

of test samples taken, and detailed 

geographic data concerning the 

premises location. EMRS allows these 

epidemiological and diagnostic data to 

be documented and transmitted more 

efficiently. 

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 

burden for this collection of information 

is estimated to average 1 hour per 

response. 

Respondents: Owners or operators of 

livestock and poultry facilities and State 

animal health officials. 

Estimated annual number of 

respondents: 158. 

Estimated annual number of 

responses per respondent: 156. 

Estimated annual number of 

responses: 24,703. 

Estimated total annual burden on 

respondents: 24,703 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 2nd day of 

June 2021.

Acting Administrator, Animal and Plant 

Health Inspection Service.
