[Docket No. APHIS–2008–0003] 

Brucellosis in Cattle; State and Area 

Classifications; Texas 

AGENCY: Animal and Plant Health 

Inspection Service, USDA. 

ACTION: Affirmation of interim rule as 

final rule. 

SUMMARY: We are adopting as a final 

rule, without change, an interim rule 

that amended the brucellosis regulations 

concerning the interstate movement of 

cattle by changing the classification of 

Texas from Class A to Class Free. We 

determined that Texas meets the 

standards for Class Free status. The 

interim rule relieved certain restrictions 

on the interstate movement of cattle 

from Texas. 

DATES: Effective on August 25, 2008, we 

are adopting as a final rule the interim 

rule published at 73 FR 6007–6008 on 

February 1, 2008.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Brucellosis is a contagious disease 

affecting animals and humans, caused 

by bacteria of the genus Brucella. 

The brucellosis regulations, contained 

in 9 CFR part 78 (referred to below as 

the regulations), provide a system for 

classifying States or portions of States 

according to the rate of Brucella 

infection present and the general 

effectiveness of a brucellosis control and 

eradication program. The classifications 

are Class Free, Class A, Class B, and 

Class C. States or areas that do not meet 

the minimum standards for Class C are 

required to be placed under Federal 

quarantine. 

In an interim rule 1 effective and 

published in the Federal Register on 

February 1, 2008 (73 FR 6007–6008, 

Docket No. APHIS–2008–0003), we 

amended the regulations by changing 

the classification of the State of Texas 

from Class A to Class Free. That action 

relieved certain restrictions on the 

interstate movement of cattle from 

Texas. 

Comments on the interim rule were 

required to be received on or before 

April 1, 2008. We received one 

comment by that date, from an industry 

organization. The commenter supported 

the action taken in the interim rule to 

classify Texas as a Class Free State. 

Therefore, for the reasons given in the 

interim rule and in this document, we 

are adopting the interim rule as a final 

rule without change. 

This action also affirms the 

information contained in the interim 

rule concerning Executive Order 12866 

and the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 

Executive Orders 12372 and 12988, and 

the Paperwork Reduction Act. 

Further, for this action, the Office of 

Management and Budget has waived its 

review under Executive Order 12866.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On July 30, 2008, a final rule for 

Airspace Docket No. 07–ASO–27, FAA 

Docket No. FAA–2008–0187 was 

published in the Federal Register (73 

FR 44147) to modify area navigation 

route Q–110 and jet route J–73. The 

legal description for J–73 contained an 

error in the radials used to form an 

intersection on the route between the La 

Belle, FL, very high frequency 

omnidirectional range/tactical air 

navigation (VORTAC) aid and the 

Lakeland, FL, VORTAC. The rule 

incorrectly described the point as: 

‘‘* * * INT Labelle 314° and Lakeland, 

FL 162° radials. * * *’’ The correct 

version should read ‘‘* * * INT Labelle 

313° and Lakeland, FL 161° radials. 

* * *’’ This action corrects the error. 

The description of route Q–110 is 

correct as published in the rule.

From Any Country Into the United 

States 

AGENCIES: Customs and Border 

Protection, Department of Homeland 

Security; Department of the Treasury. 

ACTION: Interim rule; solicitation of

SUMMARY: This document sets forth 

interim amendments to title 19 of the 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) that 

prescribe special entry requirements 

applicable to certain softwood lumber 

and softwood lumber products exported 

from any country into the United States. 

The softwood lumber and softwood 

lumber products subject to these interim 

entry requirements are those described 

in section 804(a) within Title VIII 

(Softwood Lumber Act of 2008 or ‘‘the 

Act’’) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as added 

by section 3301 of Title III, Subtitle D, 

of the Food, Conservation, and Energy 

Act of 2008 (Pub. L. 110–246, enacted 

June 18, 2008). Within Title VIII, section 

803 requires the President to establish 

and maintain an importer declaration 

program with respect to the importation 

of certain softwood lumber and 

softwood lumber products and 

prescribes special entry requirements 

whereby importers must submit the 

export price, estimated export charge, if 

any, and an importer declaration with 

the entry summary. There are also new 

recordkeeping requirements applicable 

to certain imports of softwood lumber 

home packages and kits which are 

subject to declaration requirements, but 

which are not subject to the softwood 

lumber importer declaration program of 

section 803 of the Act. These interim 

amendments set forth the procedural 

and documentation requirements 

necessary to implement the entry 

requirements specified in the statute.

Background 

I. Softwood Lumber Act of 2008: 

Importer Declaration Program 

Section 3301, within Title III, Subtitle 

D, of the Food, Conservation, and 

Energy Act of 2008 (Pub. L. 110–246) 

was enacted June 18, 2008, and amends 

the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1202 

et seq.) by adding a new Title VIII, 

entitled the ‘‘Softwood Lumber Act of 

2008’’ (‘‘the Act’’). The Act requires the 

President to establish and maintain an 

importer declaration program with 

respect to the importation of certain 

softwood lumber and softwood lumber 

products and prescribes special entry 

requirements whereby importers must 

provide the export price, estimated 

export charge, if any, and an importer 

declaration with the entry summary 

documentation. The Act also imposes 

new recordkeeping requirements 

applicable to certain imports of 

softwood lumber home packages and 

kits. 

Title VIII is comprised of sections 801 

through 809, which set forth the 

components of the softwood lumber 

importer declaration program. These 

sections, in pertinent part: 

• Define certain terms and phrases 

applicable to the program (section 802). 

• Prescribe entry requirements and 

the establishment of an electronic 

record thereof (section 803). 

• Establish the scope of the program 

and require the importer to retain and 

produce documentation pertaining to 

the entry of certain softwood lumber 

home packages and kits (section 804).
