Title: Importation of Mangoes from 

the Philippines. 

OMB Control Number: 0579–0172. 

Summary of Collection: Under the 

Plant Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 7711– 

7714), the Secretary of Agriculture, 

either independently or in cooperation 

with the States, is authorized to carry 

out operations or measures to detect, 

eradicate, suppress, control, prevent, or 

retard the spread of plant pests new to 

the United States or not know to be 

widely distributed throughout the 

United States. The regulations in 

‘‘Subpart—Fruits and Vegetables’’ (7 

CFR 319.56 through 319.56–48) allow 

the importation of mangoes from 

Guimaras Island in the Republic of the 

Philippines into the United States under 

certain conditions. The regulations 

require the use of box marking to 

indicate the origin of the fruit, 

phytosanitary certificate to confirm that 

the fruit has been grown and treated in 

accordance with the regulations and a 

trust fund agreement between the 

Republic of the Philippines Department 

of Agriculture and the U.S. Department 

of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant 

Health Inspection Service (APHIS) to 

cover the Agency’s participation in the 

treatment and inspection activities in 

the Philippines that are required for the 

importation of mangoes. 

Need and use of the information: 

APHIS will collect information from a 

variety of individuals who are involved 

in growing, packing, handling, 

transporting and exporting plants and 

plant products. The information APHIS 

collects serves as the supporting 

documentation for issuing PPQ forms 

and documents required to authorize 

release of restricted products, and allow 

movement of regulated products. The 

information APHIS collects is vital to 

helping ensure that injurious plant 

diseases and insect pest are not 

imported and do not spread into or 

within the United States.

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request 

August 19, 2010. 

The Department of Agriculture has 

submitted the following information 

collection requirement(s) to OMB for 

review and clearance under the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 

Public Law 104–13. Comments 

regarding (a) 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; 

(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate 

of burden including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; (c) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; (d) ways to 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 should be addressed to: Desk 

Officer for Agriculture, Office of 

Information and Regulatory Affairs, 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB), OIRA_Submission@ 

OMB.EOP.GOV or fax (202) 395–5806 

and to Departmental Clearance Office, 

USDA, OCIO, Mail Stop 7602, 

Washington, DC 20250–7602. 

Comments regarding these information 

collections are best assured of having 

their full effect if received within 30 

days of this notification. Copies of the 

submission(s) may be obtained by 

calling (202) 720–8958. 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor a collection of information 

unless the collection of information 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number and the agency informs 

potential persons who are to respond to 

the collection of information that such 

persons are not required to respond to 

the collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number. 

Food and Nutrition Service 

Title: Evaluation of the Underserved 

Elderly and Working Poor in the 

Supplemental Nutrition Assistance 

Program (SNAP) FY 2009 Pilots. 

OMB Control Number: 0584–NEW. 

Summary of Collection: The Omnibus 

Appropriations Act of 2009 (Pub. L. 

118–8) provided $4.5 million for the 

USDA Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) 

to pilot and evaluate a range of 

approaches for expanding access to 

Supplemental Nutrition Assistance 

Program (SNAP) among two key 

underserved populations—eligible 

households with elderly members and 

eligible households with adult members 

who are working or are looking for work 

(working poor households). According 

to the latest (2007) U.S. Department of 

Agriculture estimates, less than onethird of elderly (age 60 and older) 

persons who are eligible for SNAP 

actually participate in the program. Less 

than three-fifths of persons in eligible 

households with someone working 

participate in the program. These low 

participation rates suggest that many 

elderly or working poor people who 

need SNAP are not receiving its 

assistance. Without SNAP, elderly 

individuals may not be able to meet 

their nutritional needs or may forgo 

medicine for food; working people may 

not be able to adequately feed their 

families, despite their work efforts. 

Need and Use of the Information: FNS 

has funded six State demonstration 

projects to increase SNAP access to 

eligible households with either person 

over age 60 or with adult members who 

are working or looking for work. FNS is 

conducting an evaluation of the 

demonstration projects. By evaluating 

these demonstrations, FNS will be able 

to advise Federal policymakers and 

State administrators on the best 

approaches to increasing SNAP access 

for those two populations. The 

evaluation will describe each 

demonstration project and the 

implementation process; assess the 

impact on SNAP participation in the 

target groups, application barriers, client 

satisfaction, household benefits, 

administrative costs and payment 

errors; and assess the sustainability and 

replicability of each demonstration 

project. FNS will collect and analyze 

administrative data in each 

demonstration State and will conduct 

site visits to each demonstration project 

and conduct focus groups with SNAP 

applicants. 

Description of Respondents: 

Individuals or households. 

Number of Respondents: 1,200.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title: 7

Type of Request: Extension of a

Abstract: In order to facilitate the 

programmatic interest of the RE Act, 

and, in order to assure that loans made 

or guaranteed by the Agency are 

adequately secured, the Agency, as a 

secured lender, has established certain 

forms for materials, equipment and 

construction of electric and 

telecommunications systems. The use of 

standard forms, construction contracts, 

and procurement procedures helps 

assure the Agency that appropriate 

standards and specifications are 

maintained, the Agency’s loan security 

is not adversely affected; and the loan 

and loan guarantee funds are used 

effectively and for the intended 

purposes. 

Over the past three years, the Agency 

has undertaken a comprehensive review 

of its Telecommunications Program 

contracts. The purpose of this 

undertaking is to improve customer 

service to the Agency’s rural borrowers 

with a more efficient and effective 

means to complete a contract 

transaction as well as improve the 

internal efficiency of processing 

contracts. The anticipated outcome 

when the contract revision process is 

completed is that the paperwork burden 

will not increase and may be reduced. 

A total of 25 forms are under review and 

the new contracts will be released as 

they are completed. 

Estimate of Burden: Public reporting 

burden for this collection of information 

is estimated to average 2 hours per 

response. 

Respondents: Business or other forprofit and non-profit institutions. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

513. 

Estimated Number of Responses per 

Respondent: 10. 

Estimate Total Annual Burden on 

Respondents: 10,592 hours. 

Copies of this information collection 

can be obtained from MaryPat Daskal,

Analysis, Rural Utilities Service (202) 

720–7853. 

Comments are invited on (a) 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; (b) the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of burden including 

the validity of the methodology and 

assumption used; (c) ways to enhance 

the quality, utility and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and (d) 

ways to 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 on 

other forms of information technology. 

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.
