(OMB), 

OIRA_Submission@OMB.EOP.GOV or

Animal and Plant Health Inspection 

Service 

Title: Importation of Unshu Oranges. 

OMB Control Number: 0579–0173. 

Summary of Collection: The Plant 

Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 7701–7772) 

authorizes the Secretary of Agriculture 

to restrict the importation, entry or 

interstate movement of plants, plant 

products, and other articles to prevent 

the introduction of plant pest in the 

United States. The regulations in 

‘‘Subpart-Citrus Fruit’’ (7 CFR 319.28) 

allow the importation of unshu oranges 

from Kyushu Island and Honshu Island, 

Japan, into the United States under 

certain conditions. A certificate must 

accompany the unshu oranges from the 

Japanese plant protection service 

certifying that the fruit is apparently 

free of citrus canker. 

Need and Use of the Information: The 

Animal and Plant Health Inspection 

(APHIS) will collect information using 

form PPQ 203, Foreign Site Certificate of 

Inspection and/or Treatment, PPQ 587, 

Application for Permit to Import Plants 

or Plant Products and box labeling. The 

information from the forms will be used 

to certify that unshu oranges from Japan 

are free of citrus canker and to also 

ensure that the oranges are not imported 

into citrus-producing areas of the 

United States such as Florida and 

California. Failing to collect this 

information would cripple APHIS’ 

ability to ensure that Unshu oranges 

from Japan are not carrying citrus 

canker. 

Description of Respondents: Business 

or other for-profit; State, Local or Tribal 

Government. 

Number of Respondents: 23. 

Frequency of Responses: Reporting: 

On occasion. 

Total Burden Hours: 5,535. 

Animal and Plant Health Inspection 

Service 

Title: Citrus Greening and Asian 

Citrus Psylid; Quarantine and Interstate 

Movement Regulations. 

OMB Control Number: 0579–0363. 

Summary of Collection: The Plant 

Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 7701 et seq.) 

authorizes the Secretary of Agriculture 

either independently or in cooperation 

with the States, to carry out operations 

or measures to detect, eradicate, 

suppress, control, prevent, or retard the 

spread of plant pests (such as citrus 

canker) new or widely distributed 

throughout the United States. The 

Animal and Plant Health Inspection 

Service (APHIS) amended the ‘‘Domestic 

Quarantine Notices’’ in 7 CFR part 301 

by adding a new subpart, ‘‘Citrus 

Greening and Asian Citrus Psylid 

(ACP)’’ (§§ 301.76 through 301.76–11). 

Citrus greening, also known as 

Huanglonghing disease of citrus, is 

considered to be one of the most serious 

citrus diseases in the world. 

Need and Use of the Information: 

APHIS will collect information using 

various forms to address the risk 

associated with the interstate movement 

of citrus nursery stock and other 

regulated articles from areas 

quarantined for citrus greening. Failing 

to collect this information could cause 

a severe economic loss to the citrus 

industry. 

Description of Respondents: Business 

or other for-profit. 

Number of Respondents: 116. 

Frequency of Responses: 

Recordkeeping; Reporting: On occasion. 

Total Burden Hours: 504.
