    Title: Specialty Crops Inspection Division Order Forms.
    OMB Control Number: 0581-NEW.
    Summary of Collection: The Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 as 
amended, (7 U.S.C. 1621-1627) et seq. authorizes the Secretary to 
inspect, certify, and identify the class, quantity, quality, and 
condition of agricultural products when shipped or received in 
interstate commerce, and collect such fees as reasonable to cover the 
cost of services rendered. The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) is 
authorized to perform inspections, on a user fee basis and does so 
through the Specialty Crops Inspection Division (SCI). SCI provides a 
nationwide inspection, grading, and auditing service for fresh and 
processed fruits, vegetables and other products to shippers, importers, 
processors, sellers, buyers, and other financially interested parties.
    Need and Use of the Information: AMS will use forms FV-380 ``Order 
Form for SCI Division Inspection Equipment and Miscellaneous Items;'' 
FV-357 ``Notification of Entry'' and FV-387 ``SCI Alternate Payment 
Application'' to collect necessary information. Such information 
includes; the name and location of the person or company requesting 
services, the type and location of the product to be inspected, the 
type of inspection being requested, information that will identify the 
product or type and scope of audit requested. This information is 
needed to carry out the inspection, grading, or auditing services.

State, Local and Tribal Government.
    Number of Respondents: 49,842.

    Summary of Collection: The Agricultural Marketing Service, Dairy 
Grading Branch, dairy grading program is a voluntary user fee program 
authorized under the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 (7 U.S.C. 
1621). The regulations governing inspection and grading services of 
manufactured or processed dairy products are contained in 7 CFR part 
58. International markets are increasing for U.S. dairy products. Forms 
will provide a format for exporters to provide information to the Dairy 
Grading Branch on consignments they wish to export so that the Dairy 
Grading Branch can issue the proper health certificate with the 
information required by the importing country.
    Need and Use of the Information: Importing countries are requiring 
certification as to production methods and sources of raw ingredients 
for dairy products. Information will be gathered using DA-228 ``Request 
for Applicant Number,'' DA-253 European Union Health Certificate 
Request,'' and the Sanitary Certificate Request. The information 
required on the sanitary certificates varies from country to country 
requiring specific forms for each country. Such information includes, 
but not limited to, identity of the importer and exporter; consignment 
specifics and border entry point at the country of destination. 
Information gathered from the applicants is transferred to the proper 
health certificate, certified by the proper authority and returned to 
the exporter. The collection of the information on the forms is 
necessary for the Dairy Grading Branch to be able to properly complete 
the required export certificate.
    Description of Respondents: Business or other for-profit.
