SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title: Untreated Oranges, Tangerines, and Grapefruit from Mexico 
Transiting the United States to Foreign Countries.
    OMB Control Number: 0579-0303.
    Type of Request: Revision to and extension of approval of an 
information collection.
    Abstract: The Plant Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 7701 et seq.) 
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 pests into or their 
dissemination within the United States. This authority has been 
delegated to the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS).
    The plant quarantine safeguard regulations in 7 CFR part 352 allow 
certain products or articles that are classified as prohibited or 
restricted under other APHIS regulations in title 7 to be moved into or 
through the United States under certain conditions. Such articles 
include fruits and vegetables that are moved into the United States 
for: (1) A temporary stay where unloading or landing is not intended; 
(2) unloading or landing for transshipment and exportation; (3) 
unloading or landing for transportation and exportation; or (4) 
unloading and entry at a port other than the port of first arrival. 
Fruits and vegetables that are moved into the United States under these 
circumstances are subject to inspection and must be handled in 
accordance with conditions assigned under the safeguard regulations to 
prevent the introduction and dissemination of plant pests.
    In accordance with Sec.  352.30, untreated oranges, tangerines, and 
grapefruit from Mexico may be moved into or through the United States 
in transit to foreign countries under certain conditions to prevent the 
introduction of plant pests into the United States. These conditions 
involve the use of information collection activities. Previously, this 
collection included only a transit permit. In this extension of 
approval request, we are adding the activities of a transportation and 
exportation permit, inspection, inspection certificate, and notice of 
arrival.
    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 reporting burden for this collection 
of information is estimated to average 0.67 hours per response.
    Respondents: Shippers.
    Estimated annual number of respondents: 3.
    Estimated annual number of responses per respondent: 13.
    Estimated annual number of responses: 39.
    Estimated total annual burden on respondents: 26 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 22nd day of August 2016.
Kevin Shea,
Administrator, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service.
