SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: South American Cactus Moth; Quarantine and Regulations.
OMB Control Number: 0579-0337.
Type of Request: Revision to and extension of approval of an
information collection.
Abstract: As authorized by the Plant Protection Act (PPA, 7 U.S.C.
7701 et seq.), the Secretary of Agriculture, either independently or in
cooperation with States, may carry out operations or measures to
detect, eradicate, suppress, control, prevent, or retard the spread of
plant pests that are new to or not widely distributed within the United
States. This authority has been delegated to the Animal and Plant
Health Inspection Service (APHIS) of the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, which administers regulations to implement the PPA.
In accordance with the regulations in ``Subpart--South American
Cactus Moth'' (7 CFR 301.55 through 301.55-9), APHIS restricts the
interstate movement of cactus moth host material, including nursery
stock and plant parts for consumption, from infested areas of the
United States to help prevent the spread of South American cactus moth
into noninfested areas of the United States. The regulations contain
requirements for the interstate movement of regulated articles and
involve information collection activities, including completion of
Federal certificates, compliance agreements, and limited permits.
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 0.41 hours per response.
Respondents: State plant health officials and businesses.
Estimated annual number of respondents: 6.
Estimated annual number of responses per respondent: 7.
Estimated annual number of responses: 39.
Estimated total annual burden on respondents: 16 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 16th day of May 2017.
Jere L. Dick,
Acting Administrator, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service.
