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
are requested regarding 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; the
accuracy of the agency's estimate of burden including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used; ways to enhance the quality,
utility and clarity of the information to be collected; and 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.
Comments regarding this information collection received by July 3,
2019 will be considered. Written comments should be addressed to: Desk
Officer for Agriculture, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Office of Management and Budget (OMB), New Executive Office Building,
725 17th Street NW, Washington, DC 20502. Commenters are encouraged 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 Safety and Inspection Service
Title: Importation and Transportation of Meat, Poultry and Egg
Products.
OMB Control Number: 0583-0094.
Summary of Collection: The Food Safety and Inspection Service
(FSIS) has been delegated the authority to exercise the functions of
the Secretary as provided in the Federal Meat Inspection Act (FMIA) (21
U.S.C. 601 et seq.) and the Poultry Products Inspection Act (PPIA) (21
U.S.C. 451 et seq.), and the Egg Products Inspection Act (EPIA) (21
U.S.C. 1031, et seq.) These statutes mandate that FSIS protect the
public by ensuring that meat, poultry, and egg products are safe,
wholesome, unadulterated, and properly labeled and packaged. Meat and
poultry products not marked with the mark of inspection and shipped
from one official establishment to another for further processing must
be transported under FSIS seal to prevent such unmarked product from`
entering commerce. To track product shipped under seal, FSIS requires
shipping establishments to complete a form that identifies the type,
amount, and weight of the product. Foreign countries that wish to
export meat, poultry, and egg products to the United States must
establish eligibility to do so by putting in place inspection systems
that are ``equivalent to'' the U.S. inspection system (9 CFR 327.2 and
381.196) and by annually certifying that they continue to do so.
Need and Use of the Information: FSIS will collect information
using form 7350-1, Request and Notice of Shipment of Sealed Meat/
Poultry. FSIS will collect the name, number, method of shipping, and
destination of product, type and description of product to be shipped,
reason for shipping product, and a signature. Meat, poultry, and egg
products intended for importation into the U.S. must be accompanied by
an inspection certificate signed by an official of the foreign
government responsible for the inspection and certification of the
product.
Description of Respondents: Business or other for-profit.
Number of Respondents: 136.
Frequency of Responses: Recordkeeping; Reporting: On occasion.
Total Burden Hours: 4,026.
