Title: Black Stem Rust; Identification
Requirements and Addition of Rust-
Resistant Varieties.
OMB Control Number: 0579–0186.
Summary of Collection: Under the
Plant Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 7701—et
seq.), the Secretary of Agriculture is
authorized to prohibit or restrict the
importation, entry, or movement of
plants and plant products to prevent the
introduction of plant pests into the
United States or their dissemination
within the United States. Black stem
rust is one of the most destructive plant
diseases of small grains that are known
to exist in the United States. The disease
is caused by a fungus that reduces the
quality and yield of infected wheat, oat,
barley, and rye crops by robbing host
plants of food and water. The fungus is
spread from host to host by windborne
spores.
Need and Use of the Information:
APHIS will collect information to
prevent the spread of black stem rust by
providing for and requiring the accurate
identification of rust-resistant varieties
by inspectors. When a business request
APHIS to add a variety to the list of rust-
resistant barberries, it need to provide
APHIS with a written description and
color pictures that can be used by the
State nursery inspectors to clearly
identify the variety and distinguish it
from other varieties. This action enables
nurseries to move the species into and
through protected areas and to
propagate and sell the species in States
or parts of States designated as
protected areas.
Description of Respondents: Business
or other for profit; State, Local, and
Tribal Government.
Number of Respondents: 2.
Frequency of Responses: Reporting:
On occasion.
Total Burden Hours: 16.
