SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Importation of Swine Hides, Bird Trophies, and Deer Hides.
OMB Control Number: 05790307.
Type of Request: Revision to and extension of approval of an information collection.
Abstract: Under the Animal Health Protection Act 7 U.S.C. 8301 et seq., the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service APHIS of the United States Department of Agriculture is authorized, among other things, to prohibit or restrict the importation and interstate movement of animals and animal products to prevent the introduction into and dissemination within the United States of livestock diseases and pests. To carry out this mission, APHIS
regulates the importation of animals and animal products into the United States.
The regulations are contained in 9 CFR
parts 91 through 99.
The regulations in 9 CFR parts 94 and 95 referred to below as the regulations prohibit or restrict the importation of specified animal products into the United States to prevent the introduction into the U.S. livestock population of certain contagious animal diseases. Sections 95.16 and 95.17 of the regulations contain, among other things, specific processing and certification requirements for untanned hides and skins and bird trophies.
The regulations require, among other things, that shipments of hides be accompanied by certificates showing their origin and certifying that the hides are from areas free of certain animal diseases. Shipments of ruminant hides from Mexico must be accompanied by written statements indicating that the hides were frozen for 24 hours and treated for ticks. Shipments of bird trophies must be accompanied by certificates of origin certifying that the trophies are from regions free of Newcastle disease and highly pathogenic avian influenza. These activities help ensure that the products do not harbor disease or ticks.
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: Public burden for this collection of information is estimated to average approximately 0.320 hours per response.
Respondents: National government officials, owners of untanned ruminant and swine hides, and importers of untanned ruminant and swine hides.
Estimated number of respondents:
167.
Estimated number of responses per respondent: 9.
Estimated annual number of responses: 1,472.
Estimated total annual burden on respondents: 471 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 4th day of August 2021.
