    Title: Registration Requirements.
    OMB Control Number: 0583-0128.

U.S.C. 601 et seq.) and the Poultry Products Inspection Act (PPIA) (21 
U.S. C. 451 et seq.). These statutes mandate that FSIS protect the 
public by ensuring that meat and poultry are safe, wholesome, 
unadulterated, and properly labeled and packaged. According to the 
regulations, (9 CFR 320.5 and 381.179), parties required to register

program.
