Collection
Abstract: The information collection is needed to enable the
Department of Agriculture to effectively administrate the Aerial
Photography Program. APFO has the responsibility for conducting and
coordinating the FSA's aerial photography, remote sensing programs, and
the aerial photography flying contract programs. The digital and film
imagery secured by FSA is public domain and reproductions are available
at cost to any customer with a need. All receipts from the sale of
aerial photography products and services are retained by FSA. The FSA-
441, Request for Aerial Photography, is the form FSA supplies to the
customers for placing an order for aerial imagery products and
services. The burden hours have decreased because there are a fewer
customers requesting for the aerial photography products.
For the following estimated total annual burden on respondents, the
formula used to calculate the total burden hour is the estimated
average time per responses hours multiplied by the estimated total
annual responses.
Estimate of Burden: Public reporting burden for this information
collection is estimated to average 19 minutes per response. The average
travel time, which is included in the total burden, is estimated to be
1 hour per respondent.
Type of Respondents: Farmers, Ranchers and other customers who wish
to purchase imagery products and services.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 1,465.
Estimated Annual Number of Responses per Respondent: 1.
Estimated Total Annual Responses: 1,465.
Estimated Average Time per Response: 0.296.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours on Respondents: 433 hours.
We are requesting comments on all aspects of this information
collection to help us to:
(1) Evaluate whether the collection of information is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions of FSA, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of FSA's estimate of the burden of the
collection of information including the validity of the methodology and
assumptions used;
(3) Evaluate the quality, utility, and clarity of the information
technology; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those
who are respond, including through the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
All comments received in response to this notice, including names
and addresses where provided, will be made a matter of public record.
Comments will be summarized and included in the request for OMB
approval of the information collection.
