April 15, 2020.
    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 May 21, 
2020 will be considered. Written comments and recommendations for the 
proposed information collection should be submitted within 30 days of 
the publication of this notice on the following website 
www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. Find this particular information 
collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--Open for 
Public Comments'' or by using the search function.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor a collection of information 
unless the collection of information displays a currently valid OMB 
control number and the agency informs potential persons who are 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.

Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service

    Title: Phytosanitary Export Certification.
    OMB Control Number: 0579-0052.
    Summary of Collection: The Animal and Plant Health Inspection 
Service (APHIS) is responsible for preventing plant diseases or insect 
pests from entering the United States, preventing the spread of pests 
and noxious weeds not widely distributed within the United States, and 
eradicating those imported pests when eradication is feasible. The 
Plant Protection Act authorizes USDA to carry out this mission. APHIS 
will collect information using several forms and other information 
activities.
    Need and Use of the Information: APHIS will use the information 
collected to locate shipments, guide inspection, and issue a 
certificate to meet the requirements of the importing country. Failure 
to provide this information would have an impact on many U.S. exporters 
who would no longer be able to engage in the business of exporting 
plants and plant products overseas.
    Description of Respondents: Business or other for-profit; State, 
and Local or Tribal Government.
    Number of Respondents: 9,102.
