Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, for individuals applying for U.S. Department of Agriculture licenses as shell egg graders, poultry graders, rabbit graders, and shell egg
surveillance inspectors. Section 1622(h) of Title 7 of the United States Code gives the U.S. Department of Agriculture the authority to inspect, certify, and identify the class,

Agriculture to provide an inspection program to control the disposition of dirty and checked shell eggs; and to control unwholesome, adulterated, and inedible egg products and
shell eggs that are unfit for human consumption (7 CFR 56.10, 59.110, and 70.20(a) and (b)). Use of the application for license form is necessary to obtain personnel to perform
these functions.

become licensees of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Your completed application form will be used to determine whether or not the license applied for will be granted to you.

1. Appropriate Federal, State, or local law enforcement agencies charged with the responsibility of investigating a violation of potential violation of law.
