This collection is used to ensure that
intransit movements of poultry and pork products present a
negligible risk of END or CSF into the United States.
US Code:
7 USC
8301 Name of Law: National Animal Health Protection Act
Transits of poultry carcasses,
parts, or products (except eggs and egg products) and pork and pork
products from Mexican States determined by APHIS to be free of END
and CSF have decreased, because of changes in market demand. APHIS
was informed by FSIS that the number of imports was low and
therefore, APHIS has received fewer applications. Although the
number of respondents increased from 22 to 29, the number of times
they responded decreased. There is an adjustment of -267 responses
resulting in a decrease of -245 burden hours.
