Burden Reduction Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Short Statement: The number of respondents decreased from 5 to 4. In the 2010 renewal, 5 respondents accounted for phytosanitary certificates, and the same 5 respondents for stamping of boxes, which totaled 5 respondents. In the current renewal package, phytosanitary certificates only account for 1 respondent due to the decrease in trade due to the economy, and the other 3 respondents account for the new packinghouse registration requirement which was inadvertently left out of the 2010 renewal package. There is a program change of -5,397 annual responses and -5 burden hours. APHIS arrived at these figures by removing the requirement for stamping of boxes (-5,400 responses and -8 burden hours). This is offset by adding the requirement for packinghouse registration (+3 annual responses and +3 burden hours) which was inadvertently omitted in the last submission. There is an adjustment of -14 annual responses and -7 burden hours due to the drop in the number of phytosanitary certificates issued. Note: As stated in the beginning of this Supporting Statement, Korean Unshu oranges can now be imported into the continental United States instead of only into Alaska, so there is a title change for this information collection from "Importation of Unshu Oranges from the Republic of Korea into Alaska" to "Importation of Unshu Oranges from the Republic of Korea into the Continental United States."
