Section 12314 of the Agricultural Act
of 2014 established in the Treasury the "Pima Agriculture Cotton
Trust Fund" to be used for the purpose of reducing the injury to
domestic manufacturers resulting from tariffs on cotton fabric that
are higher than tariffs on certain apparel articles made of cotton
fabric. Claimants must submit an affidavit certifying that they
meet the requirements specified in the Act.
This is a revision of the
previously approved emergency request for a new collection of
information. The original estimate was 12 respondents, 12
responses, and 24 burden hours. With this renewal submission the
respondents decreased to 7 along with reducing the number of
responses to 7 and the burden hours to 14. The numbers are based on
actual respondents for 2014.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
