is renewed, APHIS should explore converting PPQ Forms 519, 530,
540, and 523 to common forms. If this is not done before the
renewal, an explanation should be provided as to what challenge(s)
APHIS has for the conversion.

The purpose of this collection is to
ensure that quarantine requirements for Asian citrus psyllid, a
vector of the bacterial pathogen that causes citrus greening, are
met.
There is a program change
increase of +1 respondent and +1 response resulting in an increase
of +1 burden hour. This increase is due to APHIS now accounting for
the Emergency Action Notifications (PPQ Form 523) which was
erroneously left off previous collections and is counted as a
violation. There is an adjustment increase of +17 respondents and +
1,466 responses resulting in an increase of + 230 burden hours. The
increase is due to additional respondents who submitted permits,
certificates, compliance agreements, act as recordkeepers and
labeling increases.
