Short Statement:
This request for renewal is for 234,630 estimated responses and 111,339 estimated burden hours, reflecting a decrease of 333 responses and of 5,919 hours of burden from the previous request. The number of respondents decreased from 6,851 to 2,867. The changes are the result of the leveling off of participation in the NPIP compartmentalization and AI and ND control programs, despite the merging of the description of animal identification and traceability processes, laboratory examination for NDv and reporting, the biosecurity plan, and the initial State response and containment plan from 0579-0474. An increase of 7 hours in the total annual time estimate was due to a rounding adjustment in the following activities: Flock Selecting and Testing Reports-Flock Test Meat Chicken Slaughter (State) and (Business); Flock Selecting and Testing Reports-Flock Test Meat Turkey Slaughter Plants (State); Investigation of Salmonella Isolations in Poultry (Business); Flock Inspection and Check Testing Report (State); Compliance Statement (Individual); and Printing and Making Computerized Printouts (State) and (Business). Summary of changes: --Previous responses 21,054, renewal responses 20,766, resulting in a decrease of 333 estimated responses. --Previous burden hours 11,301, renewal burden 5,375, resulting in a decrease of 5,919 estimated burden hours. See the two tables in the supporting statement, question 15, which provides a breakout of the adjustments and discretionary changes (new activity or program merger).
