Title: Establishment of User Fees 
Abstract:

This proposed action would solicit comments on the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service’s (APHIS’) intention to administratively implement fees to cover the Government’s full cost for providing services related to the following APHIS programs: Licenses for animal dealers under the Animal Welfare Act, veterinary biologics product approval, and regulatory review of genetically engineered organisms. These user fees were included in the President’s Fiscal Year 2020 USDA Budget Proposal to Congress. USDA currently provides services that benefit these specific industries through appropriations.
