a currently valid OMB control number.
Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service
Title: Johne's Disease.
OMB Control Number: 0579-0338.
Summary of Collection: The Animal Health Protection Act of 2002 is
the primary Federal law governing the protection of animal health. The
law gives the Secretary of Agriculture broad authority to detect,
control, or eradicate pests or diseases of livestock or poultry. The
regulations in Title 9, Chapter 1, Subchapter C of the Code of Federal
Regulations, govern the interstate movement of animals to prevent the
dissemination of livestock and poultry diseases in the United States.
Need and Use of the Information: Animal and Plant Health Inspection
Service (APHIS) will collect information using form VS 1-27, Permit for
Movement of Restricted Animals and Official Ear Tags. APHIS will
collect the following information from formVS-127: (1) The number of
animals to be moved; (2) the species of the animals; (3) the points of
origin and destination, and (4) the names and addresses of the
consignor and the consignee. Failing to collect this information would
greatly hinder the control of Johne's disease and possible lead to
increased prevalence.
Description of Respondents: Business or other for-profit.
Number of Respondents: 3.
Frequency of Responses: Reporting: On occasion.
Total Burden Hours: 3.
