Foreign Agricultural Service
Title: Dairy Tariff-Rate Import Quota Licensing Program.
OMB Control Number: 0551-0001.
Summary of Collection: The Dairy Tariff-Rate Import Quota
regulation (the Regulation) (7 CFR part 6.20-6.37) which governs the
administration of the import licensing system applicable to most dairy
products subject to tariff-rate quotas (TRQs). The importation of most
cheese made from cow's milk and certain non-cheese dairy articles
(butter, dried milks, and butter substitutes) are subject to TRQs and
must be accompanied by an import license issued by the Department to
enter at the lower tariff. Importers without licenses may enter these
dairy articles, but are required to pay the higher tariff. The Foreign
Agricultural Service (FAS) will collect information using several
forms.
Need and Use of the Information: FAS will use the collected
information in the administration of the tariff-rate import quota
licensing system for certain dairy products and the issuance of
licenses in accordance with the Regulation. If the information were
collected less frequently, FSA would be unable to issue licenses on an
annual basis in compliance with the Import Regulation.
Description of Respondents: Business or other-for-profit.
Number of Respondents: 700.
Frequency of Responses: Record keeping, Reporting: Annually.
Total Burden Hours: 479.
