A federal agriculture agency is seeking to update and extend the paperwork requirements tied to rules governing the importation of live pigs, pork, and pork products into the United States.
The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service announced its intention to request a revision to and extension of approval of an information collection connected to regulations designed to keep imported swine and pork products free of classical swine fever.
The effort is specifically focused on imports coming from Brazil, Chile, and Mexico.
The request is being made in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, which requires federal agencies to seek approval before collecting certain types of information from the public.
