The Cranberry Marketing Committee needs to obtain information from producer-handlers, second-handlers, processors, brokers and importers of cranberries and cranberry products not subject to the order relating to sales, acquisition and inventory.
US Code:
7 USC 601-674
Name of Law: Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act of 1937
Committee voted to suspend the reporting and recordkeeping requirements since most inventories are maintained by handlers regulated under the order, and that the amount of cranberries and cranberry products held by entities outside the order is minimal and does not affect the Committee's marketing decisions.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
