This ICR supports an agency program by
which respondents may be included on an established list of U.S.
dairy firms who wish to export to foreign countries. Respondents
who wish to be included on the list will voluntarily send
information to FDA, including the name and address of the firm and
the manufacturing plant, a list of products presently shipped and
expected to be shipped in the future, and identities of agencies
that inspect the plant, plant number and copy of last
inspection.
At the request of the
Chinese government, FDA is seeking to provide a list of U.S. Dairy
firms who wish to export products to that country. As currently
approved, this collection is limited to firms wishing to export to
Chile, however, in light of China's request we are seeking to
revise the collection as expeditiously as possible to permit the
list be provided to other countries as well.
Explanation for program change
