    Title: Voluntary Destruction of Imported Meat, Poultry, and Egg 
Products.
    OMB Control Number: 0583-New.
    Summary of Collection: FSIS has been delegated the authority to 
exercise the functions of the Secretary (7 CFR 2.18, 2.53), as 
specified in the Federal Meat Inspection Act (FMIA) (21 U.S.C. 601, et 
seq.), the Poultry Products Inspection Act (PPIA) (21 U.S.C. 451, et 
seq.), and the Egg Products Inspection Act (EPIA) (21 U.S.C. 1031, et 
seq.). These statutes mandate that FSIS protect the public by verifying 
that meat, poultry, and egg products are safe, wholesome, 
unadulterated, and properly labeled and packaged.
    Imported meat, poultry, and egg products that do not comply with 
U.S. requirements are not allowed to enter U.S. commerce and are 
identified as ``U.S. Refused Entry'' product. Inspection Program 
Personnel (IPP) are required to verify that U.S. refused entry product 
is stored and segregated from other product at an official import 
inspection establishment until final disposition occurs, or permission 
to move the shipment is granted by a FSIS Office of Field Operations 
(OFO) District Office (DO).
    Need and Use of the Information: FSIS IPP will use the information 
during the observation of the product destruction to verify that the 
product being destroyed is the same product that was refused entry and 
that the product is controlled by the import establishment until 
destruction is completed. The Importer/Broker/Agent will complete FSIS 
Form 9840-4, Voluntary Destruction of Imported Meat (Including 
Siluriformes), Poultry, and
