The manufacturers will submit the completed forms to staff at the Missoula Technology and Development Center located in Missoula, Montana. These forms are available electronically via e-mail or paper via surface mail. The manufacturers may submit the completed forms to the Missoula Technology and Development Center electronically or via surface mail. The following describes the information to be extended: OMB Number: 0596–0182. Expiration Date of Approval: 09/30/ 2005. Type of Request: Extension. Abstract: The collected information will include listings of specific individual ingredients and the quantities of the ingredients in the formulation of the products, identification of specific sources of supply for each ingredient, and the specific mixing and hydration requirements of gum-thickened products. If a risk analysis is necessary, Forest Service personnel will request that the manufacturer send a copy of the product labeling. When a risk analysis is necessary, a third party (either contractor or Federal agency) is utilized to assess the specific levels of products or ingredients expected to occur in typical application relative to human and environmental health. Once the manufacturers (and/or their suppliers) have submitted their information and payment (approximately $15,000 to the USDA Forest Service and an additional approximate $15,000 to third party laboratories in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation 9.0202(1)(2)(ii)) for the analysis and evaluation, the Missoula Technology and Development Center staff will begin to test the safety, efficiency, and effectiveness of the water enhancer products. The one-time collection of this information for each product submitted for evaluation is necessary (1) because it takes over a year to test the water enhancer products and perform the analysis and evaluation of the products and (2) the Forest Service needs to ensure the safety, effectiveness, and efficiency of water enhancer products prior to their use. If this information is not collected and water enhancer products are not analyzed and evaluated on an on-going basis, our ability to solicit and award water enhancer contracts in a timely manner would not be possible. Estimate of Annual Burden: 5.75 hours. VerDate jul<14>2003 18:03 May 05, 2005 Jkt 205001 Type of Respondents: Manufacturers (and their suppliers) of water enhancer products which suppress or retard combustion of wildland fires and which may meet the requirements of the appropriate USDA FS Specification that may be viewed at https://www.fs.fed.us/ rm/fire/wildland_chemicals.htm. Estimated Annual Number of Respondents: 3. Estimated Annual Number of Responses per Respondent: 2. Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 34.5 hours. Comment is invited on (1) Whether this collection of information is necessary for the stated purposes and the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information will have practical or scientific utility; (2) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the burden of the collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including the use of automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology. All comments received in response to this notice, including names and addresses when provided, will be a matter of public record. Comments will be summarized and included in the request for the Office of Management and Budget approval. Dated: April 28, 2005. Robin L. Thompson, Associate Deputy Chief, State and Private Forestry.
