This ICR is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2007. Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. This ICR describes the nature of the information collection and its estimated burden and cost. Abstract: This information collection will allow EPA to process requests for waivers of fees under the Pesticide Registration Improvement Act of 2003 (PRIA). The ICR covers the collection activities associated with requesting a fee waiver and involves requesters submitting a waiver request, information to demonstrate eligibility for the waiver, and certification of eligibility. Waivers are available for small businesses, for minor uses, and for actions solely associated with the InterRegional Research Project Number 4 (IR–4). State and federal agencies are exempt from the payment of fees. Information collected will allow EPA to determine whether to grant a waiver of registration fees, according to requirements of PRIA. Responses to the collection of information are required to obtain a fee waiver. Data and/or information submitted to the Agency in conjunction with service fee waiver requests may be claimed as trade secret or commercial or financial information and will be protected from disclosure under FIFRA section 10 and the associated regulation as contained in 40 CFR part 2, subpart B. Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 37 hours per response for first-time applicants, 12 hours per response for applicants requesting another fee waiver or reduction within the same fee billing cycle, and 27 hours per response for applicants that have applied for a fee waiver in a prior billing cycle but not in the current billing cycle. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal PO 00000 Frm 00037 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 18983 agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements which have subsequently changed; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. Respondents/Affected Entities: Pesticide registrants that seek a registration fee waiver. Estimated Number of Respondents: 389. Frequency of Response: On occasion. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 8,368. Estimated Total Annual Labor Cost: $521,903. Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 2,302 hours in the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. This decrease is due to the fact that the distribution of responses among the three different response types has been adjusted, with a higher percentage of responses in the lower-burden types. The distribution among response types was estimated in the currently approved ICR, as it was a new requirement, whereas this proposed renewal uses actual values based on experience. This change is an adjustment. Dated: April 6, 2007. Robert Gunter, Acting Director, Collection Strategies Division. [FR Doc.

    Title: Pesticide Registration Fee Waivers.
    ICR Status: This is a request to renew an existing approved 
collection. This ICR is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2007. Under 
OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the 
collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. This 
ICR describes the nature of the information collection and its 
estimated burden and cost.
    Abstract: This information collection will allow EPA to process 
requests for waivers of fees under the Pesticide Registration 
Improvement Act of 2003 (PRIA). The ICR covers the collection 
activities associated with requesting a fee waiver and involves 
requesters submitting a waiver request, information to demonstrate

includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, 
install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of

maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; 
adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable
