II. Background
A. What Action is the Agency Taking?
EPA is making available the final risk
mitigation decision document and
related supporting documents for the
following 10 rodenticides: brodifacoum,
bromadiolone, bromethalin,
chlorophacinone, cholecalciferol,
difenacoum, difethialone, diphacinone
(and its sodium salt), warfarin (and its
sodium salt), and zinc phosphide. This
final risk mitigation decision represents
the Agency’s final decision on the
reregistration eligibility of rodenticide
products containing brodifacoum,
bromadiolone, bromethalin,
chlorophacinone, cholecalciferol,
diphacinone (and its sodium salt),
warfarin (and its sodium salt), and zinc
phosphide. It also constitutes the
Agency’s final action in response to the
remand order in ‘‘West Harlem
Environmental Action and Natural
Resources Defense Council v. U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency’’, 380
F.Supp.2d 289 (S.D.N.Y. 2005).
EPA’s final decision on the
rodenticides includes two major
components. To minimize children’s
exposure to rodenticide products used
in homes, EPA is requiring that in the
future, all rodenticide bait products
available for sale to general consumers
be sold only in bait stations. A range of
different types of bait stations will meet
the new requirements, providing
flexibility in cost. To reduce wildlife
exposures and ecological risks, the
Agency intends to prevent general
consumers from purchasing bait
products containing the rodenticides
that pose the greatest risk to wildlife
(the second generation anticoagulants –
brodifacoum, bromadiolone,
difethialone, and difenacoum) by
requiring various measures to control
sales and distribution. These new
VerDate Aug<31>2005
16:46 Jun 03, 2008
Jkt 214001
requirements support EPA’s goal of
preventing the sale of the second
generation anticoagulants on the general
consumer market, but will not change
how the livestock industry or other
professional applicators use
rodenticides.
The Agency’s decision will reduce
rodenticide exposures to children and
non-target wildlife, while ensuring
residential users, livestock producers,
and professional applicators access to a
variety of effective and affordable rodent
control products.
The decision document, including the
Agency’s supporting rationale for the
decision, can be found in docket
identification number EPA–HQ–OPP–
2006–0955 at https://
www.regulations.gov.
Over the past 10 years, EPA has
undertaken an open and transparent
process to assess and mitigate the risks
associated with use of the nine
rodenticides as part of the Agency’s
program to ensure that all pesticides
meet current health and safety
standards. Draft documents and
proposals have been subject to
numerous opportunities for public
comment; the Agency received over 700
comments in response to the January
2007 proposed decision and is releasing
a response to comments along with the
decision document. In reaching its
regulatory decision on the 10
rodenticides, EPA has worked
extensively with its stakeholders,
interested Federal agencies, and the
public to hear their concerns and
suggestions.
B. What is the Agency’s Authority for
Taking this Action?
EPA is reevaluating the use of eight of
these rodenticides (brodifacoum,
bromadiolone, bromethalin,
chlorophacinone, cholecalciferol,
diphacinone (and its sodium salt),
warfarin (and its sodium salt), and zinc
phosphide) pursuant to section 4 of
FIFRA. The Agency’s authority for
implementing the risk mitigation
measures identified in this risk
mitigation decision in regard to all 10
redenticides derives from various
sections of FIFRA, including, but not
limited to, sections 3, 4, and 6.

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS
COMMISSION
Notice of Public Information
Collection(s) Being Submitted for
Review to the Office of Management
and Budget
May 28, 2008.
SUMMARY: The Federal Communications
Commission, as part of its continuing
effort to reduce paperwork burden
invites the general public and other
Federal agencies to take this
opportunity to comment on the
following information collection(s), as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act (PRA) of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 3501–3520.
An agency may not conduct or sponsor
a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid control
number. No person shall be subject to
any penalty for failing to comply with
a collection of information subject to the
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) that
does not display a valid control number.
Comments are requested concerning (a)
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the Commission’s
burden estimate; (c) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information collected; and (d) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of
information on the respondents,
including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
DATES: Written Paperwork Reduction
Act (PRA) comments should be
submitted on or before August 4, 2008.

currently approved collection.
Respondents: Individuals or
households; business or other for-profit,
not-for-profit institutions, and state,
local or tribal government.
Number of Respondents: 4,500
respondents; 4,500 responses.
Estimated Time Per Response: .50
hours to complete FCC Form 854; 1
hour to place registration number at
base of antenna structure.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirement, recordkeeping
requirement, third party disclosure
requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits.
Total Annual Burden: 6,750 hours.
Total Annual Cost: $98,100.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: Yes.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
Respondents may request materials or
information submitted to the
Commission be withheld from public
inspection under 47 CFR 0.459 of the
Commission’s rules.
This information collection contains
personally identifiable information on
individuals which is subject to the
Privacy Act of 1974. Information on the
FCC Form 854 is maintained in the
Commission’s system of records, FCC/
WTB–1, ‘‘Wireless Services Licensing
Records.’’ These licensee records are
publicly available and routinely used in
accordance of subjection b of the
Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a(b), as
amended. Taxpayer Identification
Numbers (TIN) and materials that are

afforded confidential treatment
pursuant to a request made under 47
CFR 0.459 will be not available for
public inspection.
The Commission has in place the
following policy and procedures for
records retention and disposal: Records
will be actively maintained as long as
the individual remains a tower owner.
Paper records will be archived after
being keyed or scanned into the system.
Electronic records will be backed up on
tape. Electronic and paper records will
be maintained for at least twelve years.
Needs and Uses: The FCC Form 854
is used to register structures used for
wire or radio communication services in
any area where radio services are
regulated by the Commission; to make
changes to existing registered structures
or pending applications; or to notify the
Commission of the completion of
construction or dismantlement of
structures, as required by Title 47 of the
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR),
Chapter 1, Part 17 (FCC Rules Part 17).
Section 303(q) of the Communications
Act of 1934, as amended, requires the
Commission to require the painting and/
or illumination of radio towers in cases
where there is a reasonable possibility
that an antenna structure may cause a
hazard to air navigation. In 1992,
Congress amended Sections 303(q) and
503(b)(5) of the Communications Act to:
(1) Make antenna structure owners, as
well as Commission licensees and
permittees responsible for the painting
and lighting of antenna structures, and
(2) to provide that non-license antenna
structure owners may be subject to
forfeiture for violations of painting or
lighting requirements specified by the
Commission.
Currently, each antenna structure
owner proposing to construct or alter an
antenna structure that is more than
60.96 meters (200 feet) in height, or that
may interfere with the approach or
departure space of a nearby airport
runway must notify the Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA) of
proposed construction. The FAA
determines whether the antenna
structure constitutes a potential hazard,
and may recommend appropriate
painting and lighting for the structure.
The Commission then uses the FAA’s
recommendation to impose specific
painting and/or lighting requirements
on subject licensees.
The Commission is seeking an
extension (no change to the reporting,
recordkeeping and/or third party
disclosure requirements) in order to
obtain the full three year clearance from
them. Finally, the Commission is
adjusting the annual cost burden due to
