the collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number.
Forest Service
Title: Qualified Products List for
Water Enhancers.
OMB Control Number: 0596–0182.
Summary of Collection: The Forest
Service (FS) objective is, ‘‘To have
available and utilize adequate types and
quantities of qualified fire chemical
products to accomplish fire
management activities safely,
efficiently, and effectively.’’ To
accomplish their objective, FS evaluates
chemical products that may be used in
direct wildland fire suppression
operations prior to their use on lands
managed by the FS. Safe products do
not include ingredients that create an
enhanced risk, in typical use, to either
the firefighters involved or the public in
general.
Need and Use of the Information: FS
will collect the listing of individual
ingredients and quantity of these
ingredients in the formulation of a
product being submitted for evaluation
in order to test the products. The entity
submitting the information provides the
FS with the specific ingredients used in
its product and identifies the specific
source of supply for each ingredient. For
Water Enhancer products the FS
requires that a Technical Data Form be
completed, the information collected
here is specific mixing requirements
and hydration requirements for water
enhancer products. The information
provided will allow the FS to search the
List of Known and Suspected
Carcinogens, as well as the Environment
Protection Agency’s List of Highly
Hazardous Materials, to determine if
any of the ingredients appear on any of
these lists. Without the information FS
would not be able to assess the safety of
the wildland fire chemicals utilized on
FS managed land, since the specific
ingredients and the quantity of each
ingredients used in a formulation would
not be known.
