State Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act; Working Committee's on Environmental Quality Issues and Pesticides Operations Management, 8539-8540 [E9-4003]

Download as PDF pwalker on PROD1PC71 with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 36 / Wednesday, February 25, 2009 / Notices non-stationary bulk containers holding pesticide and not protected by a secondary containment unit remain at the same location; and 3) construction date of the containment structure. The businesses subject to the containment structure regulations include agrichemical retailers and refilling establishments, custom blenders and commercial applicators of agricultural pesticides. The records have to be maintained by the owners and operators of such businesses. There is no regular schedule for the collection of either of these records, nor does EPA anticipate a call-in of records at some future date. Instead, the records would be available to inspectors to ensure that businesses are in compliance with containment requirements. These inspections are generally conducted by the states, who enforce FIFRA regulations through cooperative agreements with EPA. Burden statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 7.4 hours per response. The ICR, a copy of which is available in the docket, provides a detailed explanation of this estimate, which is only briefly summarized here: Estimated total number of potential respondents: 23,586. This includes 1,804 registrant facilities, 16,795 agricultural pesticide refillers, 322 swimming pool supply companies, and 4,665 facilities requiring secondary containment. Frequency of response: On occasion. There is no regular reporting involved. This ICR only involves recordkeeping requirements. Estimated total average number of responses for each respondent: 1. Estimated total annual burden hours: 174,550.5 hours. This includes 139,563 hours for container design and residue removal requirements and 34,987.5 hours for containment structure requirements. Estimated total annual costs: $6,124,953. This includes $4,902,723 for container design and residue removal requirements and $1,222,230 for containment structure requirements. Changes in the estimates from the last approval: The renewal of this ICR will result in an overall increase of 122,493.5 hours in the total estimated respondent burden identified in the currently approved ICR. When the information collection associated with this ICR was approved in 2006, the burden hours were adjusted to reflect only the burden associated with initial rule familiarization and state requests to use their containment regulations in lieu of Federal regulations - a total of 52,057 hours. These were the only burdens that VerDate Nov<24>2008 18:09 Feb 24, 2009 Jkt 217001 were imposed by the pesticide container and containment regulations during the course of that approval. EPA was instructed to revise the estimates, upon resubmission, to reflect the burden imposed in 2009 and beyond because of compliance with the requirements. This change is an adjustment. V. What is the Next Step in the Process for These ICRs? EPA will consider the comments received and amend the individual ICRs as appropriate. The final ICR packages will then be submitted to OMB for review and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.12. EPA will issue another Federal Register notice pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a) (1) (iv) to announce the submission of these ICRs to OMB and the opportunity for the public to submit additional comments for OMB consideration. If you have any questions about any of these ICRs or the approval process in general, please contact the person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
