Title: NSPS for Ammonium Sulfate
Manufacturing Plants (Renewal).
ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number
1066.06, OMB Control Number 2060–
0032.
ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to
expire on May 31, 2010. Under OMB
regulations, the Agency may continue to
conduct or sponsor the collection of
information while this submission is
pending at OMB. An Agency may not
conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, a collection of
information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
The OMB control numbers for EPA’s
regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after
appearing in the Federal Register when
approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9,
and displayed either by publication in
the Federal Register or by other
appropriate means, such as on the
related collection instrument or form, if
applicable. The display of OMB control
numbers in certain EPA regulations is
consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.
Abstract: The New Source
Performance Standards (NSPS) for
Ammonium Sulfate Manufacturing
Plants (40 CFR part 60, subpart PP),
were proposed on February 4, 1980, and
PO 00000
Frm 00031
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
17711
promulgated on November 12, 1980.
Owners or operators of the affected
facilities must make an initial
notification, performance tests, periodic
reports, and maintain records of the
occurrence and duration of any startup,
shutdown, or malfunction in the
operation of an affected facility, or any
period during which the monitoring
system is inoperative. Reports, at a
minimum, are required semiannually.
Burden Statement: The annual public
reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information is
estimated to average 62 hours per
response. 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 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:
Ammonium sulfate manufacturing
plants.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 2.
Frequency of Response: Initially,
occasionally, and semiannually.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
247.
Estimated Total Annual Cost: $23,183
in labor costs exclusively. There are
neither capital/startup costs nor
operation and maintenance (O&M)
costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is an
apparent increase of one hour in the
total labor hours for this ICR. Total labor
hours for this ICR are 247 rather than
246 in the previous ICR, because the
previous ICR did not round labor hours
up to the nearest whole number. There
is no change in the per-respondent labor
hours in this ICR compared to the
previous ICR. This is due to two
considerations: (1) The regulations have
not changed over the past three years
and are not anticipated to change over
the next three years; and (2) the growth
rate for the respondents is very low,
negative or non-existent. Therefore, the
labor hours in the previous ICR reflect
the current burden to the respondents
and are reiterated (with a correction for
rounding) in this ICR.

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 66 / Wednesday, April 7, 2010 / Notices
There is an increase in both
Respondent and Agency costs resulting
from labor rate increases from 2003 to
2009. This ICR uses 2009 labor rates
because burden and cost calculations in
Tables 1 and 2 of this ICR were
expanded to include managerial and
clerical labor rates, and the previous ICR
only provided a technical labor rate for
2003. This ICR is therefore updated to
present the most recent available labor
rates for each of the three labor
categories.

Malathion and Diquat Dibromide;
Cancellation Order for Amendments to
Terminate Uses
AGENCY: Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
SUMMARY: This notice announces EPA’s
order for the amendments to terminate
uses, voluntarily requested by the
registrants and accepted by the Agency,
of uses of the products listed in Table
1, pursuant to section 6(f)(1) of the
Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and
Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as amended.
This cancellation order follows a
February 10, 2010 Federal Register
Notice of Receipt of Requests from the
registrants listed in Table 2 to
voluntarily amend to terminate certain
uses of these product registrations.
These are not the last products
containing these pesticides registered
for use in the United States. In the
February 10, 2010 Notice, EPA
indicated that it would issue an order
implementing the amendments to
terminate uses, unless the Agency
received substantive comments within
the 30–day comment period that would
merit its further review of these
requests, or unless the registrants
withdrew their requests within this
period. The Agency received one
comment on the notice, but this
comment did not merit the Agency’s
further review of the requests. Further,
the registrants did not withdraw their
requests. Accordingly, EPA hereby
issues in this notice a cancellation order
granting the requested amendments to
terminate uses. Any distribution, sale,
or use of the products subject to this
cancellation order is permitted only in
accordance with the terms of this order,
including any existing stocks
provisions.
DATES: The cancellations are effective
April 7, 2010.

rates because burden and cost calculations in Tables 1 and 2 of this

the previous ICR only provided a technical labor rate for 2003. This

rates for each of the three labor categories.
