This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purpose of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining, information, and disclosing and providing information. All existing ways will have to adjust to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements that 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: Acrylic and Modacrylic Fibers Production, Carbon Black Production, Chemical Manufacturing: Chromium Compounds, Flexible Polyurethane Foam Production and Fabrication, Lead Acid Battery Manufacturing, and Wood Preserving. Estimated Number of Respondents: 319. Frequency of Response: Initially, semiannually, and occasionally. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 4,233.

VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:24 Sep 03, 2010 Jkt 220001 Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease in the number of affected facilities due to a more accurate accounting of existing sources. This decrease is not due to any program changes. There is an increase in the estimated labor burden hours and cost as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. The increase is due to more accurate calculations, and the use of more recent labor rates. Dated: August 26, 2010. John Moses, Director, Collection Strategies Division.

This ICR is for an ongoing information collection activity. 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 Final Rule and in the Federal Register when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9 or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. Abstract: Section 6(a)(2) of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), requires pesticide registrants to submit information to the Agency which may be relevant to the balancing of the risks and benefits of a pesticide product. The statute requires the registrant to submit any factual information that it acquires regarding adverse effects associated with its pesticidal products, and it is up to the Agency to determine whether or not that factual information constitutes an unreasonable adverse effect. In order to limit the amount of less meaningful information that might be submitted to the Agency, the EPA has limited the scope of factual information that the registrant must submit. The agency’s regulations at 40 CFR part 159 provide a detailed description of the reporting obligations of registrants under FIFRA section 6(a)(2). Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average about 117 hours per respondent. 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.

    ICR Status: The current OMB approval for this ICR is scheduled to 
expire on October 31, 2010. Under OMB regulations, the Agency may 
continue to conduct or sponsor the collection of information while this 
submission is

pending at OMB. This ICR is for an ongoing information collection 
activity. 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 Final Rule 
and in the Federal Register when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9 
or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection 
instrument or form, if applicable.
    Abstract: Section 6(a)(2) of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and 
Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), requires pesticide registrants to submit 
information to the Agency which may be relevant to the balancing of the 
risks and benefits of a pesticide product. The statute requires the 
registrant to submit any factual information that it acquires regarding 
adverse effects associated with its pesticidal products, and it is up 
to the Agency to determine whether or not that factual information 
constitutes an unreasonable adverse effect. In order to limit the 
amount of less meaningful information that might be submitted to the 
Agency, the EPA has limited the scope of factual information that the 
registrant must submit. The agency's regulations at 40 CFR part 159 
provide a detailed description of the reporting obligations of 
registrants under FIFRA section 6(a)(2).
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average about 
117 hours per respondent. 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: Pesticide Registrants.
    Estimated Total Number of Respondents: 1733.
    Frequency of Response: As necessary.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 203,236.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $11,793,027.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 35,920 hours in 
the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of 
Approved ICR Burdens. This adjustment reflects the increase of the 
number of registrants of active products (1,733 versus 1,720) and an 
increase in the estimated burden to account for additional employees 
being trained.
