Title: Pesticide Spray Drift Reduction Technologies. ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 2472.01, OMB Control No. 2070—New. VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:58 May 27, 2014 Jkt 232001 ICR Status: This request is for approval of a new collection. Abstract: EPA intends to initiate a voluntary information collection for research to verify the effectiveness of application technologies for agricultural pesticide sprays that have the potential to significantly reduce pesticide spray drift. The focus of this research is on technologies, such as spray nozzles, shrouds and shields, and nozzle/drift reducing adjuvant chemical combinations, which are used for aerial or groundboom applications to row and field crops. Collectively these technologies are referred to as drift reduction technologies (DRTs). The voluntary program would encourage the identification and use of DRTs that can substantially reduce drift of pesticide spray droplets from the target application site (e.g., a corn field) downwind to non-target areas. Exposures and adverse effects to humans, wildlife, and crops and other vegetation from pesticide spray drift are well recognized. Published research suggests 1–10% or more of applied agricultural pesticide sprays drift from the target field. EPA believes there are application technologies that have the potential to significantly reduce the amount of spray drift. As these technologies are identified, their driftreducing potential needs to be verified. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Entities potentially affected by the voluntary collection activities under this ICR include pesticide application equipment manufacturers, chemical manufacturers, pesticide registrants, university researchers, and others who have an interest in reducing spray drift. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) codes for the principal respondents include 32532, 111, 541710 and 611310. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Voluntary. Estimated number of respondents: 12 companies (total). Estimated average number of responses for each respondent: 1. Frequency of response: On occasion. Total estimated burden: 539 hours (annualized). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b). Total estimated cost: $73,000 (annualized), includes $0 annualized capital or operation and maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: This is a new ICR. PO 00000 Frm 00066 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Dated: May 16, 2014. Erin Collard, Acting Director, Collection Strategies Division.

ICR Title: Compliance Requirement for Child-Resistant Packaging. ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 0616.11, OMB Control No. 2070–0052. ICR status: The current OMB approval for this ICR is scheduled to expire on May 31, 2014. Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. Abstract: This information collection program is designed to provide EPA with assurances that the packaging of pesticide products sold and distributed to the general public in the United States meets standards set forth by the Agency pursuant to the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). Registrants must certify to the Agency that the packaging or device meets these standards. Section 25(c)(3) of FIFRA authorizes EPA to establish standards for packaging of pesticide products and pesticidal devices to protect children and adults from serious illness or injury resulting from accidental ingestion or contact. The law requires that these standards are designed to be consistent with those under the Poison Prevention Packaging Act, administered by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Unless a pesticide product qualifies for an exemption, if the product meets certain criteria regarding toxicity and use, it must be sold and distributed in child-resistant packaging. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this ICR include large and small entities engaged in manufacturing pesticide chemicals, wholesale merchandizing of pesticide products, or pest management activities. The North American Industrial VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:58 May 27, 2014 Jkt 232001 Classification System (NAICS) codes for respondents under this ICR include 325320 (Pesticide and other Agricultural Chemical Manufacturing), 424690 (Other Chemical and Allied Products Merchant Wholesalers), and 561710 (Exterminating and Pest Control Services). Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory. Estimated number of respondents: 1,733. Frequency of response: On occasion. Total estimated burden: 5,507 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b). Total estimated cost: $ 306,880 (per year). There are no annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs associated with this information collection. Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 614 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This increase is an adjustment due to revised estimates of the burden per response and a net shift in the type of submissions. The estimated average burden per response increased from 4.20 hours to 8.04 hours per submission. Based on comments received during consultations with stakeholders, EPA increased the burden per response for CRP certifications without data. The average burden per response is an average over all response types. In addition, there has been a change in the distribution of responses among the response types. Although the estimated number of responses for the current ICR renewal is expected to be is expected to decrease from 1,165 in the last ICR approval to 685, there is a net shift from less-burdensome (CRP certifications without data) to more-burdensome (CRP certifications with data) type responses.
