ICR Title: Experimental Use Permits (EUPs) for Pesticides. ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 0276.15, OMB Control No. 2070–0040. ICR status: The current OMB approval for this ICR is scheduled to expire on June 30, 2014. Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. Abstract: The Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) requires that before a pesticide product may be distributed or sold in the United States, it must be registered by EPA. Section 5 of FIFRA authorizes EPA to issue experimental use permits (EUPs) which allow companies to temporarily ship pesticide products for experimental use for the purpose of gathering data necessary to support the application for registration of a pesticide product. In general, EUPs are issued either for a pesticide not registered with the Agency or for a new use of a registered pesticide. The EUP application must be submitted in order to obtain a permit. This information collection provides EPA with the data necessary to determine whether to issue a EUP under section 5 of FIFRA. Form Numbers: EPA Form 8570–17— Application for an Experimental Use Permit to Ship and Use a Pesticide for Experimental Purposes Only. Respondents/affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this ICR include individuals or entities engaged in pesticide, fertilizer, and other agricultural chemical manufacturing. The NAICS codes for respondents under VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:01 Jun 24, 2014 Jkt 232001 this ICR include: 325320 (Pesticide and other Agricultural Chemical Manufacturing). Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR 172). Estimated number of respondents: 30 (total). Estimated number of responses per respondent: 1. Frequency of response: On occasion. Total estimated annual burden: 556 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated annual cost: $33,872 (per year). There are no capital or operation & maintenance costs associated with this information collection. Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 1,351 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This decrease reflects EPA’s updating of burden estimates for this collection based upon historical information indicating a reduced number of EUP submissions for chemical pesticides, as well as a decrease in the number of EUP applications that are plant-incorporated protectants. This change is an adjustment. Spencer W. Clark, Acting Director, Collection Strategies Division.

PO 00000 Frm 00068 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 36055 Abstract: Owners and operators must notify EPA of construction modification startups, shutdowns, malfunctions, and data and results of performance test. Owners/operators must continually monitor and record temperature in specified pollution control devices. EPA determines parameters to be recorded in other control devices upon description of that device by the source. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Asphalt processing and roofing manufacturer facilities. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart UU). Estimated number of respondents: 144 (total). Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally and semiannually. Total estimated burden: 33,912 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $8,557,168 (per year), which includes $5,240,000 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the 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 burden hours in the previous ICR reflect the current burden and are reiterated in this ICR. However, there is an adjustment decrease in the respondent cost and an adjustment increase in the Agency cost due to an update in labor rates.
