Abstract: The Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) administers
certification programs for pesticide
applicators under section 11 of the
Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and
Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). FIFRA allows
EPA to classify a pesticide as ‘‘restricted
use’’ if the pesticide meets certain
toxicity or risk criteria. Due to the
potential of improperly applied
restricted use pesticides (RUPs) to harm
human health or the environment,
pesticides under this classification may
be purchased and applied only by
‘‘certified applicators’’ or by persons
under the direct supervision of certified
applicators. The completion of a
certification program or test is required
in order to become a certified
applicator.
Personally identifying information
(PII) is collected in the process of
certifying individuals to apply RUPs as
private or commercial applicators. This
information is collected to differentiate
between individuals sharing the same
names and is subject to Agency-wide

security requirements governing all
Privacy Act database systems at EPA.
Form Numbers: EPA Form 8500–17
and EPA Form 8500–17–N.
Respondents/affected entities:
Registrants, commercial and private
applicators, and dealers of restricted use
pesticides; Indian tribes and State
regulators.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory (FIFRA Sections 3 & 11).
Estimated number of respondents:
421,000 (total).
Frequency of response: On occasion.
Total estimated burden: 1,320,254
hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5
CFR 1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $42,637,865 (per
year), includes $0 annualized capital or
operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is a
decrease of 415 hours in the total
estimated respondent burden compared
with the ICR currently approved by
OMB. This net decrease is due to EPA’s
updates to burden estimates, addition of
a recently-implemented optional,
voluntary offering, and a change in the
number of entities whose certification
programs are directly overseen by EPA.
This change is both an adjustment and
the result of a program change.

Acting Director, Collection Strategies
Division.
