4. Regulation of pesticide adjuvants.
Some commenters asked the Agency to
clarify the impact of this removal action
on the use of tank-mix adjuvants,
including with respect to tolerances and
exemptions under the Federal Food,
Drug and Cosmetic Act.
An adjuvant is a chemical substance
separately added to a pesticide product
(typically as part of a spray tank
mixture). Since pesticide adjuvant
products do not make pesticidal claims,
they are not pesticides, and the
components of adjuvants are therefore
not pesticide inert ingredients.
Adjuvants are not included in the inert
ingredient approval process and are
therefore unaffected by this policy.
While adjuvants may need tolerances or
tolerance exemptions in some cases,
tolerances and exemptions are separate
from the inert ingredient approval
process.
5. No impact to the fragrance
ingredient listing. One commenter noted
that a few inert ingredients proposed for
removal from the chemical substance
list appear on the EPA Fragrance
Ingredient List (FIL).
The EPA FIL comprises more than
1,500 fragrance component ingredients
that have undergone Agency evaluation
to determine their suitability for safe use
as components of fragrances in nonfooduse pesticide product formulations in
accordance with the Fragrance
Notification Program. Removal of an
inert ingredient from the approved inert
ingredient listing does not preclude use
as a fragrance ingredient as part of the
Fragrance Notification Program
provided that inert ingredient is listed
on the FIL and use in a pesticide
formulation is consistent with the
Fragrance Notification Process. The
inert ingredients no longer used in
registered pesticide products will be
removed from the approved inert
ingredient listing but these same
ingredients will not be removed from
the FIL.
6. Impurities. Some commenters want
EPA to clarify that removing the
chemical substances from the list does
not prohibit the use of these chemical
substances being classified as residual
impurities in approved inert
ingredients.
The definition of inert ingredient as
given in 40 CFR 152.3 applies to
chemical substances used as inert
ingredients that are ‘‘intentionally
included in a pesticide product’’ and as
such the removal of a chemical
substance from the approved inert
ingredient list does not apply to
circumstances where the chemical
substance may be present as an
impurity. Impurities in pesticide
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:45 Dec 13, 2016
Jkt 241001
products are considered on a case-bycase basis as part of the Agency’s
pesticide product registration process.
As part of that evaluation, the Agency
looks at the identity and amount of an
impurity in the product manufacturing
information, and the steps taken to limit
or remove impurities.
7. Confirming the ingredient use in
current pesticide products. Some
commenters suggested that EPA provide
them more time to investigate whether
any of the 72 chemical substances are
used in currently registered products.
EPA records include no Confidential
Statements of Formula for any currently
registered pesticide product that list any
of these chemical substances. However,
if a registrant or a producer of
proprietary mixtures identifies an active
registration that contains one of the
chemical substances that has now been
removed from the approved inert
ingredient listing, that registrant or
producer should contact the Agency
directly, using the contact for listing
inquiries that is provided under FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. If EPA
confirms that the chemical substance is
contained in a currently registered
product, the Agency will restore the
chemical substance to the list of
approved inert ingredients.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501–3521, federal
agencies must get OMB approval for
each collection of information they
conduct or sponsor. ‘‘Collection of
information’’ includes agency requests
or requirements to submit reports, keep
records, or provide information to a
third party. 44 U.S.C. 3502(3); 5 CFR
1320.3(c). The FTC seeks clearance for
its assumed share of the estimated PRA
burden regarding the disclosure
requirements under the FTC and CFPB
Rules.
On August 15, 2016, the FTC sought
public comment on the consumer
notification (‘‘disclosure’’) requirements
associated with the FTC Rule (August
15, 2016 Notice 1), the FTC’s shared
enforcement with the CFPB of the
disclosure provisions of the CFPB Rule,
and the FTC’s associated PRA burden
analysis. No relevant comments were
received. The FTC provisionally retains

estimates subject to further public

comment. For details about the FTC and
CFPB Rules’ disclosure requirements,
the background behind them, and the
basis for the burden-related estimates
stated below, see the August 15, 2016
Notice.2
Pursuant to the OMB regulations, 5
CFR part 1320, that implement the PRA,
44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., the FTC is
providing this second opportunity for
public comment while seeking OMB
renewed clearance regarding the FTC’s
enforcement of and PRA burden
estimates for the disclosure
requirements at issue.
Burden Statement
A. Non-GLBA Entities
1. 894,969 annualized burden hours
2. $35,626,785 annualized labor cost
These estimates include the start-up
burden and attendant costs, such as
determining compliance obligations.
B. GLBA Entities
1. 15,633 annualized burden hours
2. $818,059 annualized labor cost
C. FTC Share of Estimated PRA Burden
1. 460,205 annualized burden hours
2. $18,472,938 annualized labor cost
The FTC’s share of total estimated
burden for affected entities includes the
increment apportioned to the FTC
reflective of its sole jurisdiction over
certain motor vehicle dealers. Capital
and other non-labor costs should be
minimal, at most, since the Rule has
been in effect several years, with
covered entities now equipped to
provide the required notice.
