Abstract: This ICR covers the paperwork burden hours and costs associated with the information collection activities under the pesticide registration fee programs implemented through EPA’s Office of Pesticide Programs. Pesticide registrants are required by statute to pay an annual registration maintenance fee for all products registered under Section 3 and Section 24(c) of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). In addition, the Pesticide Registration Improvement Act (PRIA) amended FIFRA in 2004 to create a registration service fee system for applications for specific pesticide registration, amended registration, and associated tolerance actions (Section 33). This mandatory collection specifically covers the activities related to the annual registration maintenance fees, the registration service fees and the burden associated with the submission of requests for fees to be waived. Respondents/Affected Entities: Entities potentially affected by this ICR are pesticide and other agricultural chemical manufacturers, other basic inorganic chemical manufacturers, other basic organic chemical manufacturers, and regulators of agricultural marketing commodities. Respondent’s Obligation To Respond: This information collection is mandatory under FIFRA sections 4(i)(5) and 33. Estimated Total Number of Potential Respondents: 1,471 Frequency of Response: Annual and on occasion. Estimated Total Burden: Ranges from 1,681 to 6,840 hours per year depending E:\FR\FM\09AUN1.SGM 09AUN1 37218 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 152 / Wednesday, August 9, 2017 / Notices on the program. Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Estimated Total Costs: $63,971 (per year). There are no annualized capital investment or maintenance and operational costs. Changes in the Estimates: The total annual burden for respondents associated with pesticide product registration maintenance fee is 1,681 hours, a decrease from 1,993 hours as previously reported in the last ICR. The reason for the decrease was a slight refinement in the estimate per response from 1.14 hours to 1.13 hours and a reduction in the number responses from 1,744 to 1,471. Costs increased since the last renewal because of labor cost increases. The total estimated annual respondent burden for the pesticide registration service fee waivers information collection has increased about 15% from 5,914 hours in the existing ICR to 6,840 hours for this renewal, due to the increase of respondent’s usage of the newer waiver provisions allowed under the law.
