ICR status: Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the collection of information while this submission is pending at PO 00000 Frm 00040 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 OMB. Under PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers are displayed either by publication in the Federal Register or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers for certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. Abstract: This ICR estimates the recordkeeping and third-party response burden of paperwork activities that covers the information collection requirements contained in the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) regulations at 40 CFR part 170. These requirements were updated in a 2015 Final Rule (80 FR 67495, November 2, 2015) that amended 40 CFR part 170. Prior to the regulatory update, the WPS regulations already had provisions for training and notification of pesticide-related information for workers who enter pesticide-treated areas after pesticide application to perform crop-related tasks, as well as for handlers who mix, load, and apply pesticides. Agricultural employers and commercial pesticide handling establishments are responsible for providing required training, notifications and information to their employees to ensure worker and handler safety. The changes to the regulation in 2015 improved protections and included revisions to many of the provisions as well as the addition of new requirements. The WPS regulation now includes expanded and more frequent training for workers and handlers, improved posting of pesticidetreated areas, additional information for workers before they enter a pesticidetreated area while a restricted entry interval is in effect, access to more general and application-specific information about pesticides used on the establishment, and recordkeeping of training to improve enforceability and compliance. Respondents/Affected Entities: Agricultural employers on agricultural establishments, including employers in farms as well as in nursery, forestry, and greenhouse establishments. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR 170). Estimated total number of potential respondents: Approximately 985,000 agricultural establishments/employers and approximately 1,995,000 agricultural workers/handlers. Frequency of response: Annually or on occasion, depending on the activity. E:\FR\FM\19FEN1.SGM 19FEN1 Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 33 / Tuesday, February 19, 2019 / Notices Total estimated annual burden: 10,448,160 hours. Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated annual costs: $433,264,055, includes no annualized capital investment or maintenance and operational costs. Changes in the estimates: There is no change in the number of hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with that identified in the ICR currently approved by OMB. There is an increase of 3,220 respondents, which is the result of a correction to the Agency’s previously reported bottom-line annual estimates. Although the full burden analysis for the currently approved ICR properly accounted for burden imposed on these respondents, these respondents were inadvertently omitted from the total number of respondents reported to OMB. This change is an adjustment. Courtney Kerwin, Director, Collection Strategies Division.

    ICR status: Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to

is pending at OMB. Under PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., an agency may not 
conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a 
collection of information, unless it displays a currently valid OMB

display of OMB control numbers for certain EPA regulations is 
consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.
    Abstract: This ICR estimates the recordkeeping and third-party

    Changes in the estimates: There is no change in the number of hours 
in the total estimated respondent burden compared with that identified
