(OMB) for review and approval in 

accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et 

seq.). Before doing so, EPA is soliciting 

public comments on specific aspects of 

the proposed information collection as 

described below. This is a proposed 

extension of the ICR, which is currently 

approved through September 30, 2013. 

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. 

DATES: Comments must be submitted on 

or before May 14, 2013. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, 

referencing Docket ID No. EPA–HQ– 

OAR–2006–0894, online using 

www.regulations.gov (our preferred 

method), by email to a-and-rdocket@epa.gov, or by mail to: EPA 

Docket Center, Environmental 

Protection Agency, Mail Code 28221T,

DC. The telephone number for the 

Docket Center is 202–566–1744. For 

additional information about EPA’s 

public docket, visit http://www.epa.gov/ 

dockets. 

Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of 

the PRA, EPA is soliciting comments 

and information to enable it to: (i) 

Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the Agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; (ii) evaluate the 

accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the 

burden of the proposed collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used; 

(iii) enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (iv) minimize the burden 

of the collection of information on those 

who are to respond, including through 

the use of appropriate automated 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submission of 

responses. EPA will consider the 

comments received and amend the ICR 

as appropriate. The final ICR package 

will then be submitted to OMB for 

review and approval. At that time, EPA 

will issue another Federal Register 

notice to announce the submission of 

the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to 

submit additional comments to OMB. 

Abstract: In accordance with the 

regulations at 40 CFR part 79, subparts 

A, B, C, and D, Registration of Fuels and 

Fuel Additives, manufacturers 

(including importers) of motor-vehicle 

gasoline, motor-vehicle diesel fuel, and 

additives for those fuels, are required to 

have these products registered by EPA 

prior to their introduction into 

commerce. Registration involves 

providing a chemical description of the 

fuel or additive, and certain technical, 

marketing, and health-effects 

information. The development of 

health-effects data, as required by 40 

CFR part 79, subpart F, is covered by a 

separate information collection. 

Manufacturers are also required to 

submit periodic reports (annually for 

additives, quarterly and annually for 

fuels) on production volume and related 

information. The information is used to 

identify products whose evaporative or 

combustion emissions may pose an 

unreasonable risk to public health, thus 

meriting further investigation and 

potential regulation. The information is 

also used to ensure that fuel additives 

comply with EPA requirements for 

protecting catalytic converters and other 

automotive emission controls. The data 

have been used to construct a 

comprehensive data base on fuel and 

additive composition. The Mine Safety 

and Health Administration of the 

Department of Labor restricts the use of 

diesel additives in underground coal 

mines to those registered by EPA. Most 

of the information is business 

confidential. 

Form Numbers: EPA Forms 3520–12, 

3520–12A, 3520–12Q, 3520–13, 3520– 

13A, and 3520–13B. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Manufacturers and importers of motorvehicle gasoline, motor-vehicle diesel 

fuel, and additives to those fuels. 

Respondents obligation to respond: 

Mandatory per 40 CFR part 79. 

Estimated number of respondents: 

1950. 

Frequency of response: On occasion, 

quarterly, annually. 

Total estimated burden: 20,600 hours 

per year. Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $1.9 million per 

year, includes $45,000 annualized 

capital or operation & maintenance 

costs. 

Changes in estimates: There is an 

increase of 900 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. This increase is due to an 

increase in the number of registered 

fuels for which quarterly and annual 

reports are required.

Director, Compliance Division, Office of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. General Information 

A. Does this action apply to me? 

This action is directed to the public 

in general. Although this action may be 

of particular interest to those persons 

who conduct or sponsor research on 

pesticides, the Agency has not 

attempted to describe all the specific 

entities that may be affected by this 

action. 

B. What should I consider as I prepare 

my comments for EPA? 

1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this 

information to EPA through 

regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark 

the part or all of the information that 

you claim to be CBI. For CBI 

information in a disk or CD–ROM that 

you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the 

disk or CD–ROM as CBI and then 

identify electronically within the disk or 

CD–ROM the specific information that 

is claimed as CBI. In addition to one 

complete version of the comment that 

includes information claimed as CBI, a 

copy of the comment that does not 

contain the information claimed as CBI 

must be submitted for inclusion in the 

public docket. Information so marked 

will not be disclosed except in 

accordance with procedures set forth in 

40 CFR part 2. 

2. Tips for preparing your comments. 

When submitting comments, remember 

to: 

i. Identify the document by docket ID 

number and other identifying 

information (subject heading, Federal 

Register date and page number). 

ii. Follow directions. The Agency may 

ask you to respond to specific questions 

or organize comments by referencing a 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 

or section number. 

iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; 

suggest alternatives and substitute 

language for your requested changes. 

iv. Describe any assumptions and 

provide any technical information and/ 

or data that you used. 

v. If you estimate potential costs or 

burdens, explain how you arrived at 

your estimate in sufficient detail to 

allow for it to be reproduced. 

vi. Provide specific examples to 

illustrate your concerns and suggest 

alternatives. 

vii. Explain your views as clearly as 

possible, avoiding the use of profanity 

or personal threats. 

viii. Make sure to submit your 

comments by the comment period 

deadline identified. 

3. Environmental justice. EPA seeks to 

achieve environmental justice, the fair 

treatment and meaningful involvement 

of any group, including minority and/or 

low income populations, in the 

development, implementation, and 

enforcement of environmental laws, 

regulations, and policies. To help 

address potential environmental justice 

issues, the Agency seeks information on 

any groups or segments of the 

population who, as a result of their 

location, cultural practices, or other 

factors, may have atypical or 

disproportionately high and adverse 

human health impacts or environmental 

effects from exposure to the pesticide(s) 

discussed in this document, compared 

to the general population. 

II. What action is the agency taking? 

Under section 5 of the Federal 

Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide 

Act (FIFRA), 7 U.S.C. 136c, EPA can 

allow manufacturers to field test 

pesticides under development. 

Manufacturers are required to obtain an 

EUP before testing new pesticides or 

new uses of pesticides if they conduct 

experimental field tests on 10 acres or 

more of land or one acre or more of 

water. A copy of the applications and 

any information submitted is available 

for public review in the docket 

established for these EUP applications. 

Following the review of the application 

and any comments and data received in 

response to this solicitation, EPA will 

decide whether to issue or deny the EUP 

request, and if issued, the conditions 

under which it is to be conducted. Any 

issuance of an EUP will be announced 

in the Federal Register. 

Therefore, pursuant to 40 CFR 

172.11(a), the Agency has determined 

that the following EUP applications may 

be of regional and national significance, 

and therefore is seeking public comment 

on the following EUP applications:
