SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. What information is EPA particularly 

interested in? 

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

(44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)), EPA 

specifically solicits comments and 

information to enable it to: 

1. 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. 

2. Evaluate the accuracy of the 

Agency’s estimates of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used. 

3. Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected. 

4. 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. In 

particular, EPA is requesting comments 

from very small businesses (those that 

employ less than 25) on examples of 

specific additional efforts that EPA 

could make to reduce the paperwork 

burden for very small businesses 

affected by this collection. 

II. What should I consider when I 

prepare my comments for EPA? 

You may find the following 

suggestions helpful for preparing your 

comments: 

1. Explain your views as clearly as 

possible and provide specific examples. 

2. Describe any assumptions that you 

used. 

3. Provide copies of any technical 

information and/or data you used that 

support your views. 

4. If you estimate potential burden or 

costs, explain how you arrived at the 

estimate that you provide. 

5. Submit your comments by the 

deadline identified under DATES. 

6. Identify the docket ID number 

assigned to the ICR action in the subject 

line on the first page of your response. 

You may also provide the ICR title and 

related EPA and OMB numbers. 

III. What do I need to know about PRA? 

An Agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to a collection of information 

subject to PRA approval unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number. The OMB control numbers for 

the EPA regulations in title 40 of the 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), after 

appearing in the preamble of the final 

rule, are further displayed either by 

publication in the Federal Register or 

by other appropriate means, such as on 

the related collection instruments or 

form, if applicable. The display of OMB 

control numbers for certain EPA 

regulations is consolidated in a list at 40 

CFR 9.1. 

As used in the PRA context, burden 

is defined in 5 CFR 1320.3(b). 

IV. Which ICRs are being renewed? 

EPA is planning to submit a number 

of currently approved ICRs to OMB for 

review and approval under PRA. In 

addition to specifically identifying the 

ICRs by title and corresponding ICR, 

OMB and docket ID numbers, this unit 

provides a brief summary of the 

information collection activity and the 

Agency’s estimated burden. The 

supporting statement for each ICR, a 

copy of which is available in the 

corresponding docket, provides a more 

detailed explanation. 

A. Docket ID Number EPA–HQ–OPP– 

2013–0493 

Title: Compliance Requirement for 

Child Resistant Packaging. 

ICR number: 0616.11. 

OMB control number: 2070–0052. 

ICR status: The approval for this ICR 

is scheduled to expire on May 31, 2014. 

Abstract: This information collection 

program is designed to provide EPA 

with assurances that the packaging of 

pesticide products sold and distributed 

to the general public in the United 

States meets standards set forth by the 

Agency pursuant to the Federal 

Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide 

Act (FIFRA). Registrants must certify to 

the Agency that the packaging or device 

meets these standards. Section 25(c)(3) 

of FIFRA authorizes EPA to establish 

standards for packaging of pesticide 

products and pesticidal devices to 

protect children and adults from serious 

illness or injury resulting from 

accidental ingestion or contact. The law 

requires that these standards are 

designed to be consistent with those 

under the Poison Prevention Packaging 

Act, administered by the Consumer 

Product Safety Commission (CPSC). 

Unless a pesticide product qualifies for 

an exemption, if the product meets 

certain criteria regarding toxicity and 

use, it must be sold and distributed in 

child-resistant packaging. 

Burden statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 7.9 hours per 

response. The ICR, a copy of which is 

available in the docket, provides a 

detailed explanation of this estimate, 

which is only briefly summarized here: 

Respondents/Affected entities: 

Entities potentially affected by this ICR 

include large and small entities engaged 

in manufacturing pesticide chemicals, 

wholesale merchandizing of pesticide 

products, or pest management activities. 

The North American Industrial 

Classification System (NAICS) codes for 

respondents under this ICR include 

325320 (Pesticide and other Agricultural 

Chemical Manufacturing), 424690 

(Other Chemical and Allied Products 

Merchant Wholesalers), and 561710 

(Exterminating and Pest Control 

Services). 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 1733. 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: 1. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

5,401 hours. 

Estimated total annual costs: 

$300,715. There are no non-burden hour 

paperwork costs, e.g., investment or 

maintenance and operational costs, 

included in this information collection. 

Changes in the estimates from the last 

approval: The renewal of this ICR will 

result in an overall increase of 508 

hours in the total estimated respondent 

burden identified in the currently 

approved ICR. This increase reflects 

EPA’s updating of burden estimates for 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

59016 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 186 / Wednesday, September 25, 2013 / Notices 

this collection based upon historical 

information on the number and type of 

child-resistant packaging (CRP) 

certifications submitted to the agency. 

Based upon revised estimates, the 

number of CRP submissions is expected 

to decrease from 1,165 to 685. However, 

a change in the distribution of response 

types from less-burdensome to moreburdensome responses resulted in an 

increase in the average burden hours per 

response from 4.2 hours to 7.9 hours per 

submission. This change is an 

adjustment. 

B. Docket ID Number EPA–HQ–OPP– 

2013–0494 

Title: Plant-Incorporated Protectants; 

CBI Substantiation and Adverse Effects 

Reporting. 

ICR number: 1693.08. 

OMB control number: 2070–0142. 

ICR status: The approval for this ICR 

is scheduled to expire on June 30, 2014. 

Abstract: This ICR addresses the two 

information collection requirements 

described in regulations pertaining to 

pesticidal substances that are produced 

by plants (plant-incorporated 

protectants) and which are codified in 

40 CFR part 174. A plant-incorporated 

protectant is defined as ‘‘the pesticidal 

substance that is intended to be 

produced and used in a living plant and 

the genetic material necessary for the 

production of such a substance.’’ Many, 

but not all, plant-incorporated 

protectants are exempt from registration 

requirements under FIFRA. Registrants 

sometimes include in a submission to 

EPA for registration of plantincorporated protectants information 

that they claim to be CBI. CBI is 

protected by FIFRA and generally 

cannot be released to the public. Under 

40 CFR part 174, whenever a registrant 

claims that information submitted to 

EPA in support of a registration 

application for plant-incorporated 

protectants contains CBI, the registrant 

must substantiate such claims when 

they are made, rather than provide it 

later upon request by EPA. In addition, 

manufacturers of plant-incorporated 

protectants that are otherwise exempted 

from the requirements of registration 

must report adverse effects of the plantincorporated protectant to the Agency. 

Such reporting will allow the Agency to 

determine whether further action is 

needed to prevent unreasonable adverse 

effects to the environment. 

Burden statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 21.5 hours per CBI 

substantiation and 7 hours per adverse 

effects reporting response. The ICR, a 

copy of which is available in the docket, 

provides a detailed explanation of this 

estimate, which is only briefly 

summarized here: 

Respondents/Affected entities: 

Entities potentially affected by this ICR 

include producers and importers of 

plant-incorporated protectants. The 

NAICS codes for respondents under this 

ICR include: 325320 (Pesticide and 

other Agricultural Chemical 

Manufacturing), 325414 (Biological 

Products (except Diagnostic) 

Manufacturing), 422910 (Farm Supplies 

Wholesalers), 422930 (Flower, Nursery 

Stock, and Florist’s Suppliers), 541710 

(Research and Development in the 

Physical, Engineering, and Life 

Sciences), and 611310 (Colleges, 

Universities, and Professional Schools). 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 20. 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: 1. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

432 hours. 

Estimated total annual costs: $31,371. 

There are no non-burden hour 

paperwork costs, e.g., investment or 

maintenance and operational costs, 

included in this information collection. 

Changes in the estimates from the last 

approval: The renewal of this ICR will 

result in an overall increase of 43 hours, 

in the total estimated respondent 

burden identified in the currently 

approved ICR. This increase reflects 

EPA’s updating of burden estimates for 

this collection based upon historical 

information on the number of CBI 

substantiations per year. Based upon 

revised estimates, the number of CBI 

substantiations per year has increased 

from 18 to 20, with a corresponding 

increase in the associated burden. This 

change is an adjustment. 

C. Docket ID Number EPA–HQ–OPP– 

2013–0617 

Title: Experimental Use Permits 

(EUPs) for Pesticides. 

ICR number: 0276.15. 

OMB control number: 2070–0040. 

ICR status: The approval for this ICR 

is scheduled to expire on June 30, 2014. 

Abstract: FIFRA requires that before a 

pesticide product may be distributed or 

sold in the United States, it must be 

registered by EPA. Section 5 of FIFRA 

authorizes EPA to issue experimental 

use permits (EUPs) which allow 

companies to temporarily ship pesticide 

products for experimental use for the 

purpose of gathering data necessary to 

support the application for registration 

of a pesticide product. In general, EUPs 

are issued either for a pesticide not 

registered with the Agency or for a new 

use of a registered pesticide. The EUP 

application must be submitted in order 

to obtain a permit. This information 

collection provides EPA with the data 

necessary to determine whether to issue 

a EUP under section 5 of FIFRA. 

Burden statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 32.8 hours, per 

chemical pesticide EUP response and 

147 hours, per plant-incorporated 

protectants EUP response. The ICR, a 

copy of which is available in the docket, 

provides a detailed explanation of this 

estimate, which is only briefly 

summarized here: 

Respondents/Affected entities: 

Entities potentially affected by this ICR 

include individuals or entities engaged 

in pesticide, fertilizer, and other 

agricultural chemical manufacturing. 

The NAICS codes for respondents under 

this ICR include: 325320 (Pesticide and 

other Agricultural Chemical 

Manufacturing). 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 30. 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: 1. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

556 hours. 

Estimated total annual costs: $33,872. 

There are no non-burden hour 

paperwork costs, e.g., investment or 

maintenance and operational costs, 

included in this information collection. 

Changes in the estimates from the last 

approval: The renewal of this ICR will 

result in an overall decrease of 1,351 

hours in the total estimated respondent 

burden identified in the currently 

approved ICR. This decrease reflects 

EPA’s updating of burden estimates for 

this collection based upon historical 

information on the reduced number of 

EUP submissions for chemical 

pesticides, as well as a decrease in the 

number of EUP applications that are 

plant-incorporated protectants. This 

change is an adjustment. 

V. What is the next step in the process 

for these ICRs? 

EPA will consider the comments 

received and amend the individual ICRs 

as appropriate. The final ICR packages 

will then be submitted to OMB for 

review and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 

1320.12. EPA will issue another Federal 

Register document pursuant to 5 CFR 

1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to announce the 

submission of these ICRs to OMB and 

the opportunity for the public to submit 

additional comments for OMB 

consideration. If you have any questions 

about any of these ICRs or the approval 

process in general, please contact the

Abstract: The USEPA Office of 

Research and Development is 

investigating public values for scenarios 

of change for perennial reaches of the 

effluent-dominated Santa Cruz River, 

Arizona. These values will be estimated 

via a willingness to pay mail survey 

instrument. There are two effluentdominated perennial reaches considered 

in the survey. A ‘‘South’’ reach starts at 

an outfall in Rio Rico, AZ, and flows 

northward through Tumaca ́cori National 

Historical Park. A ‘‘North’’ reach is fed 

by two outfalls in northwest Tucson, 

Arizona, flows northwest through 

Marana, AZ. For each of the South and 

North reaches, two different scenarios of 

change are considered. The first is a 

reduction in flow length, and associated 

decreases in cottonwood-willow 

riparian forest, a rare forest type in the 

region. The second is an increase in 

water quality to allow full contact 

recreation, such as submersion, at 

normal flow levels. The baseline flow 

length and forest acreages, as well as the 

acreages of forest that would be 

associated with reduced flow lengths, 

are derived from natural science 

information and modeling. For the 

survey, a choice experiment framework 

is used with statistically designed 

alternative choices. Options to maintain 

flow length and forest, or increase 

effluent water quality, are posed as 

increases in a yearly household tax. 

Each choice question allows a zero cost 

‘‘opt out’’ option. The choice 

experiment is designed to allow 

isolation of the public value of each 

marginal change for each reach. A few 

additional questions to further 

understand respondent choice 

motivations, as well as their riverrelated recreation behavior, are also 

included. Several pages of background 

introduce the issue to respondents. A 

small number of sociodemographic 

questions are included to gauge how 

well the sample respondents represent 

the target population. Samples of the 

two major metropolitan areas in 

southern Arizona, Phoenix and Tucson, 

will receive the survey. The primary 

reason for the survey is public value 

research. The Santa Cruz River is a case 

study of a waterway highly impacted by 

human modifications. However it still 

represents potentially valuable 

ecological commodities such as rare 

riparian habitat and recreational 

opportunities for the regional 

population. The survey results may also 

be informative to local decision-makers 

considering Santa Cruz River 

management options. Water scarcity in 

the region raises periodic debates on the 

best uses of effluent. All survey 

responses will be kept confidential. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: The 

target respondents for this survey are 

representatives 18 yrs or older of 

households in the two most populated 

urban areas of Arizona, the Phoenix 

metro area, and the Tucson metro area. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Voluntary. 

Estimated number of respondents: 

500 households. 

Frequency of response: One-time 

response. 

Total estimated burden: 250 hours. 

Total estimated cost: $5,275, which 

includes no operations and maintenance 

costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: This is a 

new ICR, thus there is no currently 

approved burden.
