57908 Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 187 / Tuesday, September 28, 2004 / Notices 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA has 

submitted the following ICR to OMB for 

review and approval according to the 

procedures prescribed in 5 CFR 1320.12. 

The Federal Register document, 

required under 5 CFR 1320.8(d), 

soliciting comments on this collection 

of information was published on June 2, 

2004 (69 FR 31095). EPA received one 

public comment on this ICR during the 

60-day comment period and has 

addressed it in the ICR. 

EPA has established a public docket 

for this ICR under Docket ID No. OPP–

2004–0110, which is available for public 

viewing at the Public Information and 

Records Integrity Branch (PIRIB), Rm. 

119, Crystal Mall #2, 1801 Bell St., 

Arlington, VA. This docket facility is 

open from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday 

through Friday, excluding legal 

holidays. The docket telephone number 

is (703) 305–5805. An electronic version 

of the public docket is available through 

EPA Dockets (EDOCKET) at http://

www.epa.gov/edocket. Use EDOCKET to 

submit or view public comments, access 

the index listing of the contents of the 

public docket, and to access those 

documents in the public docket that are 

available electronically. Once in the 

system, select ‘‘search,’’ then key in the 

docket ID number identified above. 

Any comments related to this ICR 

should be submitted to EPA and OMB 

within 30 days of this notice. Please 

note, EPA’s policy is that public 

comments, whether submitted 

electronically or on paper, will be made 

available for public viewing in 

EDOCKET as EPA receives them and 

without change, unless the comment 

contains copyrighted material, CBI, or 

other information whose public 

disclosure is restricted by statute. When 

EPA identifies a comment containing 

copyrighted material, EPA will provide 

a reference to that material in the 

version of the comment that is placed in 

EDOCKET. The entire printed comment, 

including the copyrighted material, will 

be available in the public docket. 

Although identified as an item in the 

official docket, information claimed as 

CBI, or whose disclosure is otherwise 

restricted by statute, is not included in 

the official public docket, and will not 

be available for public viewing in 

EDOCKET. For further information 

about the electronic docket, see EPA’s 

Federal Register notice describing the 

electronic docket at 67 FR 38102 (May

ICR Title: Data Generation for 

Pesticide Reregistration. 

ICR Status: This is a request for 

extension of an existing approved 

collection that is currently scheduled to 

expire on September 30, 2004. EPA is 

asking OMB to approve this ICR for 

three years. Under 5 CFR 1320.12(b)(2), 

the Agency may continue to conduct or 

sponsor the collection of information 

while the submission is pending at 

OMB. 

Abstract: This information collection 

activity enables EPA to fulfill the 

requirements of the Federal Insecticide, 

Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act 

(FIFRA), as amended in 1988, which 

mandates that EPA reregister pesticides 

originally registered before November 1, 

1984. Section 4 of FIFRA, as amended, 

establishes a process and a schedule for 

the development of the information EPA 

needs (e.g., various scientific studies 

related to certain pesticides) to assess 

whether the reregistration of a pesticide 

or pesticide product would cause an 

unreasonable adverse effect on human 

health or the environment. Pesticide 

registrants seeking reregistration must 

generate and report the required data 

according to specified time tables.

This information collection will also 

enable EPA to collect certain company 

data about pesticide registrants that may 

be needed in order to verify eligibility 

for certain waivers and exemptions. The 

information collection allows EPA’s 

Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP) to 

obtain data needed by OPP scientists to 

assess and characterize pesticide risks, 

and for risk managers to determine 

whether and under what conditions 

pesticides may be reregistered and to 

reassess existing tolerances as required 

by Section 408 of the Federal Food Drug 

and Cosmetic Act to ensure that they 

meet the standards established by law. 

Data collected may consist of toxicology 

studies, residue chemistry studies, fish 

and wildlife studies, environmental fate 

studies, or other data needed to analyze 

the potential risks associated with 

pesticide chemicals and products. This 

collection also supports the Agency’s 

reassessment of food tolerances 

associated with reregistration. 

Responses to this information collection 

activity are generally required in order 

to maintain a benefit (i.e., in order to 

reregister certain pesticides). 

Burden Statement: The annual 

‘‘respondent’’ burden for this ICR is 

estimated to average about 596 hours 

per response to an EPA request for 

confirmatory data, 2,560 hours per 

response for an EPA request for productspecific data, 596 hours per response for 

any voluntarily submitted data 

considered to be ‘‘low burden’’ and 

3,587 hours per response for any 

voluntarily submitted data considered 

to be ‘‘high burden.’’ According to the 

Paperwork Reduction Act, ‘‘burden’’

means the total time, effort, or financial 

resources expended by persons to 

generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or 

provide information to or for a Federal 

agency. For this collection, it is the time 

reading the regulations, planning the 

necessary data collection activities, 

conducting tests, analyzing data, 

generating reports and completing other 

required paperwork, and storing, filing, 

and maintaining the data. The 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 following is a summary of the 

burden estimates taken from the ICR: 

Respondents/affected entities:

Pesticide and other agricultural 

chemical manufacturing (NAICS 

325320), e.g., Businesses engaged in the 

manufacture of pesticides. 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 1,565. 

Frequency of response: As needed. 

Estimated total/average number of 

responses for each respondent: 1. 

Estimated total annual burden hours:

275,063. 

Estimated total annual labor costs:

$24,529,295. 

Changes in the ICR since the last 

approval: The estimated annual burden 

for this ICR has increased by 184,338 

hours (from 90,725 hours to 275,063 

hours) related primarily to an increase 

of the average number of chemicals for 

which EPA will annually request certain 

data before they may be reregistered. 

This increase is an adjustment and is 

explained in detail in the ICR.
