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: FIFRA allows the EPA to 

classify a pesticide as ‘‘restricted use’’ if 

the pesticide meets certain toxicity or 

risk criteria. Restricted use pesticides, 

because of their potential to harm 

human health or the environment, may 

be applied only by a certified applicator 

or by a person under the direct 

supervision of a certified applicator. A 

person must meet certain standards of 

competency to become a certified 

applicator. States can be delegated the 

certified applicator program, but it must 

be approved by the Agency before it can 

be implemented. In non-participating 

entities, EPA administers the 

certification program. 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to a collection of information 

that is subject to approval under the 

PRA, unless it displays a currently valid 

OMB control number. The OMB control 

numbers for EPA’s information 

collections appear on the collection 

instruments or instructions, in the 

Federal Register notices for related 

rulemakings and ICR notices, and, if the 

collection is contained in a regulation, 

in a table of OMB approval numbers in 

40 CFR part 9. 

Burden Statement: The annual 

‘‘respondent’’ burden for this ICR is 

estimated to be 4,412 hours. 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 OMB control number for 

this information collection appear at the 

beginning and the end of this document. 

In addition OMB control numbers for 

EPA’s regulations, after initial display in 

the final rule, are listed in 40 CFR part 

9. 

The following is a summary of the 

burden estimates taken from the ICR: 

Respondents/affected entities: You 

may be affected by this action if you run 

an EPA approved certified pesticide 

applicator program for restricted use 

pesticides or are a certified pesticide 

applicator using restricted use 

pesticides that must comply with 

requirements of Section 11 of the 

Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and 

Rodenticide Act and 40 CFR part 171. 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 424,398. 

Frequency of response: As needed or 

annually, depending on the category of 

respondent. 

Estimated total/average number of 

responses for each respondent: 1–3. 

Estimated total annual burden hours:

1,311,368. 

Estimated total annual costs:

$25,108,623. 

Changes in the ICR since the last 

approval:

The estimated paperwork burden has 

increased slightly from 1,285,865 to 

1,311,368 hours due to an expected 

increase in the number of certified 

commercial applicators participating in 

the EPA-administered program. EPA 

will begin administering a private 

applicator program in the Navajo Indian 

Country within the next 3 years, thus 

increasing the number of applicators 

subject to the information collection 

activities. The cost burden has risen as 

well, primarily as a result of inflation 

from $21,456,058 to $25,108,623.

1. On September 28, 2004, the Federal 

Communications Commission’s 

(Commission) Wireless 

Telecommunications Bureau (Bureau) 

began its license audit of the operational 

status all site-specific licenses 

authorized in the Paging and 

Radiotelephone Service, part 22, subpart 

E, and site-specific licenses authorized 

on private carrier paging exclusive

channels in the 929–930 MHz band, part 

90, subpart P. 

2. Every licensee holding 

authorizations in the above radio 

services must respond and certify, by 

November 12, 2004, that its authorized 

station(s) has not permanently 

discontinued operations from the date 

of initial constriction and operation 

pursuant to 47 CFR 22.317. 

3. Audit letters were mailed to the 

licensees at their address of record. If a 

licensee received more than one audit 

letter, they must respond to each letter 

sent by the Commission in order to 

account for all of its call signs that are 

part of the audit. Licensees can use the 

Audit Search at http://wireless.fcc.gov/

licensing/audits/paging to determine if a 

particular call sign is part of the audit. 

If the Audit Search shows a letter was 

mailed, the licensee is required to 

respond to the audit even though the 

audit letter was not received. For 

instructions on how to proceed in this 

instance, licensees should call the 

Commission at 717–338–2888 or 888-

option 2. 

4. The process for responding to the 

audit was included in the audit letter. 

A response is mandatory and must be 

submitted electronically by November 

12, 2004. Failure to provide a timely 

response may result in the Commission 

presuming that the station(s) has 

permanently discontinued operations as 

described under 47 CFR 22.317, and 

thus the license may be presumed to 

have automatically cancelled. Failure to 

provide a timely response may also 

result in an enforcement action, 

including monetary forfeiture, pursuant 

to section 503(b)(1)(B) of the 

Communications Act and 47 CFR 

1.80(a)(2).
