*Abstract:*                     The Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) section 6(a)(2) requires pesticide registrants to submit information to the Agency which may be relevant to the balancing of the risks and benefits of a pesticide product. The statute requires the registrant to submit any factual information that it acquires regarding adverse effects associated with its pesticidal products, and it is up to the Agency to determine whether or not that factual information constitutes an unreasonable adverse effect. In order to limit the amount of less meaningful information that might be submitted to the Agency, the EPA has limited the scope of factual information that the registrant must submit. The Agency's regulations at 40 CFR part 159 provide a detailed description of the reporting obligations of registrants under FIFRA section 6(a)(2).                

*Form Numbers:*                     None.                

*Respondents/affected entities:*                     Pesticide and other agricultural chemical manufacturing.                

*Respondent's obligation to respond:*                     Mandatory under FIFRA section 6(a)(2).                

*Estimated number of respondents:*                     1,452 (total).                

*Frequency of response:*                     On occasion.                

*Total estimated burden:*                     301,118 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).                

*Total estimated cost:*                     $19,999,815 (per year), includes no annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.                

*Changes in the Estimates:*                     There is no change in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB.
