    Title: Use of Surveys in Developing Improved Labeling for Insect 
Repellent Products.
    ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 2425.01, OMB Control No. 2070-new.
    ICR Status: This is a new ICR.
    Abstract: This ICR is for new information collection, a one-time 
Internet survey, for consumer research. The goals of the Internet 
survey are to (1) Identify the types of information that users of 
insect repellents want on the label of an insect repellent and (2) test 
four versions of efficacy marks, a graphic that could be placed on the 
front label of an insect repellent, that would standardize the 
presentation of information on how long the insect repellent repels 
ticks and mosquitoes. For the first efficacy mark viewed, participants 
would provide information on their understanding of the efficacy mark, 
just as if they came across the mark on a product label with no prior 
explanation of what the mark could mean. Participants would rate all of 
the efficacy marks for understandability and usefulness, and then 
indicate a preferred choice. EPA would use this information to 
formulate decisions and

[[Page 33752]]

policies affecting future labeling of insect repellents. The ultimate 
goal of this activity is to help the consumer to effectively use the 
information on the label to select the insect repellent product most 
likely to meet their needs and readily understand label instructions 
regarding safe product use.
    Responses to this collection of information are voluntary. One 
survey would be conducted over the life of this ICR. The collected 
information could be used to revise insect repellent product labels and 
to create other user friendly consumer information materials. By 
enabling consumers to make better choices in regard to purchasing and 
using products intended to protect their health, EPA will more 
effectively carry out its mandate to protect the public from 
unreasonable risks to human health.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 15 
minutes per response. Burden is defined in 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Respondents/Affected Entities: members of the general public would 
participate in the survey.
    Estimated Number of Potential Respondents: 3000.
    Frequency of Response: One time.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 750 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $15,675.
    Changes in the Estimates: This is a new collection.

    Dated: June 3, 2011.

Director, Collection Strategies Division.
