**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  I. What information is EPA particularly interested in?

to:

1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the


### 39700 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 129 / Thursday, July 5, 2012 / Notices

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 information collection activity or ICR does this action apply to?

Affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this ICR are certified applicators and agricultural pesticide handlers, soil fumigant registrants, state and tribal lead agencies, and EPA.

Title: Soil Fumigant Risk Mitigation. ICR number: EPA ICR No. 2451.01. OMB control number: OMB Control No. 2070-[new].

ICR status: This ICR is for a new information collection activity. An 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 numbers for EPA’s regulations in title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), after appearing in the Federal Register when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, are displayed either by publication in the Federal Register or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers for certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.

Abstract: EPA’s Office of Pesticide Programs, under the Office of Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention, will use the information collected under this ICR to ensure that risk mitigation measures necessary for reregistration eligibility for certain soil fumigant chemicals are adequately implemented. The programs and activities represented in this new ICR are the result of the Agency exercising the authority of section 3(c)(2)(B) of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act, which authorizes EPA to require pesticide registrants to generate and submit data to the Agency, when such data are needed to maintain an existing registration of a pesticide. Responses to this collection of information are required to obtain or retain a benefit.

Burden statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 4.3 hours per response. Burden is defined in 5 CFR 1320.3(b).

The ICR provides a detailed explanation of this estimate, which is only briefly summarized here:

Estimated total number of potential respondents: 17,853.

Frequency of response: On occasion. Estimated total average number of responses for each respondent: 2.5.

Estimated total annual burden hours: 191,261.

Estimated total annual costs: $6,283,510.

This includes an estimated burden cost of $6,283,510 and an estimated cost of $0 for capital investment or maintenance and operational costs.
III. What is the next step in the process for this ICR?

EPA will consider the comments received and amend the ICR as appropriate. The final ICR package will then be submitted to OMB for review and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.12. EPA will issue another Federal Register notice pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to announce the submission of the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to submit additional comments to OMB.
