SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. What information is EPA particularly 

interested in? 

Pursuant to PRA section 3506(c)(2)(A) 

(44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)), EPA 

specifically solicits comments and 

information to enable it to: 

1. Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

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. 


wreier-aviles on DSK5TPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 198 / Friday, October 12, 2012 / Notices 62233 

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 should I consider when I 

prepare my comments for EPA? 

You may find the following 

suggestions helpful for preparing your 

comments: 

1. Explain your views as clearly as 

possible and provide specific examples. 

2. Describe any assumptions that you 

used. 

3. Provide copies of any technical 

information and/or data you used that 

support your views. 

4. If you estimate potential burden or 

costs, explain how you arrived at the 

estimate that you provide. 

5. Provide specific examples to 

illustrate your concerns. 

6. Offer alternative ways to improve 

the collection activity. 

7. Make sure to submit your 

comments by the deadline identified 

under DATES. 

8. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, 

be sure to identify the docket ID number 

assigned to this action in the subject 

line on the first page of your response. 

You may also provide the name, date, 

and Federal Register citation. 

III. What information collection activity 

or ICR does this action apply to? 

Affected Entities: Entities potentially 

affected by this ICR include pesticide 

registrants, which may be identified by 

the North American Industrial 

Classification System (NAICS) code 

32532, pesticide and other agricultural 

chemical manufacturing. 

Title: Pesticide Data Call-In Program. 

ICR number: EPA ICR No. 2288.01. 

OMB control number: OMB Control 

No. 2070–0174. 

ICR status: This ICR is currently 

scheduled to expire on November 30, 

2012. EPA will be seeking a short 

renewal of the currently approved ICR. 

This short renewal will provide 

additional time to allow EPA to finish 

working to restructure the ICR, improve 

the electronic forms and instructions, 

and consult with stakeholders and OMB 

on those ICR changes and the 

corresponding adjustments to the 

burden estimates. This extension is 

necessary because the ICR covers 

ongoing activities that are required to 

support the statutorily mandated 

pesticide reviews. 

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: Under the Federal 

Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide 

Act (FIFRA), every pesticide product 

must be registered with EPA. An 

applicant for registration must supply 

data to demonstrate that the pesticide 

product will not cause ‘‘unreasonable 

adverse effects’’ on humans or to the 

environment. Under the Federal Food, 

Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), EPA 

must determine, from data supplied by 

the applicant or registrant, that the level 

of pesticide residues in food and feed 

will be safe for human consumption, 

defined as ‘‘a reasonable certainty that 

no harm’’ will result from exposures to 

pesticide residues. Although data is 

provided with the initial applications, 

the Agency issues Data Call-Ins (DCIs) 

when it has determined that more 

information is necessary to make the 

necessary decision pursuant to the 

mandates in FIFRA and FFDCA. 

The programs represented in this 

proposed ICR renewal and 

consolidation share a common statutory 

authority, section 3(c)(2)(B) of FIFRA, 

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. EPA’s 

determination that additional data are 

needed can occur for various reasons, 

with the following four reasons being 

the most common: 

1. Reregistration program. Section 4 of 

FIFRA requires EPA to re-assess the 

health and safety data for all pesticide 

active ingredients registered before 

November 1, 1984, to ‘‘reregister’’ them, 

i.e., determine whether these ‘‘older’’ 

pesticides meet the criteria for 

registration that would be expected of a 

pesticide being registered today for the 

first time. FIFRA section 4 directs EPA 

to use FIFRA section 3(c)(2)(B) authority 

to obtain the required data. Although 

the Reregistration Eligibility Decisions 

are complete, the Agency may still need 

to issue DCIs to close out the program. 

2. Registration review program. 

Section 3(g) of FIFRA contains 

provisions to help achieve the goal of 

reviewing each pesticide every 15 years 

to assure that the pesticide continues to 

pose no risk of unreasonable adverse 

effects on human health or the 

environment. FIFRA section 3(g) 

instructs EPA to use the FIFRA section 

3(c)(2)(B) authority to obtain the 

required data. 

3. Special review program. Though 

rare, EPA may conduct a special review 

if EPA believes that a pesticide poses 

risks of unreasonable adverse effects on 

human health or the environment. 

Section 3(c)(2)(B) of FIFRA provides a 

means of obtaining any needed data. 

4. Anticipated residue/percent crop 

treated information. Under section 408 

of FFDCA, before a pesticide may be 

used on food or feed crops, the Agency 

must establish a tolerance for the 

pesticide residues on that crop or 

establish an exemption from the 

requirement to have a tolerance. Section 

408(b)(2)(E) and (F) of FFDCA authorize 

the use of anticipated or actual residue 

(ARs) data and percent crop treated 

(PCT) data to establish, modify, 

maintain, or revoke a tolerance for a 

pesticide. The FFDCA requires that if 

AR data are used, data must be reviewed 

five years after a tolerance is initially 

established. If PCT data are used, the 

FFDCA affords EPA the discretion to 

obtain additional data if any or all of 

several conditions are met. 

The Agency issues DCIs when it has 

determined that more information is 

necessary to make decision about 

pesticides pursuant to the mandates in 

FIFRA and FFDCA. Agency decisions 

requiring additional data are based on 

the data requirements set forth in 40 

CFR parts 150 through 180, with the 

majority of the data requirements 

captured in 40 CFR parts 158 and 161. 

Burden statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to range form 59 to 13,636 

hours per response, depending on the 

review program and type of DCI issued. 

Burden is defined in 5 CFR 1320.3(b). 

The ICR provides a detailed explanation 

of this estimate, which is only briefly 

summarized here: 

Frequency of collection: On occasion. 

Estimated number of potential 

respondents: 1,643. 

Estimated number of total annual 

responses: 184. 

Estimated total annual burden on 

respondents: 262,301 hours. 


wreier-aviles on DSK5TPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
62234 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 198 / Friday, October 12, 2012 / Notices 

Estimated total annual costs: 

$12,506,726. 

Changes in the estimates: The total 

estimated burden for this ICR is 

unchanged from that currently approved 

by OMB. 

IV. What is the next step in the process 

for this ICR? 

EPA intends to submit the ICR to 

OMB for review and a short term 

approval (i.e., 12 months) pursuant to 5 

CFR 1320.12. EPA will issue another 

Federal Register document 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. If you have any 

questions about this ICR or the approval 

process, please contact the person listed

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Information About Pavillion Ground 

Water Investigation 

Pavillion, Wyoming is located in 

Fremont County, about 20 miles 

northwest of Riverton. The concern at 

the site is potential ground water 

contamination, based on resident 

complaints about smells, tastes, and 

adverse changes in water quality of their 

domestic wells. In collaboration with 

ORD, Region 8 has been conducting a 

ground water investigation. The purpose 

of this ground water investigation is to 

better understand the basic ground 

water hydrology and how the 

constituents of concern may be 

occurring in the aquifer. More
