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

the PRA, EPA is soliciting comments 

and information to enable it to: (i) 

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; (ii) evaluate the 

accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the 

burden of the proposed collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used; 

(iii) enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (iv) 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. 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. At that time, EPA 

will issue another Federal Register 

notice to announce the submission of 

the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to 

submit additional comments to OMB. 

Abstract: Gasoline combustion results 

in the formation of engine deposits that 

contribute to increased emissions. 

Detergent additives deter deposit 

formation. The Clean Air Act requires 

gasoline to contain a detergent additive. 

The regulations at 40 CFR 80—Subpart 

G specify certification requirements for 

manufacturers of detergent additives, 

recordkeeping or reporting requirements 

for blenders of detergents into gasoline 

or post-refinery component (any 

gasoline blending stock or any 

oxygenate which is blended with 

gasoline subsequent to the gasoline 

refining process), and reporting or 

recordkeeping requirements for 

manufacturers, transferors, or 

transferees of detergents, gasoline, or 

post-refinery component (PRC). These 

requirements ensure that (1) a detergent 

is effective before it is certified by EPA, 

(2) a certified detergent, at the minimum 

concentration necessary to be effective 

(known as the lowest additive 

concentration (LAC)), is blended into 

gasoline, and (3) only gasoline which 

contains a certified detergent at its LAC 

is delivered to the consumer. EPA 

maintains a list of certified gasoline 

detergents, which is publicly available. 

As of March 2014, there were 374 

certified detergents and 17 detergent 

manufacturers. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: 1,368. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

mandatory. 

Estimated number of respondents: 

69,504 (total). 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Total estimated burden: 220,181 

hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 

CFR 1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $20,180,587 (per 

year), includes $335,040 annualized 

capital or operation & maintenance 

costs. 

Changes in Estimates: The previous 

clearance consisted of 220,181 hours 

(3.17 hours per response), labor costs of 

$18,500,528, and O&M costs of 

$335,040, for a total cost of $18,835,568. 

There is no increase of hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. The respondent universe and 

responses also remained the same in 

this collection. There was an increase in 

cost to the industry of $1,345,019 per 

year due to updated numbers used to 

calculate the industry burden and to 

account for inflation.

A. Does this action apply to me? 

You may be potentially affected by 

this action if you are an agricultural 

producer, food manufacturer, or 

pesticide manufacturer. The following 

list of North American Industrial 

Classification System (NAICS) codes is 

not intended to be exhaustive, but rather 

provides a guide to help readers 

determine whether this document 

applies to them. Potentially affected 

entities may include: 

• Crop production (NAICS code 111). 

• Animal production (NAICS code 

112).

code 32532). 

B. What should I consider as I prepare 

my comments for EPA? 

1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this 

information to EPA through 

www.regulations.gov or email. Clearly 

mark the part or all of the information 

that you claim to be CBI. For CBI 

information in a disk or CD–ROM that 

you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the 

disk or CD–ROM as CBI and then 

identify electronically within the disk or 

CD–ROM the specific information that 

is claimed as CBI. In addition to one 

complete version of the comment that 

includes information claimed as CBI, a 

copy of the comment that does not 

contain the information claimed as CBI 

must be submitted for inclusion in the 

public docket. Information so marked 

will not be disclosed except in 

accordance with procedures set forth in 

40 CFR part 2. 

2. Tips for preparing your comments. 

When submitting comments, remember 

to: 

i. Identify the document by docket ID 

number and other identifying 

information (subject heading, Federal 

Register date and page number). 

ii. Follow directions. The Agency may 

ask you to respond to specific questions 

or organize comments by referencing a 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 

or section number. 

iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; 

suggest alternatives and substitute 

language for your requested changes. 

iv. Describe any assumptions and 

provide any technical information and/ 

or data that you used. 

v. If you estimate potential costs or 

burdens, explain how you arrived at 

your estimate in sufficient detail to 

allow for it to be reproduced. 

vi. Provide specific examples to 

illustrate your concerns and suggest 

alternatives. 

vii. Explain your views as clearly as 

possible, avoiding the use of profanity 

or personal threats. 

viii. Make sure to submit your 

comments by the comment period 

deadline identified. 

3. Environmental justice. EPA seeks to 

achieve environmental justice, the fair 

treatment and meaningful involvement 

of any group, including minority and/or 

low income populations, in the 

development, implementation, and 

enforcement of environmental laws, 

regulations, and policies. To help 

address potential environmental justice 

issues, the Agency seeks information on 

any groups or segments of the 

population who, as a result of their 

location, cultural practices, or other 

factors, may have atypical or 

disproportionately high and adverse 

human health impacts or environmental 

effects from exposure to the pesticide(s) 

discussed in this document, compared 

to the general population. 

II. What action is the Agency taking? 

Under section 18 of the Federal 

Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide 

Act (FIFRA) (7 U.S.C. 136p), at the 

discretion of the EPA Administrator, a 

Federal or State agency may be 

exempted from any provision of FIFRA 

if the EPA Administrator determines 

that emergency conditions exist which 

require the exemption. The Wyoming 

Department of Agriculture has requested 

the EPA Administrator to issue a 

specific exemption for the use of 

diflubenzuron on alfalfa to control 

grasshoppers and Mormon crickets. 

Information in accordance with 40 CFR 

part 166 was submitted as part of this 

request. 

As part of this request, the applicant 

asserts that projected population levels 

for these damaging insect pests are 

expected to be extremely high for the 

2014 season. The applicant claims that 

registered alternatives will not provide 

adequate control to avert significant 

economic losses from occurring. 

The Applicant proposes to make no 

more than two applications of 

diflubenzuron, at a rate of 0.032 lbs. 

active ingredient (a.i.) (equivalent to 2 

fl. oz. of product containing 2 lbs. a.i. 

per gallon). Application could be made 

on up to 26,000 acres of alfalfa, from the 

date of approval, if granted, until 

October 31, 2014, in the state of 

Wyoming. If the maximum proposed 

acreage were treated at the maximum 

rate, a total of 814 lbs. a.i. (407 gallons 

formulated product) could be applied. 

This notice does not constitute a 

decision by EPA on the application 

itself. The regulations governing FIFRA 

section 18 require publication of a 

notice of receipt of an application for a 

specific exemption proposing use which 

is supported by the Inter-Regional 

Project Number 4 (IR–4) program and 

has been requested in 5 or more 

previous years, and a petition for 

tolerance has not yet been submitted to 

the Agency. 

The notice provides an opportunity 

for public comment on the application. 

The Agency will review and consider 

all comments received during the 

comment period in determining 

whether to issue the specific exemption 

requested by the Wyoming Department 

of Agriculture.
