Records Governing Off-the-Record 

Communications; Public Notice 

This constitutes notice, in accordance 

with 18 CFR 385.2201(b), of the receipt 

of prohibited and exempt off-the-record 

communications. 

Order No. 607 (64 FR 51222, 

September 22, 1999) requires 

Commission decisional employees, who 

make or receive a prohibited or exempt 

off-the-record communication relevant 

to the merits of a contested proceeding, 

to deliver to the Secretary of the 

Commission, a copy of the 

communication, if written, or a 

summary of the substance of any oral 

communication. 

Prohibited communications are 

included in a public, non-decisional file 

associated with, but not a part of, the 

decisional record of the proceeding. 

Unless the Commission determines that 

the prohibited communication and any 

responses thereto should become a part 

of the decisional record, the prohibited 

off-the-record communication will not 

be considered by the Commission in 

reaching its decision. Parties to a 

proceeding may seek the opportunity to 

respond to any facts or contentions 

made in a prohibited off-the-record 

communication, and may request that 

the Commission place the prohibited 

communication and responses thereto 

in the decisional record. The 

Commission will grant such a request 

only when it determines that fairness so 

requires. Any person identified below as 

having made a prohibited off-the-record 

communication shall serve the 

document on all parties listed on the 

official service list for the applicable 

proceeding in accordance with Rule 

2010, 18 CFR 385.2010. 

Exempt off-the-record

decisional record of the proceeding, 

unless the communication was with a 

cooperating agency as described by 40 

CFR 1501.6, made under 18 CFR 

385.2201(e)(1)(v). 

The following is a list of off-therecord communications recently

Abstract: EPA’s Design for the 

Environment (DfE) Formulator Product 

Recognition Program formally 

recognizes safer products where all 

ingredients have an environmental and 

human health profile showing that they 

are the safest in their functional use 

class. Under the encouragement of this 

program, leading companies have made 

great progress in developing safer, 

highly effective chemical products. 

Since the program’s inception in 1997, 

formulators have used the program as a 

portal to OPPT’s unique chemical 

expertise, information resources, and 

guidance on greener chemistry. DfE 

Formulator partners enjoy Agency 

recognition, including the use of the DfE 

logo on products with the safest 

possible formulations. In the future, 

EPA expects much greater program 

participation due to rising demand for 

safer products. This information 

collection enables EPA to accommodate 

participation by more than nine 

formulators each year and to enhance 

program transparency. 

Information collection activities 

associated with this program will assist 

the Agency in meeting the goals of the 

Pollution Prevention Act (PPA) (42 

U.S.C. 13101 et seq.) by providing 

resources and recognition for businesses 

committed to promoting and using safer 

chemical products. In turn, the program 

will help businesses meet corporate 

sustainability goals by providing the 

means to, and an objective measure of, 

environmental stewardship. Investment 

analysts and advisers seek these types of 

measures in evaluating a corporation’s 

sustainability profile and investment 

worthiness. Formulator Program 

partnership is an important impetus for 

prioritizing and completing the 

transition to safer chemical products. 

The Formulator Program is also needed 

to promote greater use of safer chemical 

products by companies unaware of the 

benefits of such a change. EPA has 

tailored its request for information, and 

especially the Formulator Product 

Recognition Program application forms, 

to ensure that the Agency requests only 

that information essential to verify 

applicants’ eligibility for recognition. 

Responses to the collection of 

information are voluntary. Respondents 

may claim all or part of a notice 

confidential. EPA will disclose 

information that is covered by a claim 

of confidentiality only to the extent 

permitted by, and in accordance with, 

the procedures in TSCA section 14 and 

40 CFR part 2. 

Respondents/affected entities: Entities 

potentially affected by this action are 

establishments engaged in the 

formulation of end-use, for-sale 

chemical products, identified by NAICS 

codes 325510 (Paint and Coating 

Manufacturing), 325611 (Soap and 

Other Detergent Manufacturing), 325612 

(Polish and Other Sanitation Good 

Manufacturing), 325910 (Printing Ink 

Manufacturing), 325992 (Photographic 

Film, Paper, Plate, and Chemical 

Manufacturing), and 325998 (All Other 

Miscellaneous Chemical Product and 

Preparation Manufacturing). 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Voluntary. 

Estimated number of respondents: 66 

(total). 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Total estimated burden: 1,193 hours 

per year. Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $396,800 per 

year, including operation and 

maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase of 502 hours, as well as a cost 

increase of $14,000, in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. This increase reflects EPA’s 

higher estimate of the number of likely 

respondents to this information 

collection. This change is an 

adjustment. The Supporting Statement 

provides additional detail concerning 

the change in burden estimate.
