Abstract: EPA uses contractors to 

perform services throughout the nation 

with regard to environmental 

emergencies involving the release or 

threatened release of oil, radioactive 

materials or hazardous chemicals that 

may potentially affect communities and 

the surrounding environment. The 

Agency may request contractors 

responding to any of these types of 

incidents to conduct background checks 

and apply government-established 

suitability criteria in Title 5 of the CFR 

(Administrative Personnel), Sections 

731.104 (Appointments Subject to 

Investigation), 732.201 (Sensitivity 

Level Designations and Investigative 

Requirements), and 736.102 (Notice to 

Investigative Sources), when 

determining whether employees are 

acceptable to perform on given sites or 

on specific projects. In addition to 

emergency response contractors, EPA 

may require background checks for 

contractor personnel working in 

sensitive sites or sensitive projects. The 

background checks and application of 

the government’s suitability criteria 

must be completed prior to contract 

employee performance. The contractor 

shall maintain records associated with 

all background checks. Background 

checks cover citizenship or valid visa 

status, criminal convictions, weapons 

offenses, felony convictions, and parties 

prohibited from receiving federal 

contracts. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: Private 

Contractors. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Required to obtain or retain a benefit 

under 5 CFR 731.104, 732.201 and 

736.102. 

Estimated number of respondents: 

1,000. 

Frequency of response: Annual. 

Total estimated burden: 1,000 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $190,900 (per 

year), which includes no annualized 

capital or operation and maintenance 

costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase of 450 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. This is an adjustment to correct 

an error made when the current ICR was 

approved. While the currently approved 

supporting statement included 1,000 

burden hours, this number was 

incorrectly entered into OMB’s system 

as 450 hours. The correct hour burden, 

1,000 hours, has not changed.

Deputy Director, Office of Information 

Collection.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. General Information 

A. Does this action apply to me? 

This action is directed to the public 

in general. Although this action may be 

of particular interest to those persons 

who conduct or sponsor research on 

pesticides, the Agency has not 

attempted to describe all the specific 

entities that may be affected by this 

action. 

B. What should I consider as I prepare 

my comments for EPA? 

1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this 

information to EPA through 

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 preparing and submitting your 

comments, see the commenting tips at 

http://www.epa.gov/dockets/

comments.html. 

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 

discussed in this document, compared 

to the general population. 

II. What action is the Agency taking? 

Under section 5 of the Federal 

Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide 

Act (FIFRA), 7 U.S.C. 136c, EPA can 

allow manufacturers to field test 

pesticides under development. 

Manufacturers are required to obtain an 

EUP before testing new pesticides or 

new uses of pesticides if they conduct 

experimental field tests on 10 acres or 

more of land or one acre or more of 

water. 

Pursuant to 40 CFR 172.11(a), the 

Agency has determined that the 

following EUP application may be of 

regional and national significance, and 

therefore is seeking public comment on 

the EUP application: 

Submitter: Syngenta Crop Protection, 

LLC (100–EUP–RRA). 

Pesticide Chemical: 

Chlorantraniliprole. 

Summary of Request: Syngenta Crop 

Protection, LLC, has submitted an EUP 

application for 100–EUP–RRA for the 

termiticide Altriset containing the active 

ingredient chlorantraniliprole, to test a 

defined treatment on or around 100–125 

residential and commercial structures 

infested with subterranean termites. 

Proposed shipment/use dates are 

February 1, 2015 through December 1, 

2017. The total quantity of product 

proposed for shipment/use is 510 

pounds of formulated product (94 

pounds active ingredient). The states 

involved include Alabama, Arizona, 

Arkansas, California, Florida, Georgia, 

Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, 

Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, 

Nebraska, Nevada, North Carolina, 

Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, 

Texas, and Virginia. 

Following the review of the 

application and any comments and data 

received in response to this solicitation, 

EPA will decide whether to issue or 

deny the EUP request, and if issued, the 

conditions under which it is to be 

conducted. Any issuance of an EUP will 

be announced in the Federal Register. 

Authority: 7 U.S.C. 136 et seq.
