Title: Recordkeeping Requirements 

for Certified Applicators Using 1080 

Collars for Livestock Protection. 

ICR Status: This is a request to renew 

an existing approved collection. This 

ICR is scheduled to expire on May 31, 

2007. Under OMB regulations, the 

Agency may continue to conduct or 

sponsor the collection of information 

while this submission is pending at 

OMB. This ICR describes the nature of 

the information collection and its 

estimated burden and cost. 

Abstract: This ICR affects 

approximately 40 certified pesticide 

applicators who utilize 1080 toxic 

collars for livestock protection. Four 

states (Montana, New Mexico, South 

Dakota, and Wyoming) monitor the 

program, and five pesticide registrants 

are required to keep records of: (a) 

Number of collars purchased; (b) 

number of collars attached on livestock; 

(c) pasture(s) where collared livestock 

were placed; (d) number and locations 

of livestock found with ruptured or 

punctured collars and the apparent 

cause of the damage; (e) the dates of 

each attachment, inspection, and 

removal; (f) number, dates, and 

approximate location of all collars lost; 

(g) locations, and dates of all suspected 

poisonings of humans, domestic 

animals or non-target wild animals 

resulting from collar use location and 

species data on each animal poisoned as 

an apparent result of the toxic collar. 

Applicators maintain records, and the 

registrants/lead agencies do monitoring 

studies and submit the reports. These 

records are monitored by either the: (a) 

State lead agencies; (b) EPA regional 

offices; or (c) the registrants. The 

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA, 

the Agency) receives annual monitoring 

reports from registrants or State lead 

agencies. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 9 hours per 

response for registrant respondents; 40 

hours per response for certified 

applicator respondents; and 77 hours 

per response for State agency 

respondents per response. Burden 

means the total time, effort, or financial 

resources expended by persons to 

generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or 

provide information to or for a Federal 

agency. This includes the time needed 

to review instructions; develop, acquire, 

install, and utilize technology and 

systems for the purposes of collecting, 

validating, and verifying information, 

processing and maintaining 

information, and disclosing and 

providing information; adjust the 

existing ways to comply with any 

previously applicable instructions and 

requirements which have subsequently 

changed; train personnel to be able to 

respond to a collection of information; 

search data sources; complete and 

review the collection of information; 

and transmit or otherwise disclose the 

information. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Entities potentially affected by this 

action are pesticide and other 

agricultural manufacturers (NAICS 

325320), e.g., pesticide registrants 

whose products include 1080 collars; 

and government establishments 

primarily engaged in the administration 

of environmental quality programs 

(NAICS 9241), e.g., states implementing 

a 1080 collar monitoring program. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

49. 

Frequency of Response: Annual. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

1,953 hours. 

Estimated Total Annual Labor Cost: 

$70,261. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase of 200 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with that identified in the ICR currently 

approved by OMB. This increase reflects 

EPA’s estimate of increased numbers of 

certified applicators (from 35 certified 

applicators in 2003 to 40 in the current 

ICR). This change is an adjustment.

Title: NESHAP for Mineral Wool 

Production (Renewal). 

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 

1799.04, OMB Control Number 2060–

0362. 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on June 30, 2007. Under OMB 

regulations, the Agency may continue to 

conduct or sponsor the collection of 

information while this submission is 

pending at OMB. 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 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 in certain EPA regulations is 

consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. 

Abstract: The National Emission 

Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants 

(NESHAP) for Mineral Wool Production 

(40 CFR part 63, subpart DDD) were 

proposed on May 8, 1997, and 

promulgated on June 1, 1999. Owners/ 

operators of mineral wool production 

plants are required to install fabric filter 

bag leak detection systems and then 

initiate corrective action procedures in 

the event of an operating problem. 

Owners/operators subject to NESHAP 

subpart DDD must also continuously 

monitor and record: (1) The operating 

temperature of each thermal incinerator, 

(2) cupola production (melt) rate; and 

(3) for each curing oven, the 

formaldehyde content of each binder 

formulation used to manufacture 

bonded products. 

Owners/operators of affected mineral 

wool production facility must submit 

initial notifications (where applicable) 

performance test and periodic reports. 

Owners or operators are also required to 

maintain records of the occurrence and 

duration of any startup, shutdown, or 

malfunction in the operation of an 

affected facility, or any period during 

which the monitoring system is 

inoperative. Semiannual reports are also 

required. These notifications, reports, 

and records are essential in determining 

compliance; and are required, in 

general, of all sources subject to 

NESHAP. 

Any owner or operator subject to the 

provisions of this part shall maintain a 

file of these measurements, and retain 

the file for at least five years following 

the date of such measurements, 

maintain reports and records. All 

reports are sent to the delegated State or 

local authority. In the event that there 

is no such delegated authority, the 

reports are sent directly to the EPA 

regional office. This information is 

being collected to assure compliance 

with 40 CFR part 63, subpart DDD as 

authorized in section 112 and 114(a) of 

the Clean Air Act. The required 

information consists of emissions data 

and other information that have been 

determined to be private. 

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 are listed 

in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15, 

and are identified on the form and/or 

instrument, if applicable. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 126 hours per 

response. Burden means the total time, 

effort, or financial resources expended 

by persons to generate, maintain, retain, 

or disclose or provide information to or 

for a Federal agency. This includes the 

time needed to review instructions; 

develop, acquire, install, and utilize 

technology and systems for the purposes 

of collecting, validating, and verifying 

information, processing and 

maintaining information, and disclosing 

and providing information; adjust the 

existing ways to comply with any 

previously applicable instructions and 

requirements; train personnel to be able 

to respond to a collection of 

information; search data sources; 

complete and review the collection of 


cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 72 / Monday, April 16, 2007 / Notices 18987 

information; and transmit or otherwise 

disclose the information. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Mineral wool production. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

12. 

Frequency of Response: Initially, and 

semiannually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

3,018. 

Estimated Total Capital and 

Operations & Maintenance (O&M) 

Annual Costs: $9,000, which includes 

no annualized capital/startup costs and 

$9,000 in annual O&M costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is no 

change in the labor hours or cost in this 

ICR compared to the previous ICR. This 

is due to two considerations. First, the 

regulations have not changed over the 

past three years and are not anticipated 

to change over the next three years. 

Secondly, the growth rate for the 

industry is very low, negative or nonexistent, so there is no significant 

change in the overall burden.
