Title: National Pollutant Discharge 

Elimination System (NPDES) Permits for 

Point Source Discharges from the 

Application of Pesticides to Waters of 

the United States. 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 2397.02, 

OMB Control No. 2040–0284. 

ICR Status: This ICR is currently 

scheduled to expire on 11/30/2014. 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: This draft ICR calculates the 

burden and costs associated with 

information collection and reporting 

activities from EPA and state NPDES 

general permits for point source 

discharges from the application of 

pesticides to waters of the United States. 

On November 27, 2006, EPA issued a 

final rule (hereinafter called the ‘‘2006 

NPDES Pesticides Rule’’) clarifying 

circumstances in which an NPDES 

permit was not required to apply 

pesticide to, or over, including near, 

waters of the U.S. On January 9, 2009, 

the Sixth Circuit Court vacated EPA’s 

2006 NPDES Pesticides Rule. 

As a result of the Court’s decision, 

beginning October 31, 2011 NPDES 

permits were required for discharges to 

waters of the U.S. from the application 

of biological pesticides and chemical 

pesticides that leave a residue. 

Regulations governing permit 

requirements for NPDES discharges are 

codified at 40 CFR parts 122. This draft 

ICR includes information submitted or 

recorded by permittees as well as 

information used primarily by 

permitting authorities. The permitting 

authority will use the information to 

assess permittee compliance and 

modify/add new permit requirements as 

appropriate. The estimated burden in 

this draft ICR is based on EPA’s NPDES 

Pesticide General Permit (PGP). 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 0.7 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 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. 

The draft ICR provides a detailed 

explanation of the agency’s estimate, 

which is only briefly summarized here: 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 365,047 (365,000 

permittees, 47 permitting authorities [46 

states and Virgin Islands]). 

Frequency of response: varies from 

once, every 5 years, to occasionally as 

needed. 

Estimated total number of responses: 

1,283,531 (1,276,395 by permittees, 

7,136 by permitting authorities [i.e., 

states, tribes, and territories]). 

Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: 3.5 

(1,283,531 responses divided by 365,047 

respondents). 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

834,756 hours (828,141 hours for 

permittees and 6,615 hours for 

permitting authorities [i.e., states, tribes, 

and territories]). 

Estimated total annual cost: 

$38,662,462 ($38,462,682 for permittees 

and $199,780 for permitting authorities), 

includes $0 annualized capital or O&M 

costs. 

Are there changes in the estimates from 

the last approval? 

There is a decrease of 12,896 hours in 

the total estimated respondent burden 

compared with that identified in the ICR 

currently approved by OMB. EPA 

expects that the 2016 PGP will be 

similar to the 2011 PGP. All of the 

decrease in burden is attributable to the 

shift from the 2011 PGP to the 2016 PGP 

in year 3 of this draft ICR when 

permittees renewing their coverage 

would not need to develop a new 

Pesticide Discharge Management Plan. 

What is the next step in the process for 

this ICR? 

EPA will consider the comments 

received on this notice and amend the 

draft ICR as appropriate. The final ICR 

package will then be submitted to OMB 

for review and approval pursuant to 5 

CFR 1320.12. At that time, EPA will 

issue another Federal Register notice 

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 draft ICR 

or the approval process, please contact 

the technical person listed under FOR

II. Background 

EPA is interested in soliciting input

logo that represents the Design for the 

Environment Program. While EPA does 

not intend to formally respond to all 

comments that are submitted, EPA will

selects a new DfE logo that accurately 

reflects the program’s efforts to advance 

human and environmental health 

protection through the labeling of safer 

products. 

The EPA would like the DfE logo 

redesign to achieve the following: 

• Better convey the scientific rigor 

and benefits of the program (e.g., safer 

for human health) with a logo that is 

easier to display on products, materials, 

and in digital media, 

• Increase consumer and I/I 

purchaser recognition of products 

bearing EPA’s Safer Product Label, and 

• Encourage innovation and 

development of safer chemicals and 

chemical-based products.
